Best way to see Washington D.C. with your own private tour guide

Sylvia_I, Dec 2022

This was an amazing experience - we got to see the monuments and memorials, and get bit-sized and interesting history lessons from Barry on this private bike tour. Barry was prompt in picking us up from the hotel and it was great to have a place to store our water bottles and bags when we wanted to come down and spend more time at a particular monument or memorial. Barry was also happy to take our photos whenever we wanted. It was a bit cold and rainy back in October 2022 when we visited D.C., so Barry had a rain cover that he put across when it started to rain more. The best part of taking this tour with Barry was that he had access to the top of a building near the White House and we were able to go onto the rooftop and get an amazing view. My father and son said this was the highlight of the trip and this was the only way to see Washington D.C. Absolutely worth the money.

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Thank you for your kind review! I am so glad you enjoyed your tour and found it to be a highlight of your trip. It was definitely my pleasure to take you around! I am glad that everyone stayed comfortable even in the cold and rain and I very much appreciate your saying that the tour was worth the money. Writing this will certainly help other families decide if this kind of private and customized tour is right for them. I hope that you come back one day for another experience with me!

Everyone will be jealous that you have a ride.

Amazing tour on a beautiful day with all the cherry blossoms fully blooming! We felt so lucky and our tour guide was amazing! We lucked out with an American history teacher! We literally had time to see every monument and grab a quick bite to eat for lunch. What a beautiful day and a terrific education for my teenager.

Response from Host, Mar 2022

Hi Aaron! I am so glad Don got to show you around. He's one of the top five guides in all of Washington, and we're so thrilled you enjoyed his narration. As you learned, Don isn't some stodgy history teacher, he's pretty much the best-of-the-best in terms of being an entertaining tour guide, but at the same time knowing all the ins and outs of the details behind the luminaries represented in stone on the National Mall. Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review. It means a lot to a small business like ours!
