Fantastic Tour if Washington DC

Our trip was fantastic. Our driver, Matt, was the best. He was very professional and knowledgeable. The stops were well covered and his knowledge was great. Our Arlington stop was challenging since it was very hot but he allowed time to rest. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the history of our country.
Not to good for people with mobility issues

Ww thought the guide Matt was very knowledgeable! The only problem we had with the trip was the fact that I have mobility issues and was unable to do most if it. This is a great tour for families. Matt was very attentive to the children and made the tour more exciting for them
Response from Host , Jul 2022
Thank you both for visiting us from Canada. Here in the states, it is a challenge to keep children engaged on a tour that involves a lot of history which to be honest mainly caters to adults. We apologize you didn't hear all of the different options for those with mobility issues. At Arlington(the most strenuous stop) we recommended the tram. At the memorials, the elevator was not working at Lincoln and that's outside of our control. You stated to the driver that you heard the Smithsonian museums were not ADA accessible and we told you that is incorrect in fact they are and that is the side you were purposely dropped of on for your free time. If you ever come back to the USA and decide to take our tour we will gladly rent a motorized scooter for you to travel around on such a hot day as it was so you don't have to be pushed around by someone else.

My family thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Matt was wonderful and made it memorable for my family. I appreciate how he was efficient with our time and made sure to hit the highlights. As much as possible was packed into the day without ever making us feel rushed. I have already recommended to others!
Wonderful Washington

Our guide Matt was so knowledgeable and entertaining. We all learned so much.
The World War II Memorial was new for us. It was beautiful. The Korean Memorial was also new to us. It was eerie and was like being there. As before, the Vietnam War wall was heartbreaking. It was our grandkids’ first trip to DC and having Matt as our guide was perfect.
Matt was a great tour...

We were truly amazed by the amount of knowledge our guide (Matt) bestowed upon us throughout the tour. I was, at first, hesitant to book a bus tour as we usually like to venture out on our own, but realize now how much history we would have not known or been made aware of without this tour. We would highly recommend this company to anyone.
Wonderful experience

Washington D.C Area in a day
Laveta_B

What a great way for us to see so much of Washington D.C.! We seen and/or stopped at many different sights, Washington Monument, Pentagon, Arlington Cemetery, Lincoln Memorial, Vietnam War Memorial, Korean War Memorial, National Mall, National Capitol, WW2 Memorial, and the White House. Matt, our tour guide shared so much history and background about each sight, making it so interesting and memorable. We liked his personable manner and humor. The 2 hour free time in the afternoon was perfect for us to grab a bite to eat and check out one of the Smithsonian’s Art Galleries and Sculpture park. We definitely would recommend this trip, it is a full busy day 6:30am-9:45pm, packed with lots of history and sights and walking.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
