Family of 7, DC visit during government shutdown

We used Monumental Tours for transportation and 2 tours while in DC. Our family ranged in ages 4-77. Fawzi was a friendly, safe and very reliable driver. Edgar was a wonderful tour guide that had so much information that our history loving family enjoyed. He kept our 4 year old engaged while entertaining all of us for a 7 hour tour! We chose which sites to visit after reviewing Edgar and Abe's suggestions. We got our money's worth since they helped us pack in so much of DC, Mt Vernon and Alexandria. Edgar also took many fun photos of us and shared them. We have already recommended them to other friends. 10+ of 10!

Operator response

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this wonderful review! It was our pleasure to support your family’s visit to Washington, DC! We’re thrilled to hear that Fawzi made you feel comfortable on the road and that Edgar brought the history of DC, Mount Vernon, and Old Town Alexandria to life in a fun and memorable way. It means a lot to us that he was able to keep everyone engaged and get some great photos along the way! We’re grateful you trusted our team’s recommendations to help you make the most of your time here. Packing in that much sightseeing is a feat — well done! Thank you for the 10/10 rating and for already recommending us to your friends. We truly appreciate it and look forward to welcoming you back on your next trip to DC! Warm regards, Abe & the Monumental Tours Team

Great walking tour of DC

I am a socials studies teacher from New York and took my 8th grade class to DC for an overnight trip. Abe was extremely responsive, flexible, and accommodating, and Edgar (the tour guide) was knowledge and friendly. It was the first thing we did when we got off the bus after a five hour drive, and it was the perfect introduction to the city. I would highly recommend it!

THE BEST TOUR IN THE WORLD

This was the best tour I have ever been on and it was very educational for me and my family. Ibrahim is the best for making sure we went on the right tour and making sure it was the most fun time with family. I wish I could go back right now to do another tour with them.
