Great Tour with Ryan! - Ryan was a wonderful guide. We did a private tour of the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum with him. He was incredibly pleasant, had an easy way with our kids, and gave a well informed tour with interesting facts. Our kids raved about him and he provided a great experience from start to finish! We even had the lights go out 3/4 of the way through our tour and Ryan was a total pro in navigating the situation and getting our family safely out of the building.

Air and Space tour. Tim is your man! - Professional and experienced tour was with Tim and he was a perfect guide. It’s challenging to move through the crowds and still keep the narrative going. Tim was a real pro. Down to earth and loves his job.

The Air & Space Evolution - The host was very knowledgeable and did a good job of keeping the group together and integrating the attendees that arrived late. Disappointing that several new exhibits weren't open to the public as of yet. Well worth the expense!

This tour is a scam. - This tour is a scam. Supposed to be timed entry tickets to the air and space museum but it turns out to be a walking tour only for almost $100 a person. Total scam and I can’t get my money back
