Pershing Park - World War I Memorial
The National World War I Memorial is a national memorial commemorating the service rendered by members of the United States Armed Forces in World War I. The 2015 National Defense Authorization Act authorized the World War I Centennial Commission to build the memorial in Pershing Park, located at 14th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington, D.C. The park, which has existed since 1981, also contains the John J. Pershing General of the Armies commemorative work. In January 2016, the design commission selected the submission "The Weight of Sacrifice", by a team consisting of Joseph Weishaar, Sabin Howard, Phoebe Lickwar, and GWWO Architects, as the winning design,[1] which is expected to be completed by 2024.[2]

Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial
Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial Located to the south of the National Mall, the national memorial is set in a park-like plaza, with large columns framing a mesh tapestry depicting the site of the Normandy landings, and sculptures and bas-reliefs arrayed in the park. Architect Frank Gehry designed the memorial and Sergey Eylanbekov sculpted the bronze statues of Eisenhower in various settings. The memorial's tapestry artist was Tomas Osinski, and the inscription artist, Nicholas Waite Benson. On October 25, 1999, the United States Congress created the Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial Commission, and charged it with creating "...an appropriate permanent memorial to Dwight D. Eisenhower...to perpetuate his memory and his contributions to the United States." The preliminary design proved controversial. After several years of hearings and several design changes by Gehry, final design approvals were given in 2017, when dignitaries held a groundbreaking ceremony at the four-acre site.

The tour was listed as 4 hours, but the driver came 20 minutes late without any notification and it ended 10 minutes earlier. The tour listed as one of its step off and visit locations the Jefferson Memorial. That did not happen. The driver stated he does not stop there, and that was one of the attractions my family was excited about seeing. We were given 30 minutes to get off and visit the Lincoln Memorial including the Vietnam and Korean Memorial and 30 minutes to visit the Franklin Roosevelt and Martin Luther King Memorial. Both should have been 40 minutes --especially if you were not quick on your feet, which could have happened if tour bus was not late and arrived early. I understand this tour was an overview, but those 2 spots needed to be 40 minutes. The rest of the tour was tour was as expected. Our driver was personal, well informed, and engaging. All in all, the tour was good, but could not rate it as excellent or above average based on my comments. JPL

This tour with Zohery Tours was by far, the highlight of my week in D.C!!! I went on the daytime tour, as well as the night tour and both were amazing! The owner and tour guide, Ali has an AMAZING amount of knowledge of Washington D.C., the history of the city, where to go and what to do, and literally anything else you would ever want to know about this town! He also went WAY out of his way to accommodate his guests, by arranging alternate drop-offs, asking his guests about their preferences of what to spend the most time on, etc. He even spent almost 2 hours on his personal phone between stops, trying to help me find alternate hotel accommodations because mine were falling through at the last minute! Ali made such an impression on me, not only as a tour operator in a town where tours are a dime a dozen, but as an amazing and compassionate person! Thank you for your kindness Ali and please know that I will always consider you a friend! I will be back soon, next time with my family, and we will definitely be on your bus!
