Political tour - We got to see a lot of things, but you dont have a whole lot of time and each stop. So you will want to either do a hop on hop off tour on another day or take an a uber to the places where you want to spend mord time. Our tour guide was very political about what is going on in today, rather than talking about the actual history. We finally had to ask him to please stop talking about politics and just tell us what every president does. And you dont get any water on this tour.

There was no specialized inauguration preview on the tour, and I'm sure we paid additionally for this. We never received our bottle of water.</p>

I realize it was the day before the inauguration and many streets were closed. However, I feel the tour company should have shared this with the people booked on the tour and let them determine if they wanted a refund. This was definitely a waste of 120 dollars.</p>
