Eddie was great. Pentagon Memorial very touching and beautiful and he shares amazing stories. Very knowledgeable about all the history and structures. Great tour and nice to be picked up and dropped st our hotel.

We had an amazing time with Mr Eddie! He texted the day before to confirm pickup and arrived 15 mins early for our tour. He explained our stops and set expectations for our stops. As we drove he gave a history of DC while pointing out places of interest. He drove slow enough that we all had an opportunity to see what was being discussed. Our favorite stop was the Pentagon. He walked with us and gave a detailed account of the days events as well as details about the memorial itself. We could not have been more pleased with the entire experience! We loved the personal touch he provided for our family.

Fantastic!! Eddie was extremely knowledgeable. I had toured DC before but not my husband and son. He did not disappoint. We all saw and learned so much from him. We would do it again and again.

Wonderful tour! Eddie is very knowledgeable and personable. I have done several variations of the monuments tour over the years and this was by far the best night tour I’ve taken. Highly recommend.

Very knowledgeable tour guide. It was cold and some memorials not very well lit but we had a great tour with some great historical facts from our guide. Pentagon 911 memorial was beautiful at night
Michelle_P, Jan 2026
Eddie was terrific. His depth of knowledge in American history and the uniqueness of the DC area was fascinating.

In spite of light rain and chill, my son, granddaughter, and I thoroughly enjoyed our Monuments by Moonlight tour. Our guide, Ed, was extraordinarily knowledgeable and courteous. His passion for the city and its history was obvious.
I’ve seen the monuments several times before, but seeing them in the evening was a very different experience. As a former history teacher, I appreciated the factual commentary and a few personal stories about living in DC.
I highly recommend this tour.

Do not even think about a different nighttime tour of Washington monuments. This was an amazing way for our family to see some of the harder to get to monuments. Eddie was a fabulous guide! So much information. The Pentagon memorial was particularly impactful.
Lori_H, Sept 2025

Margo_B, May 2025
Fantastic!!! Guide was amazing, informative, understood our special needs son’s issues and answered every question we had. Loved the individual experience and especially the stop at the Pentagon 911 Mrmorial. He gave us so much detail at that sight.

Loved the personal experiences shared that brought this tour to life! Eddie and Tracie were both very knowledgeable on the history of each stop, as well as about anything else in the city. We enjoyed the small, private tour experience and would recommend this one to everyone!!!
Elizabeth_K, Mar 2025
Highly recommend, and I don't say this lightly. Eddie, the host was extremely knowledgeable and shared personal experiences at the monuments. It was obvious he was/is a history teacher. So good that we booked him for a tour to Mt Vernon
TammyLee_T, Jan 2025
This is a tour not-to-be-missed! We are locals and saw and heard things we never knew. Eddie is funny and empathetic. A fabulous and well-run evening! Thank you, Eddie!!!!

The Pentagon Memorial was very moving. Eddie brought the experience to reality with his personal insights and stories.
Danielle_P, Oct 2024
Eddie is a fantastic tour guide. He is so unbelievably knowledgeable about the history of DC, as well as the history of the U.S. He is very accommodating, patient, and an all around good person.
Our son is having surgery in DC, and this was the one activity we could do before getting admitted to the hospital. So glad we chose Eddie for our tour!
Gregory_S, Sept 2024
The tour provides a lot of information about the monuments of DC by a great tour guide. Great perspective of the military history.
Nicole_R, Sept 2024
Highly recommend this tour!!! Eddie was friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and very accommodating. This tour is a wonderful value that should be taken at the beginning of your DC visit.
Shari_M, Aug 2024
Our guide Eddie was absolutely the best and would highly recommend. I’ve been fortunate to be on many tours throughout the world and he is top of the list. Very knowledgeable on all that’s Washington, D.C. and surrounding area. I would recommend making this tour far in advance and at the beginning of your sightseeing. Next time I’m back in D.C. I will book Eddie.
donna_s, Jul 2024
Our tour guide Eddie was wonderful. So knowledgeable and pleasant and made our tour so interesting and personal. We’d like him to show us all of DC!
Marianni_F, Jul 2024
All I can say is, we love the tour. Eddie was very accommodating all around, he had a kid booster to drive around DC. When my 3-year old started to be unruly at the end of the tour he even had kid shows available.
He drove us around from the Capitol to the smithsonian museums and stop by the memorials. Eddie gave us the history of the city and his view of the locals. I highly recommend the tour to my family and friends
Cara_C, Jul 2024
We had the best time with Eddie & his daughter last week, during our evening Washington DC tour. He was so welcoming, knowledgeable, and showed us sites that we did not see on our previous tours. We highly recommend this night tour with Eddie. We were very impressed!
