GREAT DC tour with Family - This was a perfect tour if you have just a few hours in DC. We hit up all the famous landmarks and we had enough time to walk around the sites we were most interested in seeing. Frank, our tour guide, was so knowledgeable, friendly and respectful- we enjoyed spending a few hours with him. We especially appreciated his communication with us before and during our tour. We took this tour with my parents, aunt and uncle so we appreciated the big and comfortable van that allowed easy on and off access for them.

Phenomenal Tour Guide = Phenomenal Tour - The guide we were assigned, Louie (not sure if that's spelled right) was phenomenal. He was very knowledgeable, personable, funny, and would answer questions. He didn't push any agenda and just cited facts without putting any bias into the content. We loved him so much that we requested him for our next day's tour to Mount Vernon. Our first night in DC was a horrible experience because of a very bad tour guide. Louie was the exact opposite. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Louie to ANYONE!

The best option to visit Washington DC - I had the best experience with Journal Tour Travel. They are very friendly, the way they tell the story of the city and events is super interesting, all very clear and super interesting. I highly recommend it, I do not like tours with so many people, and certainly this is the most personalized thing there is to know Washington DC. We also recommended restaurants and what to do the rest of days!
