A perfect tour to get a taste of DC if you have just one day available. We did the our with our kids 3, 8 and even the stroller was no problem. Our guide was perfect, besides very good information on DC also some funny remarks, even the kids like it. If you have only one day just do this tour, it is perfect.

Fantastic tour of Washington DC with great guide. You'll get to visit most major sites in one day.

Absolutely worth every penny. Our tour guide was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable of DC and my entire family from my parents to my kids had a great time. Travelling in the air conditioned bus was wonderful. If you wanted to get off and visit the sites you could or for my parents if you wanted to only see a couple from the bus you had that option as well. It was a great experience and I would use the service again. A must do in DC.

I think the destinations were a good mix of what one would want to see. Several of the stops, particularly the FDR, Korean War, and Marine Memorials were just awesome. Our tour guide was informative, extremely knowledgeable and personable. He pointed out many points of interest that could be done after the main tour. The bus was very comfortable, and the drop-off and pickup points did not require excessive distance. The cooler was stocked with complimentary cold water. This was my 78-year-old Mom's first tour of our country's incredible testimonies to history. I could not have put together a more comprehensive or enjoyable tour on my own. We got a lot of bang for the buck on this 6 hour tour. I would highly recommend it.

On the plus side, we had a wonderful guide. He knew his history and was very enthusiastic and professional. A very big negative was the absolute lack of initiative on the part of the person responsible for the tour. The initial pick up spot was unavailable because for blocks around it was fenced off due to a special event. We were not notified of the issue and had no knowledge of an alternate pickup location. To top that off, there was no person at the office to answer the phone and give us a clue as to what to do next. Fortunately, one other person did know of an alternate spot, which took us a good fifteen minutes of walking to reach. Even a manager with just a small bit of common sense would have sent someone to the original pick up spot to collect us all and lead us to the place the bus was located.

We only had one day and the tour gave us a quick and stress free experience. Our three kids enjoyed not having to walk everywhere. Viator did a great job with service. I made a mistake on our date of the tour and they were able to correct it without any hassle.
