Mt. Vernon and Monument Tour
This was a fabulous tour and Robert was exceptional! He was so informative and made the tour great. The van needs some updating but other than that it was awesome!

Itinerary
U.S. Capitol
The Capitol Building centers a 450-acre Capitol Campus that includes House and Senate office buildings, the U.S. Botanic Garden, the Library of Congress, and the Supreme Court. Immediately surrounding the Capitol are 59 acres of beautifully kept grounds, landscaped originally in 1892 by Frederick Law Olmsted, who also planned New York City’s Central Park. Stroll these winding paths and admire the flower plantings and memorial trees. Before you get too close to the Capitol, stand back to take a look at the “Statue of Freedom,” the 19-foot-tall bronze female figure crowning the Capitol’s dome.
Lincoln Memorial
This beautiful and moving tribute to the nation’s 16th president attracts millions of visitors annually. Like its fellow presidential memorials, the Lincoln was a long time in the making. Although it was planned as early as 1867 — 2 years after Lincoln’s death — Henry Bacon’s design was not completed until 1912, and the memorial was dedicated in 1922. Join Loba Tours for a tour in Washington DC to find out about one of Lincoln’s many legends!

Just so you know!!
The full day tour is actually am tour on a small vehicle ending at 2pm and the afternoon tour begins at 2pm in a smaller van but had 5 min to run in to Hyatt to get snacks to eat in the van on the way to Mt. Vernon. The am tour covers the monuments and driver made a good effort to get us close to them with minimum walking. Mt Vernon the grounds are lovely but the mansion part of tour is under construction so. There is a long line and then viewing is limited to 4 rooms. The museum was closed. The film was very worthwhile .

Easy to plan last minute
I had seen some of these items when I was 16 so I had an appreciation for them. As moving as the Korea and ?Vietnam memorials were, I enjoyed the FDR memorial most. I planned this last minute trip and two friends wanted to come along even after my last minute. Viator tours made this easy to plan as I had confidence in them, having used them several times, that my friends would enjoy the tours and appreciate my planning. I could not have done this without Viator.

Good, not great.
Our tour guide for the DC city was very knowledgeable. The only trouble I had was that he spent so much time regurgitating facts and figures, that I didn’t get much ‘interesting’ information. He would spew data at us then quiz us on the numbers. Seems more like he was trying to teach a class than give a tour. The mt Vernon part of the tour was on your own, and good. I recommend it. The driver to/from mt Vernon had a lot of info to share, including comments about his family and politics which were colorful but not really what I wanted as part of a tour. I’m glad we did this tour and would recommend it. We have had better tour experiences but this is still a good way to get a whirlwind tour of DC if you only have a day to do it.
