This tour was the final and best part of our long weekend in Washington D.C. The monuments themselves were stand-outs, particularly at night, but it was our tour guide Sally who really made the evening spectacular! My son and I have traveled extensively and been on numerous tours, so we know that it's the knowledge, background, and enthusiasm of the tour guide that sets the experience apart. Sally was passionate about the history of the monuments, the D.C. area and was able to draw in the interests and experiences of the tour participants, making it a special evening for us all. Her historic narratives were interesting and exceptional. We came away with outstanding insights on the monuments and respect for the area. Washington D.C. could have no better ambassador. We lucked out with Sally and our driver. Great tour, outstanding guides.... and an exceptional experience! Bravo!. Can we pack this woman up and take her on all our trips?

Perfect trip….not too long not too short. Seeing the monuments at night while learning about the history was amazing. The monuments were magnificent when lit up, and reflections on the water were breathtaking. I highly recommend this tour if you’re pressed for time but want to see and learn about this part of our history. Well done!
