This small tour of the... - This small tour of the National Mall was a great look at all the important sites, ending in a trip up the Washington Monument (a difficult ticket to gain on one's own). The guide gave a lengthy and thorough history of each site (however, the guide's political biases made the conversation uncomfortable at times). This tour involves a hefty walk, so be prepared with comfortable walking shoes.

Wonderful experience - Raffey did an amazing job! He was very knowledgeable, patient, respectful. and made it easy to talk to him about anything. He even made conversation so the walk didn’t seem nearly as lengthy as it actually was!

Awesome tour and guide. - This was an awesome tour. Amanda is a fantastic leader with many key insights and stories. We went with our 11 year-old grandson who asked plenty of questions. Amanda was great with him and the rest of the tour. Happy to do this again when my other grandson is older!

Excellent tour! - Allegra was a fantastic guide. She knew all of the factual information that we wanted to hear, but also added some very interesting facts about various controversies and discussions surrounding the memorials. The pace she used was just right for our group. She was a fantastic tour guide.

Great way to walk around the mall - We had Jiana as our guide. She was wonderful. She told us things kids can look for at each site. The pace was fast pace to accommodate everyone in the group but it got my kids up and running. She’s got wonderful stories behind the memorials and monuments. We loved it.

Alex made this tour AMAZING! - Our tour guide, Alex D. was FABULOUS! He was SO knowledgeable about history; we were really impressed. The weather was hot and Alex was very good about making sure we were all hydrated and comfortable. We enjoyed every aspect of the walking tour, but when we got to the Washington Monument it was closed due to weather (heat), so I feel some sort of reimbursement should have been offered.
