Irreverent history served up with a few beers - Jo was a great tour guide! We were lucky to be the only couple on the tour, so we enjoyed getting to know her while we learned some of the lesser-known history of DC.

Enjoyable, informative, and relaxing - We visited 4 bars which are all a fairly short walk between them. At each one we got a short interesting history lesson. Our guide was knowledgeable and pleasant. We opted to buy our own drinks as the timing might be difficult for 4 drinks for most people.

Great experience! You get beer and a history lesson! - We had a great time! We didn’t let the rain, wind and tornado watch deter us! Being from Arkansas, we were like meh, just another normal day for us…Dalton was just the best, he was funny, informative and really stayed connected with everyone! We enjoyed getting to know our fellow crawlers! 5 stars, would recommend and definitely would do it again!
