Wait timings were good to...
Debanjana_D, June 2022
Wait timings were good to explore and come back. But not all stops were covered. Management was really bad, they overbooked the buses and it was difficult to get seats if you didn’t come early. Seats were not guaranteed.

Horrible experienxe
Corey_B, May 2022
This tour was the worst I’ve ever been on. The guide was smart however it was hard to understand him. We didn’t see much of what we were supposed to see due to being stuck in traffic. My question is: if the guide is seasoned and have been doing this for years…how do you not anticipate that there will be traffic? Why not adjust the entire tour due to the possibility of heavy traffic. The tour was cut short and I felt cheated out of my money. I will never tour nor recommend it again

Thanks for your business and review.
Memorial Day happened hence the road closures.
Not for kids
Elizabeth_W, Apr 2022
Would not recommend for kids- while the tour goes to a number of popular WC DC monuments, our guide rattled off information as fast as he possibly could, as though he could not wait to be done. We understand very little of what he said. The sound system was also extremely loud, hurting my son’s ears. We got off and bailed halfway through.
Response from Host, Apr 2022
Thanks and sorry for your inconvenience
Not enough stops or time at them.
Kara_H, Mar 2022
I would have liked to make a few more stops and had more time at them. The first thing listed on the included was a water bottle we never received and couldn't have drank on the bus. I brought my kids first time in DC. We came because of the cherry blossom festival. I'm glad we were on the bus through crowds and traffic.

Very Good Tour of Washington DC’s Monuments
Teneshya_M, Nov 2021
Dr. Ali Zohery did an amazing job of narrating the tour. He also gave us ample time to see the MLK monument, the north side of the White House, and the Lincoln Memorial. He did a great job of controlling and managing the group.

Kristina_O, Apr 2021
Excellent trip and totally worth the money! The best way to explore DC, especially for your first time visiting. This trip was the perfect amount of time to see so many of the amazing buildings, monuments, and memorials. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and let us know what to look for and it's historical or current important. The bus was clean, comfortable and had WiFi and a bathroom. My husband, my 10 year old son and I had a wonderful day!
