Very informative and accommodating. Loved that our family could ride together and ELD was waiting on us whenever we were ready to go. It was a hot day in DC and the cooled minivan and water bottles were very welcome

Just awesome…! Great private tour of the District and surrounding area. Historical narration was very interesting and informative! Well Done!!!
Eddie Davenport was our guide on this 3 hour Washington DC tour. His vast knowledge of DC made each part of the tour extremely interested
The customer executive for us Marlon and Maria were excellent and did they best to book a tour for us and made our trip comfortable 👍 Thanku
The background information that Eddie provided n the various monuments was wonderful. In particular, the info he gave us on the FDR and MLK monuments was so , so edifying.
Eddie was informative, patient, flexible and very entertaining! He knows absolutely everything about DC and was able to zig and zag with our interests and timing. It is a great tour with enough time to take photos and see a wide variety of the best of DC. Highly recommend!
