Ask for Byron the Entertainer

Our tour guide Byron the Entertainer made it so fun even though it was 90 degrees. I felt like we were the lucky ones for getting him as our guide. The tour included lots of jokes, sing-alongs and fun stories and was great for our family with young kids. Byron kept it light. The tour is a great way to see a lot of DC quickly and enjoy the sites at night.

Kareem the ultimate tour guide

Please pick this experience. KAREEM WAS THE BEST TOUR GUIDE EVER. I’m the person who wants to do all the tourist things always. I’m also shy but Kareem had me laughing and answering questions! Some I got right and some I got wrong. I left with so much more knowledge. Kareem walked us to every monument and explained what we saw. I could have done this all on my own but I’m so thankful I didn’t, it’s guides like him that keep me coming back. I’m going to do another tour.. and I want to request Kareem when I do!

Live History on the Move.

Sally , our guide was terrific. She had a phenomenal grasp of history and made everyone feel welcomed. Godfrey manipulated the bus with dexterity. I think that the LIncoln Monument should be first , this would enable the tourist an opportunity to see this monument, the Vietnam and Korean Monuments in daylight Tour is certainly wotrh the money.

Washington DC Monuments and Memorials Night Tour

Syndee_Z, Jul 2026

Amazing!

This was a very personalized experience. Our driver, Ken, was very knowledgeable about history, as well as fun facts. He went above and beyond to make our experience extra special since the light show at the Smithsonian ‘castle’ was only for that night and one other. He did his best to get us near it, even though there were many roadblocks. Ken knew the best angles to view each memorial - especially the Iwo Jima. He even knew which monuments had bathrooms! His concern for every passenger was evident in his ability to remember each one of us and making sure we were all back on the bus after each stop.

George was an amazing tour guide. He had so much knowledge and it was clear he enjoys being a tour guide. To be able to visit so many of the monuments without the hassle of driving was worth every penny!! The history lesson along the way was awesome. My kids (11 and 8) learned so much.

Unlimited Bikes DC is a solid bike company with amazing tour guides! Our guide, Lorenzo, was a phenomenal guide, he was patient, kind, knowledgeable, and an easy going guy! Him being a former national park ranger, he knew plenty about each monument/memorial. He also kept talks brief and concise that gave us more time at the site. Our favorite was the TJ memorial beautiful way to end the night! Thanks Lorenzo!

Ghosts of Georgetown & The Exorcist Steps Walking Tour

Joseph_L, Jul 2026

Highly entertaining, really worth the money. But there's uneven terrain, and annoying/uncomfortable nature during Summer

I forgot my guide's name (he's the head tour guide) but he was very good, I maybe a bit biased given my obsession with the supernatural / paranormal (I love watching Slapped Ham on YouTube) but I think he's an amazing storyteller and is also very funny at the same time, I laughed really hard during it. It was very interesting to learn about these historical figures and American history in general, but I maybe biased given I'm Canadian so I hardly know a thing about American history. Before the tour began, I do recall one of his colleagues being very funny as well, so I take it he vetted the guides to be very funny. I'm from Toronto so I wasn't used to the uneven terrain so you do have to watch your step and at times there's quite a bit of steep inclines and declines so I recommend hitting the gym first, go on some incline treadmills or do leg weight training to prepare for it. There's quite a few bugs but they do offer bug spray which I regret declining. The heat is also quite harsh, but I'm only a tourist who isn't used to 40 Celsius temperatures, so definitely bring water and electrolytes to mix in if you're visiting from a colder city. It's very well worth the money, I really enjoyed it and I strongly recommend it. Also, I may have taken a picture of a ghost but maybe it's just the silhouette of a resident or just someone in what seems to be weird clothing so take pics and maybe you'll have some paranormal souvenirs to bring home
