Unfortunately because it took so long for the buses to get to each stop, we had to mostly walk to see each spot. Only were able to ride the bus for one stop. From the advertising it appeared the busses would come by each stop frequently. For our first ride we had to wait 39 minutes for a bus to arrive. After that we walked

The hop on and off feature was fabulous! We did the entire circle we the first day to get the full trip in mind, and selected stops the 2nd day. Only bad thing was the boat tour. Complete waste of 2:45 hours. Boring and loud...AND we found out the night before that it was only a 1 way ticket with the package adding another $40 to our trip (would've been $75 if we had to purchase the trip back once in Gorgeto we n). Scam, IMO. In hindsight, we could've done another museum. We also found out on day 2 that we needed printed tickets from the station kiosk to be on the bus a boat. We used our app tickets on day 1 with no issue then were told "no" on day2. Overall, the bus tour was fabulous and well worth avoiding the hassle of driving and parking.

Thank you again for taking the time to let us know how we did. The Potomac Water taxi is a free add on that we have given to our guest who choose the 2 day package. This gives guest the opportunity to explore Georgetown at their own leisure. We sincerely thank you for the positive review and look forward to seeing you again soon!
