We had a great tour. Our tour guide Joe was one of the coolest people. My daughters loved him. He was very knowledgeable and very kind with my girls. They keep saying they want to see him again. Thanks for the tour! Great seeing the city, got to see all the main attractions and got some great photos.

A private tour is totally worth the price. Driver (Derick) gave us history we didn’t know and we enjoyed the architecture, infrastructure and tidbits.

DC tour w/tour Joe

Pavel_G, Nov 2026
We had a great tour. Our tour guide Joe was one of the coolest people. My daughters loved him. He was very knowledgeable and very kind with my girls. They keep saying they want to see him again. Thanks for the tour! Great seeing the city, got to see all the main attractions and got some great photos.

Enjoyable!

Min_K, Nov 2026
The best way to see DC is with a tour. You get to see the most in a short amount of time, giving you a big picture. Then you can deep dive after that. We enjoyed the tour and the tour guide was very knowledgeable! We learned a lot and saw a lot. It was fun to be in the vintage car, it’s like a golf cart.

Washington DC night tour

david_f, Oct 2026
Take in all the major city center sites with an excellent knowledgeable guide. Stopping frequently to experience the memorials at night, and take photos. Small group of 8 in our party.

Allegedly the cars are...

Pam_P, Oct 2026
Allegedly the cars are supposed to be able to accommodate three people per seat and there are three seats and one extra next to the driver however we had a group of seven and another group joined us who had 2 people and we had to put three people to a seat. There is not enough room for that, and that made for some great discomfort for members of our party. If we had known that in advance, we would have purchased the entire car. They should only advertise for two people per seat. The tour guide was good and kind. He was accommodating enough to drop part of our group at the metro station. That was greatly appreciated. The only other comment , we’d make was that at a couple of our stops, the tour guide got involved with other tourists who had questions about the tour and had extended conversations with them about what was involved and how to sign up. That took time away from our experience. We would recommend having some kind of brochures or something that could be handed out instead of taking time away from the tour to do marketing activities. Overall, it was a pleasant experience.

Jamie_D, Oct 2026
We went with my Elderly parents who don’t hear very well, thinking it would be better than the hop on hop off bus. My dad sat next to the driver and we were right behind so we could hear him but sadly, his Indian accent was so strong we could not understand him, Washington DC was all we got. So disappointing, Tour guides need to be Americans and speak proper clear English and better if they’ve lived there a while to add unscripted history.

Highly recommend!

Chrissy_J, Oct 2026
We loved our DC tour! Lawrence was a wealth of knowledge, pointing out details that we never would have known. Our 8 & 10 year old boys loved it as well- the vintage cars were so fun, and the tour held their attention.

The tour guide was...

Candice_R, Oct 2026
The tour guide was AMAZING! However with the cover on the car, you could not see anything. We squished 8 people into the car which was extremely uncomfortable. Not being able to see anything was upsetting. Obviously we stopped at places which was nice. AGAIN tour guide amazing.

Vintage Fun

Patricia_J, Oct 2026
It was a great experience. We were in a small group. The car only fits about 8 people; it was perfect. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. We loved this tour.

Bina_S, Aug 2026
This is first time using viator. Unfortunately our tour started 45 minutes late because of some road closures. Couple of sites didn’t get covered which is included in tour. They should have time it accordingly. Giving benefit of doubt first time.

Great experience!

Mae_B, Aug 2026
Paul was so fun and knowledgeable! The traffic was pretty bad but he knew just how to get where we needed to go quickly while giving great information and history.

Darlene_O, Aug 2026
Justin did a great job sharing all the facts on our tour. It was a super fun way to see the monuments! Especially if you are short on time.

Taylor_L, Aug 2026
A great way to see a lot of the monuments in a short amount of time. The stops were enough time to read a few plaques and take a picture before moving onto the next. Our guide Conner was great and very knowledgeable. The ride was comfortable and safe.

100% hands down the Best tour!

Amanda_S, Aug 2026
Veronica was awesome!! So much knowledge about our nation’s capital and the history. Great help with taking photos even have a couple fun ones. Would definitely recommend this tour the old cars gave it an extra touch.

Fun family time! Great, fast way to see the monuments

Thomas_H, Jul 2026
Guide was very knowledgeable and answered alot of questions we had. Got to see numerous monuments and all of the National Mall.

An okay tour

Bhakti_P, Jul 2026
The private car was comfortable and convenient for traveling between the different sites. However, once we arrived at each monument or historical location, we were simply given time to walk around and take photos on our own. There was very little historical context or storytelling provided during the drive. While a few buildings and landmarks were pointed out, they weren’t explained in any meaningful detail. Given the price of the tour, we expected a much more informative and engaging experience with greater insight into the history and significance of the places we visited.

Response from Host, Aug 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear that you found the private vehicle comfortable and convenient for visiting the different sites. We sincerely apologize that the tour did not provide the level of historical information and storytelling you were expecting. We understand that a private tour should offer more than simply transportation between landmarks, and our goal is to provide guests with meaningful historical context, interesting stories, and insight into the significance of the places they visit. Your comments regarding the limited explanations during the drive and at the monuments are very important to us. We will be reviewing this feedback with our tour team to ensure that our guides are providing a more engaging and informative experience. We appreciate you choosing us and are sorry that we did not meet your expectations. Your feedback helps us improve our service and maintain the high standard of experience we want every guest to receive.
