The driver took us around... - The driver took us around to many of the famous sights. We stopped at about 7 places and got off for a few minutes to take pictures. He had to change up the route a little due to a parade blocking off parts of the city but we were still satisfied with what we got to see.

Good, quick your of the Capital and a ride around the monuments - It was a nice narrated tour on the trolley/cart around Washington starting in the eastern part of the city. Our your guide was knowledgeable and gave us a lot of tidbits around the city. However with a limited your time of 2 hours, the stops that we had felt rushed especially at the Washington Monument. We didn't even stop near Lafayette Square or the Ellipse to get a glimpse of the White house nor did the tour guide come inside with us to the monuments to explain the aspects of the memorial but with only one person that is too much to expect I gues. Fernando made a good effort to explain all the monuments to us and the founding of the capital and the building of the Capitol. It would have been better with 2:30 hrs your but he did the best with the limited time frame. Still a good way to get a good understanding of the city and its monuments and government buildings if you're in a hurry. It was especially nice to have someone to take photos of us for the different (small) groups on board. Pro:tip you can use the nearby Arrel's restaurant unofficially for the restroom stop before you start the tour
