We had a fabulous tour with Tyrone! Much better than trying to do it ourselves and our driver Chris was fantastic too. It rained and we didn’t have an umbrella, ponchos were provided and GREATLY appreciated. Super educational and fun day in D.C.!

Trip was great, nice balance between being driven around, walking and the boat ride. We hit all the best sites. Tyrone our guide was engaging, knowledgeable and fun. A nice touch was they had a cooler of water bottles to share, which on a hot day was needed. My only complaint was that 45 minutes for lunch was a bit too tight. 1 hour would have been perfect. I plan to take this trip again when more company comes to visit.

Thank you for taking the day tour which is an extended way to tour all the top monuments of DC and some. As you mentioned, it's a balance of bus touring, walking at stops to get close and take pictures. And you get a boat ride for a new perspective. Zuma
