It's great to know her knowledge and sense of humor made the tour both informative and enjoyable. We appreciate your support and hope to welcome you back again soon! 😊
We loved the small sized (6 passengers) group size. Our tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable and funny. At the stops where we got off it was just enough time to see the site, take some pictures and then keep moving. It was a great experience
We're so happy you enjoyed the small-group setting—it really allows for a more personal and relaxed tour. It's wonderful to hear our guide made the journey fun, informative, and engaging while giving you just the right amount of time at each stop to explore and capture memories. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for another adventure in Washington, DC! Again Thanks so much Michell for sharing your experience!
It was awesome. Loved the car and kelsey our guide was great. Loved seeing the sites at night, and it cut down on walking after a long day.
We truly appreciate your wonderful review! Thanks Nina_L! We're also delighted to hear you had such an awesome experience. Exploring Washington, DC at night is a special way to see the city, and we're so glad the cart made it comfortable after a full day of walking. We'll be sure to share your kind words with Kelsey—she'll be thrilled to know she helped make your evening memorable. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable tour in the future!
It was a good site seeing trip, guys very knowledgeable. Only complaint is last seats face backwards, you really shouldn't book those because as you are traveling you cant see anything
Thank you David_W for taking the time to share your feedback! We're so glad you enjoyed the sightseeing tour and found our guide knowledgeable—that means a lot to us. We also appreciate your honest comments about the rear-facing seats. We understand how that seating position can make it harder to enjoy the views while the cart is moving, and we'll certainly keep your feedback in mind as we continue looking for ways to improve the experience for all of our guests. We truly appreciate you joining us and hope we'll have the opportunity to welcome you back for another tour in the future!
The National Park Service issues Entry / Ticket for FREE, but you they apparently get grabbed up as soon as they release them. The Tickets I received from Viator were $20 each and to me was well worth the price. We were able to get in earlier than our scheduled entry time. The Park Rangers were very professional and helpful. I would definitely recommend spending the $20 than the other options I found on being able to enter in a timely manner,
We're delighted to hear that everything went smoothly and that you were able to enter even earlier than your scheduled time. While the National Park Service offers free tickets in limited quantities, they can be extremely difficult to secure due to high demand. We're glad we could provide a convenient option that helped make your visit stress-free and worthwhile. We truly appreciate your kind words about the Park Rangers as well, and we're grateful for your recommendation. We hope you had an amazing time exploring the Washington Monument and the rest of Washington, DC! Thanks you Mark_H
Perfect way to see DC! Friendly, informative and safe driver! Hot to see alot in a short period of time
Hi Jennifer! Thank you so much for leaving us such a fantastic review! We are thrilled to hear that you got to see so much of D.C. in a short time while feeling safe and well-informed. Our driver will be delighted to know they made your tour so memorable. We hope to welcome you back for another trip next time you're in town!
It is worth taking the e-cart transport because it is very comfortable, easy to get in and out of, has good visibility, and you cover the essentials in record time, which would take a very long time walking. The itinerary and the chosen stops are very good, but I missed a little more explanation of the city's history. Basically, they just list what you see, the different monuments, but with little historical context. I imagine it depends on the driver you get.
Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're glad you enjoyed the comfort of the e-cart and the itinerary. We also appreciate your feedback about the historical commentary, as it helps us continue improving the experience. We hope to welcome you back for another tour in the future!
A fun and agile way to visit the Washington monuments. Our guide, Adie, was informative and fun. We were able to navigate busy streets and complicated parking availability easily.
Thank you for your wonderful review Jane! We're delighted to hear Adie made your tour both fun and informative. It's great to know you enjoyed exploring the monuments while avoiding the hassle of traffic and parking. We appreciate your support and hope to see you again soon!
What is shown and described in the picture is not what you get for transportation. We booked this thinking we’d be riding around in an open air golf cart and ended up on a bus
Hi Chris_T! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the transportation didn't match your expectations. We understand how disappointing it can be when you book with a specific experience in mind. Our goal is always to use our open-air carts whenever possible, but on occasion we may need to substitute them with a bus due to operational or safety reasons. We recognize that this changes the experience, and we'll continue working to make these situations clearer to our guests before their tour. We truly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve both our communication and the overall guest experience. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to learn from your experience.
