Donuts! - Love the knowledge that Sam had as much as we loved the donuts inspite of the really cold weather. We learnt a lot of peices of history for the DC even though we've been living here for awhile.

Awesome! - Awesome tour! More than donuts 🍩 Very informative , learned a lot. Great tour guide. Tour guide was patient and really cared about everyone in the group. Dc is always fun, but when you get an unexpected tour that has so much information and history , it makes it even better. It actually reminded me of when I was a child and we were on a field trip (that new fun feeling) Would certainly recommend.

Amazing overall time, will be back! - Our tour was absolutely amazing! Our guide (Sam), was terrific in delivering information regarding the city, the donuts and any other topics which came up. She is also an excellent photographer. My daughter and I had an amazing experience, will certainly do it again on one of our next trips.
