Beautiful and Informational - We were bused around to many of the great monuments while our guide, Sally, kept up a constant stream of information. My husband wasn't able to join us until we were at our first stop (they did their utmost best to get him on our tour) and parked near there. Godfrey, the driver, kindly took our family over to our parking spot afterward. Above and beyond! My whole family enjoyed the tour, and that's saying something! I was grateful to be able to see the various sights without having to walk it all, and the night views of many of the monuments were gorgeous. I also loved that this tour was offered during the evening when the museums were closed to maximize our time.

Washington DC in one day - Sally was very knowledgeable and personable. The driver Chris, did a great job maneuvering the busy DC streets. All in all a wonderful experience.

The DC Day Tour for a family - Tyrone was an amazing tour guide. This tour allows you to get on and off and discover the sites of DC at your leisure the boat ride at the end was the cap off for such a long day. My 8 year old who is a history buff loved every moment of it

We learned so much on this fabulous tour. - We had only been to Washington DC once and had never taken a tour. Our guide Sally was so knowledgeable and could answer and questions thrown at her. She was also a lot of fun to be around. Take this tour! Also Kris got us to each of the monuments with ease. Hats off to the duo that we were lucky enough to be with.

Get with Sally and Chris - Sally and Chris, our tour guide and driver, were great! Wonderful commentary and safe transportation.

very good tour - the guide was perfect. do not remember the name but he had a hat (a fairly big guy) - very knowledgeable, very friendly and funny. it is a long tour - more than 6 hours but covers every thing required for overall sight seeing. do not miss the boat ride - interesting.

Super tour - Tyrone was a knowledgeable and fun tour guide, and the driver (Chris, I think), did a good job. Just the right amount of stops, and we enjoyed the boat ride too. Everything was timed well. I highly recommend this tour.

Would recommend - Very good tour. Would recommend. Organized and ran like clockwork. Great venue of memorials. Short, but adequate stops. If you want leisurely time to meander through each memorial, don’t take tour. It was good for us as we wanted a preview of the area. Take a snack, lunch was early afternoon. Lunch at Georgetown Harbor nice stop for lunch with many restaurants. Our guide was very knowledgeable and stayed with us.

The bus tour was great, but the river cruise was disappointing. - Although it was a very hot September day, we enjoyed the tour as best we could. Our driver and guide. Chris and Tyrone, were courteous, knowledgeable, and helpful. It was a very educational and fun experience. Giving us time and options for lunch (including Tony and Nick's right on the water) were very nice. The disappointment to me was the river cruise. The vessel was old, dirty, and cramped. There were a lot of people on-board and it was a hot afternoon. I was looking forward to the water part of the tour the most, but, unfortunately, it was a disappointment.

Do not recommend - I had a problem with the tour and have contacted both the operator and Viator with no help. I have yet to be able to explain the issues to either of them. I DO NOT recommend this tour company at this point. They will not pick you up at your hotel (even if it is on the preferred list) so that is a ridiculous offer, they were not on time (30 minutes of sitting on the bus with no explanation) so we moved very quickly through the sites (you do not get 15 minutes as listed) and we did not get any introduction or instructions as to how the tours and sites will go. If you get our guide and stay on the bus when your family is seeing the site, you will get to hear her tell the semi full bus about how dumb people are, how they dont listen or follow her vague instructions, how she will leave and they will have to find their way to the next stop and how they obviously dont know how to follow directions. She will also be sure and repeat those comments with her microphone on and embarrass your children when they were 1-1/2 minutes late of her "glorious" 11 minute timeline. Don’t do it – this is not luxury it is a bus and I could not sit facing forward with my knees closed. I am 5’8” .
