Our Bus Driver was Godfrey and our tour guide was Sally. Both were very knowledgeable about the city. Sally was very informative about the city an the monuments. we had plenty of time to see each of the monuments and take pictures. The August night was hot, but the ac on the bus kept us cool as we drove from monument to monument. They had water bottles ready for us if we needed. Unfortunately the city roads were shutting down for the Grand Prix next week, but Godfrey and Sally were flexible and took us to where we needed to be.
This was an amazing experience! We were concerned about the weather and road closures throughout the city, but they made sure we hit all the spots. The information given was phenomenal. Do not overlook this tour!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re truly happy to hear that you had such a great experience with us. It means a lot to know you enjoyed your time exploring DC. We look forward to welcoming you again on your next visit! Malaak.
Awesome guide! Awesome driver! We had such a great time on this night bus tour. Plenty of stops and plenty of amazing information from the guide.
We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience! We're so glad you had a wonderful time and enjoyed the tour. It would be our pleasure to have you join us again in the future! Malaak.
Too dark to see anything clearly. Plenty of folks could not hear the tour guide. Lots of mosquitoes, and we didn’t get close enough to see the Capitol or White House.
We really enjoyed the tour, great driver and fantastic tour guide, very knowledgeable and friendly! Highly recommend the trip! Great way to get around the city and learn about the history to start your visit in DC!
Thank you for your lovely review! We're delighted to know that your experience met your expectations. We hope to see you again soon for another great adventure in DC! Malaak.
Chris the driver was amazing. Sally was our tour guide, she was very knowledgeable, but very opinionated and wasn’t afraid to let you know her opinions. We did enjoy all of the stops but would have like more historical information about each stop

The reason I chose this tour was because in the advertising of it I saw a small tour bus similar to an oversized golf cart and thought this would be a small group with plenty of opportunity to view the monuments. Instead, I was packed into a commercial bus where I couldn’t see half of the sites (unless we stopped) as the driver spend by. The guide talked of her personal experiences more than the monuments itself. Overall, I was disappointed because I paid for myself and my partner thinking we’d have a unique experience, but didn’t.

Great experience! The tour group consisted of about 40 people. The fee was worth the travel in an air conditioned bus, there was complimentary water, helpful cuz I forgot my bottle at home.. because of the upcoming F1, many of the roads were closed. Thankfully the tour was flexible, giving the guests a heads up on how the tour will go, and giving clear instructions on how much time at designated stops, and where the extent of the distance to walk to. The tour guide is knowledgeable! Atmosphere is pretty laid back :).
