Didn't even make the tour - directions on where to meet were terrible, taxi took us to what turned out to be the wrong intersection. We ended up going to the Capitol Hill ourselves from FREE and doing our own tour and was more that happy with that. So for anyone reading this I'd recommend you save some money and do the same yourselves!
