What are people saying about Washington DC

Huey_J, May 2026

Historically Awesome

The day started out pretty bad but ending the night with a tour of DC at night was the best of it. Chris and James were awesome and provided accurate information on everything we had seen. I had no idea there was so much history in and around Washington! Thank you Chris and James for the opportunity and experience!

Washington DC in One Day: Guided Sightseeing Tour + boat cruise

Eunice_G, May 2026

Great Tour of DC!!!

Sam, our tour guide, and Cortez, our bus driver were outstanding! Sam was very knowledgeable about all the monuments. He gave interesting insights and background information which added so much to the tour. We were able to see many monuments, plus we enjoyed lunch and a great afternoon boat ride on the Potomac. It was a very complete tour of DC. We only had one day available, so this was perfect! We especially appreciated the kindness and attentiveness by Sam toward all the guests on the bus. I highly recommend this tour for someone who has not seen much of DC. It is excellent.

It was a very fun trip, and we enjoyed the lights at night! Our guide, Elvis and Sylvia the bus driver was amazing! We picked up some interesting facts along the way. FYI, the trip was nonrefundable, and we had an illness in our group last minute. A slim possibility of a partial refund.

Best Experience

This was such a cool experience. Especially for me who has never been to DC and was here for work. I got to see the places I wanted to see and learned some interesting facts that I did not know about. Chris and Tyler were fantastic. Chris navigated the DC traffic like a pro. Tyler was funny, knowledgeable, and just simply wonderful!

Mark, our driver and guide was very knowledgeable on the history of DC, the past leaders and their monuments, the White House, the US Capitol and the Library of congress.

Seeing the monuments at...

Seeing the monuments at night is a beautiful sight. Our guide was Dr. Cooke and he had a commanding knowledge of the history of DC and the individual monuments. He was also kind enough to take some great pictures of us and drop us off on the way back to the starting point since our hotel was on the way back from the last monument. My only wish would have been to have a bit more time at the Lincoln Memorial. Construction and traffic caused some delays.

Great Experience!

Great Experience! It was fun touring D.C. in a vintage car. We stopped at five locations and spent time sightseeing. Paul, our tour guide, was great! He was professional and related well with people, especially children. He is very knowledgeable about the area. He shares a lot of information and stories about people, buildings and locations. The tour is well worth the cost! Thank you for making our visit to Washington D.C. enjoyable!

Worth it.

I am aware these tickets usually are free if you know how to book them. I struggled to “snag” the and didn’t want to wait in the morning line. To me this was more than worth it. Communication was on point. Tickets got emailed to me. The wait was smooth and the experience was worth while. Highly recommend. Thanks for allowing me to sleep in and still have tickets.

Not To Be Missed!

We had Skye and she was phenomenal. So educated, articulate, and had extensive knowledge of everything on the tour (and more). It is a REALLY good way to get an informative snippet of three wonderful museums and to earmark where you want more time to visit. We will be going back to each of the museums (one at a time!)

M-Dot was an amazing guide! Throughout the tour he provided many facts about DC that I, an avid history buff, didnt even know! Plenty of opportnuity to see the major monuments up close in one night that wouldve taken multiple nights and too many steps to see on our own! Would recomend to anyone traveling to DC, especially on a short trip!
