What was detailed in the summary as for the places that one would visit was a complete lie. This 8hr tour did not take us to the Arlington Cemetery, nor Mount Vernon nor Old Town Alexandria. It only took us to the Washington and WWII memorial, The museum of natural history for like 2 hours, the capital, the White House and then after begging the driver took us to the Lincoln monument. What a waste of time and energy. This could have been done on your own.

It was very difficult to understand our guide; at times it seemed he was just mumbling to himself. I was concerned about this because my father is hard of hearing, and we did pay a pretty penny for this trip. I was under the impression that all the monuments that we visited would be alloted a 45 minute visit. We spent 3 hours at Mt. Vernon, which could have been seen in less than 2 hours. We drove around town as the guide told us house prices, we ate lunch at a very dirty buffet. At Arlington Cemetery, we had to leave halfway through the changing of the guard because we were warned that we would be left behind if we stayed any longer. Finally, when we arrived at the Vietnam Memorial, the reason for the ENTIRE trip, we were alloted 40 minutes. That is a 4 mile circuit of things to see with 40 minutes to do so. Finally, at the end of our trip, after our 4 mile sprint around the Lincoln Memorial, my boyfriend explained to our guide how frustrated he was that we did not have more time at one of the THE most important stops of the entire tour.
