We have used big bus in many cities now and they never fail to impress. So much easier to see the sites and just take in the city without any stress. Excellent value for money and we had the night tour as well . Shout out to Gale our driver for the night tour x best driver by far . Thank you big bus .

Set the bad review to alert anyone that start you fun by parking ant Arlington Cemetery Parking. Eventually you will be let stranded by Big Bus Tours because it WILL COMPLETELY SKIP THE STOP at Arlington Cemetery with the allegation that the place is already closed for visitor for the day. You won’t have any options to reach you car parked there but extra cost for taxi or walk to the parking place before 6:00 PM when the parking lot gates closes. It would be 1.6miles walk.

Roving02063046505, thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback about your experience with us. The Gates at Arlington Cemetery close at 5:00pm daily. Because of this, our last bus is advertised as 4:30pm to enter from Arlington Cemetery. This time schedule aligns with what is advertised on our website. Please reach out to us at your earliest convenience so we may further assist you in working towards a resolution at [email protected]
