The tour guide is very knowledgeable and polite. He offered a wide range of information about various points in history. Additionally, he provided local recommendations on places to eat and museums based on one's interest.
Our guide never showed up and won't respond to inquiries about refunding our money! I never thought Viator would be complicit in a scam, but I don't know what else to call this. Viator is apparently turning a blind eye to this fraud, which means we won't be using them again. I saw other reviews about the guide not showing up for this tour and refusing to refund money, but I foolishly thought it was an anomaly. We've been on tours throughout Europe and the U.S. and have never been scammed like this. Please don't risk your hard-earned money on this "tour."
Our tour guide was the best!! So friendly & knowledgeable! Enjoyed listening to him & my Army Vet husband connect over history! THANK YOU!!!
The guide never showed up. I got zero value. We were on time and waited for 20 minutes at the meeting spot There was no cancellation or notice. Will not recommend this service.
We cancelled this tour and were never refunded. Tour operator even refused to call back. Terrible experience.
The guide tour, North was so knowledgeable, he went an extra mile to made us enjoy the Washington National mall tour.
Our tour guide, Maurice, was so great! He was so knowledgeable and helpful! He even helped guide us to parking and helped us find the best way our next destination that wasn't on the tour! Outstanding tour! We'd definitely recommend and tour with him again in the future!
The tour lasted less than an hour when the description offered a 2-hour tour. Out of 60 minutes, 15 were spent at a rest stop, where we purchased water and went to the restroom, meaning that we only enjoyed 45 minutes of touring!
Nour was a great host. Very accomodating and knowledgeable. The tour is a must of you are coming to DC for the first time.
Nur was a fantastic tour guide. He met us at exactly the appointed time and started giving information about this lovely city instantly. He told us facts about everything - from the trees to the buildings and people in history. We walked and talked and 2 hours flew by. I highly recommend this tour.
