DC in an evening
Amir was amazing! He had a lot of knowledge of the area and safely parked and escorted us around the city. Picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel and gave us an extensive VIP tour of all the sights! It was great as we had limited time. Would absolutely book again when we return.

Beyond grateful.
We could not have had a better experience! Our guide Alan went ABOVE and BEYOND for my family. I loved that he contacted us prior to our trip to get to know us and our needs...and boy do we have needs! I brought my parents to DC so that my father could visit the Vietnam Wall to say goodbye to those he lost. Both of my parents have very limited mobility, and to say that getting them to and from where we were going was difficult would be an understatement. Alan was patient, accommodating, and understanding. He is also VERY knowledgeable about the area and historically accurate.
I will be forever grateful to Alan for giving my dad such a great experience.
If you are planning to visit DC, you will not be disappointed booking a tour with Alan!

Gratitude for America’s Founding Fathers
Allen, our Guide, is extremely knowledgeable, covers high points, little known details about our nation’s cherished documents and history. He comes prepared with his own guide book/manual to accompany his narrative. Additionally, he is personable, relaxed, welcomes questions. I booked this tour so we would understand the overwhelming scope of The National Archives Museum in a condensed period of time. There were 3 of us touring with Allen; he is superb! Additionally, when you view the original documents and realize the depth of character & divine inspiration of our Founding Fathers, you will well up with gratitude for the greatest nation in the world! An experience we will never forget!

Private DC Tour with Maaz
This is the way to go for seeing the main DC monuments and sights for a quick 3 hour tour! Very personable and you are dropped off right in front of each stop. Plus, you get to go at your own pace. They also pick and drop you off right from your hotel. They also provided the best vehicle available to accommodate my wife’s bad hip!

National museum of art tour with Annemarie
Annemarie , our tour guide , was amazing and very knowledgeable with each and every exhibit. She was very patient and able to answer all of my inquisitive daughter’s questions! I love that it’s a small, intimate group size especially for my autistic daughter who gets easily overwhelmed within large groups. I highly recommend this tour, even if art isn’t your cup of tea, you will definitely learn and discover a newfound respect for the fine arts with Annemarie’s true passion within her words!

Memorable Experience
It’s a great introduction to the many things to see in DC. It was the first night of our first visit so it helped us determine our itinerary for the next few days. Keifer, our tour guide/driver was knowledgeable, friendly and very considerate of all of us.

Thank you for what you do!
I would first like to Thank you and Chris (our guide). Chris did an amazing job. My dad is an 81 year old navy vet and Chris got him to the places he really wanted to see that we had just spent the last 36 trying to figure out how to get him close enough to be able to walk to even one of these monuments. Chris made it happen. I would highly recommend this Company. The history we learned along the way was an excellent experience. My dad was able to walk to 3 before he was wore out but every single stop was not far from the monument. My fiancé and I got him the rest of the pictures. Thank you for what you do!

Perfect night-time trip.
Daniel was really informative and allotted enough time to take in the sights at each stop. I would definitely take this trip if I wanted to see D.C. at night with the monuments lit up. The van was comfortable with easy in/easy out access, especially for my husband who has mobility issues.

Annemarie was amazing!
Annemarie was absolutely amazing! She made sure no one was left behind and took the time to answer all of our questions thoroughly. She was incredibly thoughtful—giving us time to take photos and even offering to take pictures for us and others.
If you’re looking for a guide in DC who goes beyond general knowledge and shares deeper insights that most people wouldn’t know, Annemarie is the one to choose.
Thank you for such an incredible experience!

A Rich and Extraordinary Tour
We made the reservation for this trip knowing that my husband was only 5 weeks out from knee replacement and that it would be a challenge for any walking. We told the driver/owner this and he was more than accommodating and gracious. We simply needed to get out of our home and have mental stimulation. We are already planning a return trip with walking included. The tour was extraordinary and the owner has a broad and deep knowledge and understanding of our history, our national relics and current status of such. We had been to DC from NYC on several occasions in the past so we had piecemeal knowledge of this extraordinary city. His knowledge brought together so many aspects of our country's early beginnings, conflicts, wars and the monuments, buildings that are emblematic of those times. We even went to the Iwo Jima memorial which neither one of us had seen and were struck by its astonishing lifelike sense of movement, like the last soldier attempting to grasp the flagpole. We were both thrilled and sobered by all that our country has been through, all of the conflicts we have witnessed and look forward to having a continued emotional experience with our guide and owner once we can walk safely. This was a remarkable few hours for us with this knowledgeable guide who also provided asidesstories not usually found in guide books. Thank you -- we have been restored and look forward to being with you again.

A Knowledgeable, Respectful, and Engaging Guide with Humor!
Leigh was an outstanding guide at Arlington National Cemetery. She combined deep knowledge and respect with a great sense of humor that made the tour engaging and memorable. Her storytelling brought history to life in a meaningful way, and she made the whole experience both informative and uplifting. I highly recommend her to anyone visiting Arlington.

Meghan the entertainer tour guide
Meghan was very informative and truly knows her job. She is funny and very creative and entertaining in delivering information. She fully focused on just us even when people were asking questions. She made us feel special and showed us that we are her priority. She engaged in our questions even if it’s outside the realm of the tour. I highly recommend her

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Exclusive and customizable, Washington DC private sightseeing tours are especially great for visitors who want to see all of the city’s key landmarks in a short amount of time. With a private excursion—whether that’s by limousine, luxury SUV, or minivan—you’ll work with the tour operator and your driver to prioritize your must-visit locations, with plenty of time for photo ops. Most private sightseeing tours include hotel pick-up and drop-off, which can also be a huge time saver for those with limited hours to spend in the nation’s capital.
