Great tour!
Tour was great. Craig, the Driver and Larry and the Tour Guide were awesome. Larry, the Tour Guide was so funny and made everything interesting. Got lots of great pictures. We got water a snack. We could hear all the audio through the devices they gave us. Led lights were cool as well. The only thing I was not impressed with was the back of the van was a little warm. Raising the air flow helped a little bit, but there were no vents in the back.

Monuments at Dusk
Started out while it was still daylight - which was great. Allowed us to see two monument s in the daylight . . Time at each stop was great. Our tour guide gave great information in the Van and we toured alone at our pace at his set time limit., it was good.

Take the mount vernon tour!
Diego was an excellent tour guide! Mount Vernon is beautiful although the staff that work at the house rush you through it a bit. Diego answered any questions I was unable to ask the staff. He was even kind enough to take me on the tour in the rain, even though I was the only person that signed up.

Washington small group tour
Very informative. Nice to have someone telling you about the symbolism of statues and paintings, when things were done, and by whom. Also nice to have a small group. We saw other large groups of like 30 and I wouldn't have been able to discuss and ask questions.

Enjoyable trip
My family found the tour enjoyable. Our driver/guide was polite, informative, and flexible. We were allowed to prioritize desired sites based on our available time.
Be prepared for exorbitant prices charged by city vendors.
Make sure your selected vehicle is spacious enough to accommodate your entire party.
If you need to extend your tour, agree to an total amount due prior to the tour to avoid any last minute transactions.

Smithsonian multi venue tour in DC
The team were amazing. Our first time in DC and we were stymied by road closures for July 4th. We were a little lost and late, but made a call to the team and they instantly relaxed us and when we arrived late we were greeted with cold water and cool freshener towels before a team member, Ryan walked us to catch up with tour group. Our tour guide Dash was knowledgeable and authentic with great energy. The kids and I learnt so much through the tour of the Smithsonian museums and loved every minute of the tour. During walk in heat, other team members arrived with cold water and icy poles.

Excellent way to spend a few hours!!
This tour was very informative and gave key highlights to the area without needing to spend hours and hours reading plaques in different buildings on our own. It was a comfortable pace for all individuals in the group. Our guide, Debra, was not only knowledgeable about the area and different buildings but attentive to the people she led. We especially appreciated the tickets to the Senate and the House galleries and felt this was the perfect ending to a great day.

It's well worth the time...
It's well worth the time and money to see the monuments at night. George was an outstanding guide who picked us up at our hotel, and provided excellent commentary about the places we saw in Washington DC. He was friendly, funny, and very knowledgeable. I appreciated how quickly he responded via email and phone as needed. His vehicle was very clean and comfortable to ride in. Great tour!

Cara was a delight! We...
Cara was a delight! We really enjoyed our afternoon with her! The food was great, the conversation was amazing and we all had a wonderful time. There was just enough walking to burn off a good portion of the calories that we consumed. Will be recommending this for any other visitors that we have coming in to the area.

Great historically accurate, knowledgeable tour guide and tour experience!
I showed up late and Kenny still made it one of the best tours I've ever taken. We covered an incredible amount of ground — the White House, St. Elizabeth's mental institution near the new Mystics arena, Frederick Douglass' 9-acre hilltop estate, Mary McLeod Bethune's home, the first African American theater in the US (Howard Theater) where legends like Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, and Ella Fitzgerald performed. We wrapped up at the Lincoln and MLK Memorials — all before the African American Museum opened at noon.
This tour is deeply immersive and covers history you won't find in the standard education system. If you're visiting DC, carve out a full day for this experience. It's not just Black history — it's American history, told fully and honestly. Highly recommend Kenny and this tour.

Great tour!
We loved it! We had Davey Crockett and he was so realistic! It was more of a history tour than a ghost tour - so definitely family friendly. We have lived in DC our whole lives and learned many new things. It’s also nice to walk around the Capitol grounds at night! A unique experience. Davey is very knowledgeable of the history and it was easy to retain everything he said because of the fun storylines he framed! Definitely recommend this tour and the price is a steal! There are a few more that cost a bit more and I don’t think that’s worth it.

Fantastic visit!
Visiting Mount Vernon was such a fun and memorable experience! Even though the mansion was under construction and only certain rooms were open, it was still fascinating to tour and step back in time. The grounds were beautifully maintained, and the staff was wonderful—friendly, welcoming, and very knowledgeable. There was certainly a lot of information to take in, which made the visit all the more enriching. We also enjoyed the nice gift shop and the on-site restaurant, which added to the experience. Overall, a fantastic visit that I’d highly recommend!
