The tour was awesome, really enjoyed having this at the beginning of our trip to Washington so we could know about all of the important landmarks in Washington. Our tour guide Nick was also a great storyteller and added a lot of fun humor to the tour.
Very pleased.

The interesting back stories on many of the sites. Often funny perspectives. The number of sites we were able to fit in.
It's a whirlwind of a tour.

If you only have one day to see many of the highlights of Washington DC, this is the tour to take. The guide really knew her stuff. She was organized. She interacted warmly wih her bus load of people and her personal ancecdotes only added to the facts of what we were seeing.
