We were expecting a slow circle of the National Mall - we got so much more! The open-air bus ride on the 395 was definitely a surprise :D We went at dusk and saw Arlington, the Pentagon (from a distance), the Lincoln Memorial 15-minute stop, the Washington Monument, Georgetown (a highlight), and so much more. We went farther, longer, and faster than expected and LOVED it. Included earbuds give a narrated tour in several languages with "patriotic music" in the background. If you're not renting a car, but want to get a sense of the DC Metro, the Big Bus is definitely the way to go. Our first night in town and it definitely gave us "the lay of the land" that we could not get from our Uber or hotel room view. Definitely recommend! (P.S. Bring cash to tip the driver - we didn't have any on us and regret it because she definitely deserved it!)

Loved the audio until it cut off. Would love to include a little of the African American culture terms in the commentary. Got a personal historical perspective this tour guide Lena that was the absolute cherry on too!!!

Team Us 2K enjoyed a night out on this 2 hour tour of Washington DC. We thought that it was unique to have the bus tour to issue wired earbuds and have a pre-recorded tour guide pointing out the different landmarks and historical buildings. It was beautiful to see DC lit up at night. We would definitely recommend this tour.
