Monument and Memorials - Our tour was tailored to meet our time frame. Terry our tour guide was very knowledgeable. Our driver did a great job of getting us close to the memorials on the tour and keeping us safe in crazy DC traffic! The tour provided water. The air conditioning could have been better on the bus.

Great Tour and Excellent Guide and Driver - The heat was unbearable reaching over 110 and yet both the driver and guide made this the highlight of our DC trip. Evan was our tour guide and provided so much historical information. We had been to DC monuments on our own previously but this was so worth the fees. Evan the guide provided substance and meaning to each of the sights as well as humor. Maggie was our driver and she handled the tour bus with ease. We were there during the NATO Summit and a lot of streets were blocked off and the amount of people and traffic were significant. Maggie also made sure that all the passengers stayed hydrated and offered paper towels- which were needed!! She dropped us off as close to each monument and picked us up even closer if possible due to the heat. We would highly recommend this tour even if you've been to DC multiple times.

Great company and great guys, provided all support, explanations, and also some fun + facts during the trip to each monument / waypoint. Also kudos to the easiness with I was able to reschedule my tour - as long as it respects the 24 hours threshold it will r plain and simple. Definitely recommend.

Worth every penny - We did a private tour of DC monuments and highlights. The tour lasted 7 hours, but it flew by. Our guide, Nick, was fabulous. He was knowledgeable, funny, and personable. We could’ve spent some more hours and you out with him. Evan was a great driver, always there when we left an area to get us to the next location. We saw more in this winter than most people see on their entire trip in Washington DC. Even my teenagers were never bored on this trip. Being a private tour, we are able to spend as much or as little time as we wanted at each location. We were even able to add a trip to the National Archives to see the Constitution and Bill or Rights and Declaration of Independence at the end since we had a little time left. This tour was worth every penny. Thank you, Nick and Evan, you made our trip awesome.

Hurtful, Disappointing, Stressful & Anxiety Inducing - Stop on tour not included—not told before the bus left. Paid $160.20—only $8.01 credit. Tour Guide was arrogant & rude.

Disappointing, Stressful & Anxiety Inducing etc. - USA Guided Tour Company— **The brochure had 9:15am pick time; but they told the driver an earlier time which caused us anxiety because we thought they may leave us;✅ **It was mentioned to Matt—over the phone before we booked the tour about health challenges & Matt said that they would be able to accommodate; but bus driver seemed confused about this protocol when it was brought to they’re attention;✅ **They didn’t offer any discount off the tickets; until I called the company & asked for the tickets to be discounted because one of the sites in the brochure was not to visited as advertised—I was told by the driver that the company can’t control was happens at the sites; but the company was made aware of this the night before the tour; but we were not informed of this until we were already on the bus starting out for the tour;✅ **The tour guide was very arrogant & dismissive of us as the resort guests—he actual had a hat that said “Tour God” on it—(there’s only one God—Jesus Christ the Lord—period…)!!!! The tour guide had an inflated view of himself masking his arrogance with corny jokes—thought of himself more than what he was; and I felt very uncomfortable when he(tour guide) got in my personal space & hovered over me on the bus to challenge me because I had a question about some misinformation that he had given in an announcement to all of us on the tour. We will never used this company again; we don’t care if they are black owned; we are paying money to be mistreated by our own people; we only received $8.01 credit back for tickets that totaled $160.20 dollars!!! —NO WAY JOSE!!!;✅

False advertising - I signed up for the Washington monument tour with entry tickets. When I arrived in the morning as the tour was starting, the operator notified me that the tour I signed up for did not include tickets for the Washington monument. I asked for a full refund. They only gave me a partial. This is not how you treat people or run a business.
