Excellent tour guide gave us so much DC historical content during the entire tour. A great way to see the monuments beautifully lit up at night. Highly recommend the glass top tour, smaller group.

This is by far a must for anyone visiting DC, especially if it’s the first time you visit. I recommend making this one of your first nights for it was very informative and helps you get a lay of the land. If you can, go with Terri and Brian for they are honestly the best. They were both very helpful, knowledgeable, and took care of us. Also, if you’re lucky (and you get on the bus when you need to), you may even get a surprise! They also gave great recommendations for the rest of our trip. All in all, 10/10 recommend!

The time flew by as we drove between the major stops on the National Mall. Mr Map was an Encyclopedia of historical and architectural knowledge. Felt like we were out of town guests he was proud to show off his home town. He pointed out some amazing things to see at each stop
