Excellent tour guide and convenient tour!

The tour was exactly what I expected. I planed this tour to show around the capitol for my 80 year old mom, who came to visit us from Sri Lanka. Brittany was excellent and she was on time waiting to pick us up from the hotel, and she was highly caring about us, specially she helped my mom as I was using a wheelchair for her to easily get around. With this private tour it was very convenient for us, since I did not have to worry about driving around holding Google maps, and I will not be able to to cover all of it. It was gorgeous day and we started around 11 am and was able to cover almost everything by 3.00 pm, we were able to get down from the car and Brittany did guide us and explained everything we should know about all important places. She also helped us take pictures around places and never rushed us. Brittany is excellent tour guide and recommended anyone, and she knows and loves this task of taking people around places,! Thank you for all the help and I wish her great success!
