Great tour! Highly recommend this for anyone that wants to learn more about the black history of Washington DC.
Dorsey_W, Sep 2024
We were able to see a lot of iconic locations, and our tour guide, Christopher, really knew his stuff. He was personable, considerate, easy to get along with, and had detailed answers for any questions we had on the tour.

Christopher Williams, was the best tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and very courteous. My teenagers learned a lot and they really enjoyed the tour and so did we. I would definitely recommend him to anyone and I would definitely book again. Thanks again Chris!!

Christopher was absolutely amazing! He made the tour interesting and fun. I definitely look forward to using his services again on my next visit . He is well worth the money !

We had a fabulous time on our tour. Christopher has a great personality, is extremely knowledgeable about the history of Washington, the African American history as well as the history of the United States. His car was spotless, and he is an excellent driver. We enjoyed spending the day with him and I would recommend taking his tour.

Wonderful experience with Chris, a D.C. native with a deep knowledge of area history and a keen sense for complex historical anecdote. Also his jokes are good. Skipping the line at the African-American History museum is priceless and the additional sites that Chris includes on the tour are meaningful and probably impossible to visit in so little time without a chauffeured vehicle. You won’t look at some of the monuments the same way after visiting the museum. We are thinking of taking the tour again when our child is older.
Response from Host, Feb 2022
Much appreciated Ms. Emily! It was fun having you guys out. Just bring Holden back when he’s bigger and we’ll do it again!
