This tour was amazing, Cassie and Chris were phenomenal. We were the only two who booked the full day tour in our group so when the half day was done, it was us and them. Cassie was extremely full of historical knowledge and delivered it with great enthusiasm and excitement. Chris was more then professional and accommodating, he even dropped us off closer to our hotel. These two made our first trip to Washington kick off on the right foot!!!! Thank y'all so much!!!

Very good driver and excellent tour guide Ty! Enjoyed greatly the tour we had! My only issue is I payed for a 6 hour tour that was not like the description. It said we were going to Washington monument and inside never happened and they dropped us off at 3 an hour and a half early. If this didn’t happen it would have been 5 stars but I feel cheated a little

The tour was excellent and our tour guide and driver were fantastic, truly a 5+ star tour. Learned a lot about the area. The reason for 4 stars rather than 5 stars is due the lack of truth in advertising: Washington Monument entry IS NOT included, very disappointed that a lack of honesty from corporate took away from an otherwise excellent tour.
