Great tour for my family of 5! - What an incredible experience on the DC Highlights tour! We loved it! From the majestic White House to the inspiring Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial, each stop was captivating. The luxury bus made it comfortable, and our guide was fantastic—full of stories and insights that made the sites come alive. It was truly fun for all the family, and the photo stops were perfect for capturing memories. A huge thank you to Nick McCall and Lea for making this such a memorable day. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting D.C.!

Great way to see DC sights - We came to DC to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. We did the Discover DC 6 hour tour. Stops included the opportunity to see the outside of the Capital and the White House (from a distance). We also spent time at the WW II Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, FDR Memorial, Martin Luther King Memorial, Korean War Memorial, Lincoln Memorial and Vietnam Veterans Memorial. There was a short lunch break at a mall food court. A shoutout to our driver, Leah, and tour guide, Elvis, who made the trip safe, fun and informative. They made a special effort to take us past the sight where the new Desert Storm Memorial is being constructed because Kirt is a veteran of that war. Thank you, Leah and Elvis! We were picked up and dropped off at our resort in Oxon Hills. So convenient and worry free. We would highly recommend this tour company.
