This was a very nice tour to see all of the monuments. Its 2 hour in length. Saul our tour guide was phenomenal. Very engaging and informative. I would recommend doing this tour early as possible. Nightime the visuals can be a little dark but great overall.
I can only attest to one of your tour guides. Kevin was our guide and was so awesome! He took time to answer questions and gave us so much information and made the trip fun!
Guide Sal was amazing had facts I had not heard from other guides, he was very nice to accommodate our special needs, showed us great picture sites and packed a 3 hour tour into 1 hour. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fact filled ride through DC.
My bf and i went on a tour in DC with Sal. He was very knowledgeable and offered to take family photos for anyone on our tour. Would recommend 100%
Good overview of DC, were able to walk to Jefferson Memorial, Washington Monument, Capitol & Lincoln Memorial. The No Kings Cross slowed down the tour and we couldn't see White House because of street closures...overal all good tour. Driver was not that great on history...a little hard to understand also, but very polite and offered to take pics for you.
Great cruise around the major D.C. monuments! Knowledgeable and humorous guide. I would recommend it..
Having a hat with a good visor would be helpful to keep the sunshine/ rain off your glasses. Good shoes a must.
Grant was great! This was a fun way to see the city in a different way than I have in the past. I would definitely recommend.
Able to get off and go to the monuments and was a fast way to see the sights without worrying about traffic Kevin was very fun and knowledgeable.
Perfect 👍 Everything was perfect Everyone enjoyed themselves. The host was Kind and thoughtful . And very informative...
We had such a great experience! The open electric car was a fantastic way to see Washington, DC and all the major monuments. We were able to see so much, take lots of pictures, and really enjoy the city along the way. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the tour fun and interesting. Definitely a great way to explore DC, and we would highly recommend it!
5***** enjoyed every minute of it. The guide was the best I ever had on any tour. The open air ride was amazing
Our tour guy Kevin was phenomenal very informative. Only bad side about this tour is not fun when the weather is bad.
Our guide Patrick was great and very knowledgeable. We were able to see many sites of interest. Was a great tour.
Very informative about all the monuments, the Washington monument said they had filmed Spider Man on that.im was a kid when all the DC comics and the rest, that was awesome to hear and see that in person
This open air vehicle goes in heavy traffic and didn’t feel safe with a 7 and 8-year old. Many of the seat belts were non functional. Length of tour, and number and choice of stops, were good. Guide was very pleasant. I chose this tour based on timing and cost. Next time, I’ll opt for a bus and a nighttime tour - it was very hot!!
Really enjoyed the experience. Our tour guide Kevin was very good. We learned so much about the history and had a lot of fun .
We had such a great experience on our open air bus tour of Washington, DC! There’s something very special about seeing the monuments at night. Even though we had some rain along the way, it honestly didn’t take away from the experience at all. It was a fun way to see so much of the city, and we learned a ton along the way. A huge shoutout to our driver, Kevin, who was absolutely fantastic! He went above and beyond to make the experience memorable and enjoyable for us. He was knowledgeable, friendly, accommodating and genuinely seemed to want to make sure everyone was having a great time. We would definitely recommend this tour — and if you happen to get Kevin as your driver, you’re in for an extra-special experience!
The tour was so much fun as well as insightful. Our tour guide was very awesome. Booking was easy and they got back to me quickly when I sent a message.
Our guide was wonderful and very knowledgeable. We would go again and make other trips with him. His name was Feyzi
I had an incredible experience on this tour. Everything was well organized from start to finish, and our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing local history and culture. The itinerary was perfectly planned, giving us enough time to explore and take photos without feeling rushed. The scenery was breathtaking, and the transportation was comfortable and punctual. I especially appreciated the guide's attention to detail and willingness to answer questions. This tour exceeded my expectations and made my trip truly memorable.
Kevin our guide was very knowledgeable and very intelligent. Really enjoyed our tour with my family.
Fantastic experience, great service and worth every penny. Very thorough and efficient for the 1 1/2 - 2 hrs you have.
A very inclusive tour with a very knowledgeable and friendly leader. I recommend it to anyone who visits DC.
There was some initial confusion as many people were waiting for different tours and we were the last to be put in a vehicle - but not the right one. I questioned our assignment and eventually our cart arrived. After that it was a very enjoyable evening and the guide was great.
We were able to get up close to all of the monuments. The golf cart was easy for my 80 year old mother to get in and out of, and the proximity of parking to the monuments was easy for her to manage walking. Our tour guide did an excellent job, and she was new to the job. She had lots of info and facts to share. She was a safe driver.
The tour was just okay , lots of road work. Driver seem to be lost many times. Never got close to the White House.Don't know why he didn't do that. The whole thing seemed extremely rushed and confusing.
We had a very good experience. Lorenzo was a great driver and was very interesting. I brought my high school students and they enjoyed it.
Adie was the best tour guide. She was so knowledgeable and personable. She was sure to make it an enjoyable experience for both adults and children in our group. Highly recommend! Thank you Adie!
What a perfect way to see the sites. Comfortable and relaxing. Excellent tour guide with so much knowledge.
We recently went on the DC Monument and Memorial Guided Cart tour. Unfortunately this was not a cart. It was a hard sided blue bus which was not what was advertised (crowded and hot). Also there was no mention of Jefferson memorial, Roosevelt memorial, MLK memorial, botanic gardens, Vietnam memorial, Korean memorial, or Chinatown. I asked the company for a refund with no response.
Good trip, a little bit of time was needed, loved the city, the driver was very kind, we made good friends during the road trip.
Roads blocked off. They still booked us. We didn’t see one monument. Your guide was very inexperienced. They refunded half of our money.
Took the night tour to see everything lit up! Cool evening breeze & gorgeous sunset. Great way to see the monuments around the mall. Easy hop on hop off for viewing with accessibility being short mostly flat walks. Loved getting photos with family. Friendly guide Amarius answered our questions & was a pleasure to hang out with for over 2 hours. Comfortable bench seating, 2 people per row.
It was all inclusive, saw almost all the major sites to see. Tour guide was very good, knew alot. Had alot of fun
Great tour. It was so nice being driven to the steps of all the monuments. Make sure to bring water because the open-air golf carts mean you feel the heat and humidity. Ask for Kevin. He was the best.
The driver was very knowledgeable and very helpful! Perfect timing on stops we didn’t have to rush nor wait on the tour to resume. We had a great time.
This tour was fun and highly recommend Grant our tour guide. He was friendly and informative, accommodating and knowledgeable. Navigating the traffic went without a hitch and felt safe in our wee "cab" - thank you!
Great experience and tour guide Grant was very knowledgeable!! It was a wonderful tour and would take it again.
The actual driver was lovely guy and tried his best . The buggy however was a 12 seater missing seat belts and no speaker. The people organizing who got what buggy were confused disorganized and we left late. And this was after they called me earlier in the day to ask if I could do another time.
Fun tour with knowledgeable guide. Got to see things we had never seen before. Time to walk around and take pictures.
The tour was very enjoyable considering the limited time we had. Our tour guide, Feyci, was very professional and friendly throughout the trip. We highly recommend the company to everyone.
Two hours was perfect for seeing so much! A few short stops along the way was also lovely. Our guide was informative without being “stuffy” and was incredibly pleasant! I would highly recommend this tour!!
Great tour, our tour guide Sal was informative and kind. Good overview, glad we took this tour! Thank you!
The tour was amazing and our tour guide Kevin was so informative. I would definitely recommend this tour
Lorenzo was great! Very knowledgeable and treated each guest a of they were the only ones there! We would recommend this tour to anyone!
Great site seeing tour Great tour guide Knowledgeable of the areas Very patient and allow time to see the sites
The guide was wonderful, nice and knowledgeable. I would book again or suggest to my family and friends.
Lorenzo was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of new information! He kept our group together and was able to keep track of everyone while providing interesting commentary. My only issue was it seemed fast-paced/rushed. We returned 15 mins early
