ワシントン DC のプライベート & カスタム ガイド付き市内ツアー

Fun and Information filled private tour of the U.S. Capitol building and a trip out to Mt. Vernon. Alan was an excellent guide who provided lots of history and background for places we toured and the people who made those places historic. Particularly fun was his frequent identification of “Easter eggs” embedded at locations or in artworks.

Booked a half day tour with Alan through an award I received from my employer. Our tour began with some historical facts, a couple of jokes, some quiz questions and drove around Washington D.C. Stopped and took photos at the Capital building, Supreme Court building and the White House. Then headed to the monuments: Washington, WWII, Vietnam War and Lincoln monuments. Took a break at the cafe while Alan ran back to get the car so we wouldn't have to walk, which was much appreciated considering it was 90 degrees and my father was in a scooter. Finally off to Arlington Cemetery to see see famous graves, pay our respects to the fallen soldiers and witness the changing of the guards which was a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness in person. Alan was great, very knowledgeable of history not only of Washington D.C. but American History in general. He was funny and a pleasure to be around....would highly recommend him and book another tour in the future. My father said it was the best tour he has ever had!!!!

Alan was an exceptional tour guide, not only did his knowledge about the history of everything we saw overwhelm us but the humor he brought with it made our day! He shared data we would have never known or heard about! Phenomenal day with him!!!

It was an amazing in depth tour of Arlington National Cemetery and Mount Vernon by an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide

The tour was great! Alan was incredibly knowledgeable. He told us the history of each place we visited and shared constantly as we toured. There were so many hidden gems that we didn’t know about before, even though we visited DC before. We love history and asked for our tour to focus on that and Alan sure did, going way above and beyond. He even took us into congress in session so that we could see the process and talked about the history of that. This was the best tour we have been on!

Alan is extremely knowledgeable about history and encourages questions. He turns what could be boring history into really interesting stories. This was particularly good for our group, which included two teenage kids. He was great about engaging them throughout the tour. We also loved that we could fully customize the tour to our particular interests. This is in no way Alan's fault, but it was in the 90's the day of our tour, so we were all wilting by the end of our four hours together. Having resided in DC myself, I know that DC is an impossible town to park in. You definitely will have to do some walking in between monuments but Alan does a good job of strategically parking so you're closet to the car on the way back, when you're wiped out. We would highly recommend Alan. He is knowledgeable, entertaining and thorough!

Alan was a complete delight! This was our second tour with him, and we all had so much fun. Our group of 6 had grandparents, tweens, and middle aged-millennials, and everyone was fully entertained the whole day. We asked for something off the beaten path and he totally delivered. Alan orchestrated every detail from pick up to drop off. You don’t have to worry about a single thing! He arranged every bit of our day from our itinerary to tickets to what to eat, and he knew so many stories about the places we visited!! He even carries water bottles around for you! Full service! Booking with Alan is a no-brainer. Can’t wait for our next tour with him!

Touring with Alan was the best decision we made! It took our short trip to DC from overwhelming to outstanding! Alan made it super easy to organize key stops and encouraged my son (9 / first time to DC) to share his thoughts and questions at every stop. From ease of travel around DC, Arlington, and the Air and Space Hanger in Chantilly, Alan made 2 long days unbelievably fun, inspiring and educational. From his knowledge, stories, and jokes, we laughed our way through miles of monuments and memories! Truly a worthwhile experience to add to your first or 10th time visiting DC.

Family of 4, including one 8yo and one 11yo. First-time tour-takers of Washington, D.C. There are many options available but if remotely in your budget, I would highly advise securing a tour with Concierge/Alan to make it easier on yourself to navigate the requisite logistics of your visits, get the most of your time, and learn about whatever interests you most during your visit. It's worth it. Our kids said it was the best part of their Washington, D.C. stay, and were able to remain reasonably engaged and entertained throughout the full-day tour. They especially enjoyed the trivia questions. Recommended for families.

We booked a full day tour with Alan and enjoyed every minute of it. Alan contacted us immediately after booking to plan our customized tour itinerary which, for us, included the National Mall National Archives and Arlington National Cemetery. He also secured passes to the newly opened undercroft at the Lincoln Memorial. Alan is a wealth of knowledge and pointed out so many of what he calls “Easter Eggs” or special bits of information. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with Alan and will definitely book him again on our next trip. Highly Recommend!
