Chris was spectacular! We anticipated more of a scripted presentation, closely monitored times and being ushered along. Instead it was as if your favorite cousin took you on the tour, he was friendly and personable. He not only knew the the area and history of the surroundings but he thoroughly knew the history and details of Arlington and Washington's Mount Vernon. He gave us guidance and pointed out easy to miss significant landmarks. He was accommodating, flexible, and punctual. We had such a great time.
Absolutely loved this tour. So informative and fun.
This was a great way to see both Arlington National Cemetery and Mount Vernon all in one day, without the worry of figuring out transportation! Christopher shared his knowledge throughout the day and we learned a lot! So much better with a guide, than trying to figure it out on our own!
This was a wonderful experience and learning from Chris was great! We enjoyed the drive and the food at Mt Vernon was great, too!
Our family had a great time on this tour! Our guide was knowledgeable and obviously loves what he does. There was never a lag, even when we were diving or walking from place to place, he was relaying new information. He also gave us options on how much and how little we wanted to do. This tour was definitely a highlight of our D.C. trip!
Christopher was great! He is friendly, knowledgeable and fun with his facts. He is kid-friendly and riding in his Sprinter van was super comfortable. We’ll be back to do more with him!
Chris was a very knowledgeable guide and knows his history and facts. Had bathrooms and watering holes figures out. Spent 6 hours and no one in the family regretted hiring him. Considering doing more tours with him while in DC. Thanks Chris for the great day and going above and beyond....
Chris was great! Showed up on time, adjusted the tour to what we wanted to do, was a wealth of knowlege and ensured we were not run over by all those teenagers (had eldery in our group)!!!. He was a wonderful guide!
Our tour guide was a wealth of information. He was very patient with my kids and adapted the tour to fit our needs. Although more expensive than I wanted to pay, compared to the other options, it was worth the experience for the quality.
We were looking for a way to see as much as possible in our first day in DC. The tour was absolutely great! Chris got us the best up close and personal view of the changing of the guard you could ever want you could almost touch the guards. We got a very good over view of the Capital, the tour was everything we hoped for and more! I felt Chris went the extra mile to personalize the tour. I would highly recommend this tour!
