John was very informative. Learned and saw a lot in 3 hrs despite traffic. Just wish windows weren’t tinted. Made it s bit harder to see in the evening. But overall GREAT!
We were very disappointed with the tour. We rode in a black van with large windows but they weren’t clean so we couldn’t see clearly. The driver was also the guide and he wasn’t very pleasent. The information about the monuments was dull and unintersting. Almost no historical details. After 9:30 PM it’s hard to see what’s going on outside. It was long a boring. A few weeks ago we had a similar tour in Boston which was way better so we can compare.
We enjoyed this night tour and was so thankful to our tour guide who was so informative and helpful to us with dropping us at our hotel that was close by at the end of the tour! Thank you
This tour was disappointing. I had done something similar a few years ago so I had an idea of what it should be and was excited to share the experience with my husband and friend. This basically ended up being a "drive by" of most monuments. If we did stop, you had 10 minutes. We heard a lot about the trees blocking the view because that's 80%of what we got - views from inside the bus (windows weren't even clean). Driver didn't even leave the bus when we did stop. A dangerous drive. An "exchange" between the driver and park patrol due to the drivers reckless driving. The driver loves the horn! What a way to take the joy and excitement out of the tour. The driver was also very unfriendly! My husband loves everyone. Not this driver. He was very rude, ignored questions from the passengers, and just plain unpleasant. The ticket said water included. Nope. The driver rudely said there was no water and that we were misled by "a third party" vendor. He told one passenger to go ask for water from another unrelated bus. He told another one to go to the water fountain. I could go on but I won't. I would never recommend this company and I would reconsider having this trip on your site.
I was really excited about this tour to explore all the iconic monuments in DC. However, upon boarding the bus, I was disappointed to find out that there was no water available despite it being mentioned on my ticket. The driver's unfriendly demeanor didn't help either. When I inquired about the water, he dismissively directed me to another bus. It was disheartening to receive such a response, especially considering the price of the ticket. Throughout the tour, the driver continued to disappoint. He ignored questions, drove recklessly, and even attracted attention from a police officer for his behavior. The lack of safety measures and the uncomfortably hot conditions inside the bus made the experience even worse. His rudeness towards passengers was the final straw for me, and I seriously considered leaving the tour halfway through. Overall, I cannot recommend this tour to anyone. The unprofessionalism and disregard for passenger comfort exhibited by the driver made it a disappointing and potentially unsafe experience.
We booked the tour through Viator but the guide had no record of my husband and I so we had to send over a copy of our tickets to someone on the phone which was not a great way to start. Enjoyed seeing the sights at night. We got very close to the White House which was really cool. The city is quite beautiful at night. Our guide could have been better, I always prefer tours where the guide is not just pointing out sights but telling some history and stories to engage you. Our guide was focused on making sure we knew were we were around the city providing street names and directions, also helpful but not my preference. The other thing that was annoying was that he kept telling us we were behind schedule. I am not sure how that happened as it was a 730pm tour and there were no tickets to get into sites.
We did the morning tour. This was an excellent way to get a feel for the city and an overview of the different sites. Our driver and guide who went by the name, Big Red, did an excellent job. We did a hop on hop off tour the day before and wished we had done things in reverse. Either way I would highly recommend this tour, especially if walking is not your thing.
Frank our bus driver was very informative and hosted a great tour. Frank went above and beyond to assist all on the tour.
saw most of the top memorials and places of interest with as many stops as they could pack in, fun filled day and nice large bud with 12-20 people max
The tour guide Bobby and his amazing sense of humor is the most memorable part of my trip. He educated us in a very entertaining way. I also almost got lost the group but everyone looked for me and I continued the tour with them.
