Vip Best Of Dc With Us Capitol + National Archives Reserved Entry

We never spent a lot of time in one place but we saw a whole lot of wonderful places. A perfect way to see the highlights It was great to go in the daylight then later on another tour go back after dark.

We had a full day touring DC, saw so many things we could never have seen on our own! Nick, our tour guide, did an exceptional job giving us such great info with a dose of humor!

Our capital tour with our guide Elvis was great. His knowledge of the capital made the tour fun and enlightening. The bus tour of monuments and memorials was well worth the money and Evan made the trip fun, we saw a lot in the time we had.

Great tour! USA Guided Tours, 6 hour DC tour. Nick, tour guide! Absolutely the BEST!!!! He talked non-stop and gave so much information and history. He made it relevant and even funny. He kept us engaged. And Kareem was our driver and he made it look easy. Don't hesitate to book this tour. You get to see much of DC without having to drive yourself.

Accommodating with easy access to sites. Since it was the first week of June, there were scores of middle and high schoolers on their end-of-year trip. Our school district in Texas ended classes May 27th.

Loved the all day tour. Saw all the key locations with the exception of The White House (closed due to security / riot fencing that was up). Tour guides (Sam and Nick) - Nick, especially, exceptional. Informative. Fun. Engaging. Calvin, bus driver, also great guy. Definitely the way to "start" your stay in DC. You see everything and then, if something really intrigues you, you know what to revisit. Do wish there had been more explanation of the USAA National Military Monument (at base of Lincoln Memorial / between that and the Washington Monument) as we discovered the names on the stripes of those 2 erected stone flags the night before we left on another tour and were able to search our fathers' names on it. Would have done it earlier had we known. But the all day tour and time spent on the Potomac was great. We went in late September - great weather!

Excellent tour and tour guide. My son and I loved the experience. I wish we made this tour the very first outing during our DC trip.

Great tour! Would definitely do again! Nick and Cheryl were amazing!!! Highly recommend!

I did this tour 5 years ago. Nick was our guide, and 5 years later, i still remember him, and his jokes and his personality. Best tour guide ever. I had a tour of white house, met former President's and visited DC numerous times. Nick still is the best.

Enjoyed the VIP tour yesterday with our tour guide Brittany and driver, Ms. Barnes. They made our experience excellent. I would highly recommend this tour if you are trying to see all of the main attractions in one day. We were dropped off at each site and had about 15-20 minutes to explore at each stop. The bus was very comfortable, had air conditioner, and they provided us with water. I would highly recommend this tour. I am very happy with my experience.

We wanted to see a lot of sights and receive good information about each one. And we did with our great tour guide Sam and driver Lea!

Nick was incredible. Kind. VERY knowledgeable, funny. We had the best time, walking til we literally dropped Wear good shoes. This absolutely matters. Drink what you need. Restrooms are available everywhere.

We had a great time. Sam was fantastic. He knew so much and answered every question. The whole tour was very worthwhile and enjoyable.

The tour timing is paced well if everyone is able. The number of stops was a good amount as not to make it too much. Water was provided, which was very helpful with heat index more than 90 degrees. The tour was negatively affected by street closures due to the Washington DC Grand Prix. This led to some confusion and a rushed lunch time. Tour guide Sam was excellent. He was able to keep the full group together and moving (5 stars for Sam).

Professional knowledgeable kept great pace friendly. Sam and Richard were amazing. Would recommend 10/10

We only had one day and wanted to see as much as possible. This tour took us too many of the highlights. Nick was our guide and did a great job. He was personable, kept the tour moving and was very knowledgeable.

The tour guide and driver were great. However would recommend giving more than 40 minutes for lunch or options with faster options (fast food).

Very educational. Our guide was fantastic. A great way to see a lot of DC on one day. Highly recommend

This tour was the highlight of our trip. Nick our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable about all the places we visited and kidded with the group the whole day. I was blown away with everything we saw in just one day. And truly loved being told the meaningfulness behind the design of the monuments before we got to them and then having the freedom to just take it in as we were onsite. Early access to the Capital Building was nice. Enjoyed lunch on the wharf at really good restaurant. Our bus driver was absolutely delightful. They kept cold water stocked at all times and reminded us to take use of it to avoid dehydration. We were exhausted by the end of the day so don’t recommend planning anything that evening. Only thing I would change about the trip is taking out the boat cruise and adding Washington Monument instead. Thanks to the team for a great time!

Joey and Evan were fantastic tour guides. Thanks, Evan, for putting us on the open-air bus, and Joey for explaining the monuments. For the bus, it would be nice to give her a microphone so we can hear better from the back.

It's hard to score this tour. I thought the tour guide, Sam, was great - 5 stars. The bus we were put on, was 0 stars! The tour stated A/C Bus, was the main reason I booked this event. We visited DC during the 250th celebration & also during a very hot 103-degree weather! The bus did not have A/C or even a fan. ==> Pink Bus #52! The bus was like an actual oven. It made this tour miserable, and I was counting how much more of this can I take (waiting for the tour to end)! We should have been notified to given options about this bus problem or even given some sort of refund. For the tour itself --- The White House shouldn't even be a stop. Waste of a stop. You can't see anything due to the very large fence. The tour can put it use to another stop or add time for something else. A few days prior to the tour, it was stated that we were not to "River Tour' segment, instead my voicemail stated, we are replacing it with a stop at the Pentagon. This was in reality wrong; it was a stop at Pentagon City at a shopping mall for lunch. Communication needs to be better.

We had a large group ranging in ages from 6 years to 75 years. This was the way to experience the sites. Just enough time at each stop, kids behaved themselves b/c someone else telling them what to do, not mom and dad, telling them where to be and what to do.

Great day seeing many of the main historical attractions and tributes. Well worth the price paid. Our guide, Sam, was outstanding in every way. Knowledgeable, caring to all guests, and kept us on time, without feeling rushed. Excellent job Sam!!

We had an amazing time and was able to see many of the main attractions in DC. Derrick the guide was awesome and extremely knowledgeable about our countries history.

Sam was an absolutely amazing tour guide!!! He 100% made the trip. He shared so many facts and answered everyone’s questions. I only recall one he didn’t know so he looked it up and shared with the group at our next chat. He was attentive to the needs of everyone, set clear expectations, and shared ways to stay cool during a record heat wave. He’s clearly a huge asset to the company!!! Highly recommend but hopefully you too get a fantastic guide like my family. Big thanks to Sam!!!

Sam was a great travel guide! It’s a LOT of walking, so you’ll want to wear comfy shoes. It’s a good overview of the city sites. The visits to most places are brief, but provide a good taste of everything we wanted to see. I would’ve liked to stay a little longer at a few places, but overall a good experience.

Our driver and guide were magnificent, calm, and concerned about our health in the heat. However, the vehicle we were in at little to no air-conditioning and in 109° weather that doesn’t opt for good customer service. We quit the early cause we could no longer stand the heat.

USA Guided Tours was great. Nick did an awesome job of narrating and sharing information. Information for meeting place from Viator was poor.

It was a great time, host where very informative and good people. They didn't waste time keep track of everyone which is very difficult with all the people around. Thank you to all

The tour guides are very knowledgeable. The tour I selected was a “private” tour which costs a bit more money. It was “private” for the first stop (The Capital) but then we met up with a much larger group (approx 40 people) - which then meant it was not private for the rest of the day. That was extremely disappointing.

Our tour guide was Sam. He was at the Neptune Fountain way before we were required to be there. He was well versed in all of the expectations and requirements of the different places we were going to (ex. capitol). He was friendly, answered questions, made our tour day delightful, as well as giving us other suggestions to do in DC if we had time. He also took time to take our pictures if we wanted them and would even help other people who were not on our tour locate elevators, answer a question, etc. We took this tour with our kids and both employees interacted well with our kids too. Sam even saw us walking around the day after we had our tour with him and he waved to us and said "I know you!" We also appreciated our driver (Mr. Carter/Parker). He made sure that we were safe and got to our different destinations. We took the "open top" vehicle/bus and greatly enjoyed it. I would definitely take this tour again and/or use this company again.

I paid extra to book this tour that was only supposed to have 12 people. There were 42 people on the bus. They said they combined 3 tours into one. I was disappointed that we had to wait on 42 people instead of 12 as advertised! Sam did a good job but I would have gone with a different company if I had known there were going to combine groups.

Sam our tour guide was super friendly and knowledgeable. Mr. Parker was a fantastic driver and got us around the city very smoothly. We were able to see the main monuments all in one day without having to navigate the city ourselves. Such a great experience!

Great comprehensive tour. Nick, our guide, was excellent. We covered all the monuments plus the Capitol.

We had a fabulous time! The fee was reasonable and the tour lasted all day. It was well worth it though. You got to see a ton of stuff. I recommend doing the VIP tour because you get to go in the state capitol and the national archives building. It wasn’t really crowded, but it did rain on and off all day. We had Joey and Jackie for our tour. Joey was an amazing and funny guide. Sue was very knowledgeable and made the day exciting.

Sam and Leah were great. So helpful and very informative. The weather was poor, but the experience was great. They even had water and poncho’s for us, fantastic team. Would thoroughly recommend this tour.

Extensive coverage of some of the most popular attractions. Great to get inside the Capitol building and the National archives. Sam and Leah were great and their knowledge and stories made the day.

This was a wonderful experience! Our tour guide, Sam, was not only extremely knowledgeable, but also very friendly! His great attitude and sense of humor really turned the event into a memorable moment.

Britany was friendly and very knowledgeable about all the sites we visited. Best way to see many sites in one day. Would recommend the tour to anyone seeing DC. We did the 8 hr tour with the boat ride. Had only 45 minutes for lunch after the boat ride so pre ordering at one of the local restaurants 15 minutes prior will allow you more time.

The tour guide was actually great but I cannot in good faith give this tour more than one star. I paid EXTRA for a panoramic glass top van with AIR CONDITIONING, and instead it was an open top van, not a cloud in the sky AND it was 97 degrees. I almost fainted, and was extremely miserable all day. My son also got sunburned. I feel completely ripped off.

Best VIP tour stands true to their title. Our guide Britney and driver Stephanie were and awesome team. We got stuck in traffic in our uber and Brittney called me and waited we so appreciated it ad it was a VIP tour of the capitol. Timing and coordination was effortlessly perfect and Both of them kept us all 20 people together

It was a long tour but Evan, our guide, kept it fun. We learned a lot about all the monuments and enjoyed it.

This the best tour we've ever taken, covered so much of DC. Sam was an excellent guide! He was just a fountain of knowledge and so friendly. We enjoyed this for very much.

Great experience! Tour guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about sharing the details of the city, monuments, etc. bus was nice and clean. Bus driver was friendly.

This is a great tour and our tour guide was very knowledgeable and really friendly. Perfect small size tour.

Sam was our tour guide. Professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. He managed the time spent at each area very well. Lots of walking, several stairs, but easy to navigate for most.

Had a great time on your. Nick was fantastic. He is extremely knowledgeable and has a great personality. Only criticism is the bus was very dirty on the outside and had seats that were broken.

Nick was great! Super knowledgeable and fun

Guide was 1/2 hr late, and cut several points of interest short to make up lost time. Had to call to find out where the guide was as he didn't notify us of his lateness. He was good and knowledgeable, but didn't appreciate cutting time short as various stops to make up his tardiness.
