Requesting Refund due to hardware and equipment failure.

That Viator, as a company will not support a valid claim by the consumer when their equipment is broken resulting in the customers being subjected to deplorable and unacceptable conditions, by even the lowest standards. Services not as described due to defective/broken equipment. Operator was told about these conditions several times. Did nothing. Filed complaint with viator. They did nothing but deny and twist our words. Requesting complete refund. See booking ID 1444100631. Will be following up with complaint.

Operator response

We’re sorry you were unhappy with the experience, but we do want to clarify a few points. Our electric carts are brand new, well maintained, and we did not have a defective or broken vehicle on this tour. You joined the tour during light rain, and as stated in our policy, tours operate rain or shine unless there is heavy rain, lightning, thunderstorms, or unsafe weather conditions. Our carts are equipped with rain covers, and the tour operated as scheduled. We understand that the rain affected your enjoyment of the experience, and you later requested a full refund. Because the tour was provided and the vehicle was operating normally, we were not able to approve a full refund. We always take guest concerns seriously and do our best to provide a safe and enjoyable experience, even when the weather is less than ideal.

Not your average bus tour.

A little more personal and interactive then a big bus tour. Covered all the major sights and driver was willing to take group pictures for us at several which was nice. Driver seemed knowledgeable, had a sense of humor and not overly political, which was appreciated.

Operator response

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We’re really glad you enjoyed the more personal small-group experience and had a chance to see all the major sights. It’s great to hear your guide made the tour fun, informative, and helped capture some photos along the way too. We truly appreciate you choosing us!

Our guide was more...

Our guide was more interested in the World Bank and his dissatisfaction with the Trump administration than the sights we were seeing. The electric vehicle was great!

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re glad you enjoyed the electric vehicle. We’re sorry the commentary felt too focused on personal political opinions rather than the sights and history of Washington, DC. Our guides are expected to keep the tour informative, balanced, and focused on the monuments, landmarks, and history. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will address it with our team.

Great Tour

Leigh was our guide and she was amazing. So knowledgeable, easy going and fun. The city was very crowded but Leigh maneuvered through heavy traffic like a pro. I can't say enough good things about Leigh. Definitely recommend her!

Operator response

Thank you so much! We’re really glad you had such a great time with Leigh. She’s knowledgeable, easygoing, and does a great job keeping the tour enjoyable even when DC traffic gets busy. We’ll definitely pass along your kind words to her. We really appreciate the recommendation and thank you for choosing us.

It was nice travelling on...

It was nice travelling on an open air car to see the sights. Jared was knowledgeable and was able to answer questions but there was a group of 4 that showed up late to the tour causing a delay in starting. They joined at the 3rd stop and then when given deadlines for time for the visits, they were constantly late and we were always waiting which was unenjoyable. People that don’t comply need to be reprimanded better so they understand that it is rude and inconvenient for everyone else including the driver. That made my experience in enjoyable and I ended hopping off earlier because I was frustrated by the trip

Operator response

Thank you for taking the time to share this. We’re glad you enjoyed the open-air cart and Jared’s knowledge, but we’re sorry the delays caused by other guests took away from your experience. We do ask everyone to respect the return times at each stop, and we understand how frustrating it is when that doesn’t happen. We’ll remind our guides to be firmer about keeping the group on schedule so everyone can enjoy the full tour.

Ok but lacking

Jared was very friendly and knowledgeable. Older people don't move as fast young people, stops are hardly long enough since drop offs require a lengthy walk to memorials. Also we were supposed to stop by the White House, but couldn't. We also didn't see the WWII and the Vietnam War memorial's which was disappointing. We paid to see them but didn't. The tour was expensive and for that amount of money the tour should have been 3 hours.

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re glad Jared was friendly and knowledgeable. We understand some guests may need more time at the stops, especially when there is a longer walk to a memorial. Unfortunately, the White House area can sometimes be closed without notice by the Secret Service, which is outside of our control. The WWII and Vietnam Veterans Memorials are listed on our published itinerary as pass-by sights, not scheduled stops. During our 2-hour tour, we stop at several major monuments and pass by others so we can show guests as much of DC as possible. We also understand your comments about the price. We wish the costs of operating a sightseeing business in Washington, DC were lower so we could offer even lower prices. We always try to provide the best value possible while keeping our tours small, safe, and well guided. We appreciate you joining us and sharing your feedback.

A great experience.

Cute little car with a nice, informative guide. We had a great time! We got out of the car several times for a short walk to see the different monuments and take pictures. We brought my 81 y/o grandma. It was a little hot this time of year for her (early September) Other than that, we enjoyed the experience very much!

Operator response

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re glad you enjoyed your Washington, DC monuments tour, the comfortable E-Cart ride, and your informative guide. It’s great to hear you had several chances to get out, take short walks, see the monuments up close, and take photos. We also appreciate you bringing your 81-year-old grandma along. Early September in DC can still be quite warm, so we completely understand. We’re happy your family enjoyed the sightseeing experience with us.
