Efficient way of seeing all the key sites - An efficient way to see all the memorials and the US Capitol and National Archives in one day. Sam helped keep us on track and directed us through each site, except the US Capitol where you have the Capitol tour guide and the National Archives where you can go to see the Declaration of Independence on your own. We didnt get very close to the White House but probably was a good place to stop across a field. Loved being able to visit all the key memorials and sites in one day! Thanks

INCREDIBLE tour!! Best guide! - I was able to experience this tour with my dad, and I am so grateful NICK was our tour guide! He was charming, hilarious, and incredibly knowledgeable about the city! I thought I knew everything about the monuments, but he had me cackling along with all the fun trivia! Definitely worth it, I felt the timing of each of the monuments was exactly perfect as well. Even though we were shivering from the 30 degree weather, the luxury bus was perfectly heated and kept us warm. Lunch was delicious and every stop along the way was perfect. LOVED IT!

He interacted with his group by asking questions to see who knew what about various places and he would answer questions about the historical sites with wit and humor. The tour was very interesting and worthwhile. I would recommend it to those visiting DC.

Monumental day - Nick and driver Calvin were awesome! Nick was very knowledgeable and a fantastic storyteller. Great dad jokes. Calvin was gracious and helpful. We’d recommend them to other travelers looking for a little history.

Disappointed by last minute cancellation! - They cancelled our tour just a 5 days ahead of our scheduled excursion. The reason was the Inauguration. This left us scrambling at the last minute to find another tour. It caused us to miss a tour of the Capitol and we weren’t able to reschedule. I felt like they should have given us more notice or come up with a work around. If you know it the Presidential Inauguration and you are not able to do the your then do t schedule it in the first place. Very unprofessional!
