Funny Experience - Great experience!!! Guide and driver had a great relationship. Guide was supper knowledgeable, funny and knew how to engage the group I think his name was Derek and the driver was Lenny. I feel like I learned a lot and had a blast.

Crime Lovers and Conspiracy Theorists - We had a great time! Lenny and Derek were so much fun, and incredibly informed. I am at least 30 years their senior and they knew everything I knew and more! Definitely make this one of your must-dos if you visit DC!

History and Scandals - So Good! - Gosh, I loved this tour. The stories, seeing places at night, visiting where scandals happened, and experiencing the Kennedy Center like it was rented out just for us! Derek is fabulous. I’d go on another tour with him in a heartbeat. Lenny the bus driver is the sweetest guy. The two of them as a team make a memorable evening. So glad I fit this tour into my trip. I even took notes because I’m that nerd!

DC political scandal tour is a must! - The information given during the tour was interesting and covered both DC government officials and local DC officials which was fun. Derrick was so fun and personable. Lenny is the best driver, kept it fun and light too.

DC scandals - It was a bit boring and long! Lasted 3.5 hours! There is more walking than I thought. Guide & driver were nice but guide rambled on a bit.

Worst tour ever - It was way too long and not very interesting. The tour guide was terrible. He talked way too much and dragged the stories on way too long. The tours was supposed to be 3 hours it was 3 1/2 hours. This tour could have been done in 1 hour. As for the tour guide he used words that were inappropriate in mixed company. Also he had to point out a RAT in a garage can. This was the worst tour we have never been on. We should be getting a refund. Your tour company represents our country to visiting people all over the world. Very sad representation of our country.
