Nick and Gary make a great team - We had Nick as our tour guide and Gary as our bus driver. Both gentlemen were great. Nick knew everything about this city. Well worth every dollar.

We were able to see lots... - We were able to see lots of sites in one day. Open your bus was great as weather was perfect. Our tour guide Nick was great and shared many facts as we visited each site. He also assisted us in locating a name on the Vietnam War Memorial. We always enjoy Viator tours and this was another great one to add to the list.

Only way to see DC. - I did this tour solo in 2024 and learned so much that it was the first thing I scheduled for the 2025 trip with my 13 year old daughter. We had Nick as our guide, and it couldn’t have been better. He was entertaining, knowledgeable, and engaging. Leah was our driver and she navigated our bus expertly and was so kind and cheerful. High praise from the teen : “I literally love her.”

Excellent tour - Excellent tour to cover everything in a day. We did the DC night tour the prior evening and while this tour saw all of that and a bunch more, the repeats were always different and new perspectives not to mention daytime verses night. I highly recommend both tours.

Loved this tour - This was amazing!! I highly recommend this tour!! I loved the amount of time we spent at each memorial, the tour guide Nick, and the bus we rode in. Super friendly staff. My only complaint is that we didn’t get any time for gift shops, but I’m addicted to retail therapy… 🤣

Best tour - We learned so much about DC. Our “Tourgod” Nick had us learning in the best possible way. He was so knowledgeable and so caring to an elderly man on our tour.

Insightful and entertaining must do tour in DC! - If you like history and politics then this is definitely the tour to do. My groups guide was Nick and he was brilliant at managing the day, giving us the right information, and the occasional bad jokes! Seriously though, I have done many tours and what set this apart was Nick. Our driver was fantastic too, navigating us through the busy DC traffic like the pro she is. Overall, good value for money. Highly recommend.
