One heck of an experience!!!!! - Dwight and Dave were absolutely terrific. Between their driving skills and historic knowledge made the night tour a huge success and definitely memorable! I truly believe it was worth every penny spent so I’m appreciative from what I learned to what I saw. It was once of a lifetime experience!

Good scenery, excellent experience, but perhaps one stop too long. - We had expected this to be a mellow ride around illuminated monuments ... NOT AT ALL! We got off the bus a half-dozen or more times, and were given 15 to 20 minutes at each stop to explore or take pictures. Our guide kept up a running narrative which we were able to listen to via radio earpieces, and was knowledgeable and available for questions at all times. The glowing wristbands were very useful for locating our group when we strayed away. The free bottles of water and snacks (individual bags of crisps, etc) were appreciated. My only complaint is that the tour ran about an hour longer than advertized, and we were exhausted once it was over. Also, some other visitors had only paid for parking through 11:00 PM and we returned later than that. It's worth paying the extra $5 for hotel pickup/dropoff, particularly since this tour runs so late.

Worth every penny - Dwight and Dave (the double D’s) were fabulous! I love the earphone boxes and the wristbands - they really helped! I have been on many tours where I can not hear the guide, or am so concentrated on “staying with the group” that I miss pieces of the tour. Thank you!!!

Comfort, casual, friendly, good value! - Well worth it. Top rated sites. Comfortable tour bus. Knowledgeable guide and great bus driver. Keep in mind you don't see all the details of architecture and engraved words because of lack of daylight. We got stunning photos at each stop with just the right amount of time at each location. Full 4 hrs tour + 45 min x 2 for hotel pickup & dropoff. Made for a very late night...only negative, but really appreciated the transport. Appreciated the water and snack, the LED bracelet to see who is in our group as we moved to/from each site and the bus. We and our 12 yr old grandson would highly recommend this tour.
