    Professor Zeleke was an excellent tour guide! He was very knowledgeable about many subjects including history, architecture, and overall DC knowledge. I would recommend his tour to anyone.

    It was extremely comfortable in the golf cart and our guide was extremely knowledgeable of Washington DC….. He dropped us off at the end of the tour in an area where we could get a Uber a lot easier…

    Thanks for your kind words Yohannes

    Educational and complete tour of all the sites

    Christina_H, Aug 2025
    Johannes gives the best tour in DC! Seeing all of the sites at night in the summer is a bucket list trip for me. He made sure that I saw everything and had time to walk around and get all the pictures I ever wanted. It was the best tour I've ever taken. I will recommend it to everyone! Take this instead of the double decker bus. It's so much better!

    So fun and informative!

    Kathryn_G, Apr 2025
    We all loved it!!! Great history lesson. Johanes was very knowledgeable. The opened aired golf cart was fun and such a superior way to see all the monuments/museums and buildings. It’s also such an incredible experience to see the monuments at night under the lights. Completely different than the daytime.

    Katherine_W, Mar 2025
    The evening golf cart tour was a definite highlight of our visit to DC! Yohannes is so knowledgeable and kind. We enjoyed learning from him and seeing the city at night - so beautiful! We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique and educational was to see the monuments!

    Response from Host, Mar 2025

    Very Kind Thanks

    Great tour with friendly driver

    Erin_M, Feb 2025
    I was in DC for work and had one free night to sightsee. When the weather report came out (very cold!) Johannes reached out and offered to reschedule. When I told him I wasn’t available, he graciously offered the tour, despite the poor weather and low bookings. Because it was just me, he even picked me up from my hotel. Johannes was kind, informative, and friendly. He had so much information about the history of DC and insight into the different museums, monuments and neighborhoods. We took quick stops at many of the monuments, although it was very cold so I opted to see the sites faster. On a regular night, you’d have plenty of time to see everything. The golf cart was comfortable and felt safe. A much more fun way to see the city! And a great overview if you’re limited on time. Great tour and would highly recommend!

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Thanks for your kind review, and looking forward, for your future tour in DC

    Special time

    Nicole_M, Dec 2024
    This was such a a good time and worth every dollar. I ended up having my own private tour, it was cold but there were blankets and a good time was had. My guide was so knowledgeable and we got out and walked to various sights so I could see the memorial. I can not wait to bring my family back and do this again.

    Response from Host, Dec 2024

    Thanks for your kind words. Looking forward to see you with your family

    Too cold in November

    Paula_h, Nov 2024
    The weather is too cold in November in Washington DC to take a tour on a golf cart at night. Even though it was 70° during the day and quite comfortable by the time the sunset while we were moving, it was windy and too cold.

    Response from Host, Nov 2024

    Thanks for the comment. I don’t have the control over the weather, It was the customer booking. We provide the best tour. however I asked the customer to use our blanket cover. Unfortunately it’s what it is.

    Excellent Night Tour of DC

    Ervin_S, Oct 2024
    The driver was Johannes Zeleke. He was very knowledgable about the tour sights and the history of the people, buildings, and Washington DC. He made the tour have life and exciting. It was our honor to have him as a driver and tour guide.

    Evening DC cart tour

    Paula_B, Oct 2024
    My family did an evening tour of the National Mall. It was the HIGHLIGHT of our DC trip! Our tour guide Yonas was so much more than we could have hoped for. He was well versed in the history and architecture of everything! He connected with my 14yo grandson in an engaging way that only a true educator could do. Well worth the time and money!

    Enjoyed My Tour

    Jennifer_R, Sep 2024
    I enjoyed the history about the buildings, presidents and the memorials. I read some people were left behind on a different person's tour when they did not make it back to the vehicle in time, but when I did not hear where the tour guide moved the cart shuttle, he called me and found me, afterwards, he allowed me to see what the others had already seen. He's a good tour guide and a nice person.

    Response from Host, Sep 2024

    Thanks very much and looking forward to next tour. Honor.

    Great time

    Naz_m, Sep 2024
    My husband and I had a fun time! It was the night time, so we could enjoy the night beauty of the memorials and monuments. Another benefit was that streets were quieter and gave me a sense of safety sitting in the doorless shuttles. :) Johannes, our driver was very knowledgeable and fun!

    Fun way to see DC

    Malika_R, Sep 2024
    Our tour guide Yohannes was fantastic. He took us to all the great spots, gave us plenty of time see and take pics of the monuments, and shared a great deal of history along the way. One of the best DC tours we booked!

    Response from Host, Sep 2024

    Thanks and honored, to get your review. Please comeback

    Breathtaking private evening tour, 10 out of 10!

    Chad_E, Sep 2024
    Three of us in our group work for an airline and spend our lives traveling. We have been on countless tours, everything from large bus tours to small guided, more intimate tours. It all comes down to your tour guide. And Mr Yohannes Zeleke was OUTSTANDING! He was incredibly knowledgeable, experienced, brilliantly educated, and funny. Most of us have seen the monuments in Washington DC numerous times, but never at night. It was gorgeous!! This was an experience we'll never forget, and will highly recommend to all of our friends and family visiting Washington DC.

    Response from Host, Sep 2024

    Thanks for choosing out tour looking forward to give you a complementary Georgetown tour. Honor to serve you.
