Fantastic tour. - The whole experience was fantastic. Our guide Louie was so knowledgeable and was able to answer all our questions. We learnt so much about American history. The highlight was the changing of the guard at the Arlington cemetery. A deeply moving experience to witness.

Amazing experience! - I've gone on this tour twice now because it was such a great experience the first time (went with family) and this time was just as amazing! Had friends visiting from Germany and told them this would be the best way to see all the things in DC and they agreed. After going on the tour they say they had a great time and that it was definitely the best choice for the DC portion of their trip. I will definitely be recommending this tour to more friends.

3 generations on this trip and we all loved it. - What’s makes this special is that it is private and a bit customizable. We were able to allocate different times to each place and skip what we didn’t want to see etc. Jack is very knowledgeable and so attentive. He genuinely loves his career and his city. Pick up was on time and since we were not ready to head to our hotel he kindly dropped us off at the museum close by. Magic is in the details. Thanks Jack.

Wonderful tour - We had an awesome tour today with Jack from Journal Tours and Travel. He was very informative about the history and the current situation in Washington DC. He was very thorough and made sure that we saw every monument and landmark. He was able to answer every question we asked. The van was immaculate and comfortable, and we had cold bottled water after several stops (it was hot today!) He accommodated a request for a change in our pick up location which we really appreciated. He was personable and friendly. We are traveling with our 15 year old granddaughter and we really appreciated his efforts to interest her in everything that we saw. We would highly recommend Jack and Journal Tours and Travel for your touring needs when visiting Washington DC. The

Best way to see DC - Louie was a fantastic tour guide. He modified our tour to cater to our interests and answered all of our questions. We learned so much through his stories and deep knowledge of the city. The van was clean and comfortable. We would definitely recommend this experience to others. We can’t think of a better way to see the city, and hit its major monuments and landmarks.
