Paul_K, Apr 2026

Arlington National Cemetery

Reid is a very good tour guide. He brought his experience as a Naval aviator to enhance the explanation of the many sites at Arlington. It was a very worthwhile tour because we were able to see and here about many of the grave sites and monuments which we would otherwise not have leaned about.

Loved this tour.

Dion was great! He was very knowledgeable and made the tour enjoyable and engaging. We loved the history and even my teen was practically at his side the whole tour because he didn’t want to miss anything. Shawn was great driving/navigating through unexpected DC street closures to get us to our destinations. And they squeezed in a LOT!! I was surprised. It was worth every penny.

Great tour with Derek and Kareem. This trip saves on walking and hits all the major sites in the National Mall. Boat ride was a bit chilly but really cool way to see the city. Derek was very knowledgeable and shared some interesting facts we wouldnt have gotten without the tour. Highly recommend.

Smithsonian "Big 3" Highlights Tour (Air & Space Entry Included)

Dylan_Y, Mar 2026

A great tour to get around the museums.

Wonderful guide Skye was friendly and had a wealth of knowledge about the area and of course the museums were a blast. It’s a walkabout so wear the right type of shoes and clothing as you go from place to place. You get to see all sorts of different buildings and architecture which is amazing and what agency’s offices are in . It’s a little fast paced but depending what time you go, the mid morning is a better time I think, you can backtrack to the other museums after the last one and spend as much time until closing to experience all it has to offer.

Amazing experience!

Do it!!!! I was with someone who had never been to DC before and this was the perfect way for them to get in all of the major monuments. Also, even if you’ve seen them before, seeing them at night is completely different and so worth it in addition to the knowledgeable guide who will give you fun and interesting facts throughout the tour. We had Joel, and he was fantastic. I cannot say enough good things. Highly recommend!!!
