Very informative tour, jampacked with lots of activities and sights, a good way to visit the attractions if you don't have the luxury of time. Our tour guide Jorge was very helpful, and he did a marvelous job introducing us to the main sights. This tour was bilingual. We brought sandwiches with us, and bought our drinks in takeaway cups from the shops at the stop, so we weren't pressed for time when it came to lunch breaks or snacks. We had plenty of time to enjoy the museums instead. Our bus ran into trouble at the end of the tour, that added to another 30 minutes of being on the road, but our driver took us back to New York safely. All the passengers in the bus arrived on time at the end of each stop, so we had a very awesome day.

The tour delivered everything that was promised. The host knew what was doing, and the ride was balanced, not tiring and with enough time for pictures. The bus had charging USB ports and WiFi connection, what facilitate the time in it. Recommended for whoever is short of time in NY and still wants a taste of DC. Recommended.

Booked in advance before my trip to NYC. Met the bus in Time Square outside Mac Donald’s at 6.15 am. Greeted by friendly driver and the tour guide. Left on time. Stopped after 2 hours for a shirt comfort break. Then onto Arlington Cemetery. Very touching if somewhat short visit. Then on to Washington and all the sites one would expect. A lot of walking on a very hot day. At around 2pm we had our free time break. An hours and a half to go where you want. We parked outside a number of museums so plenty to choose from. Long trip home due to road works along the way. I would recommend this trip but remember dress appropriately for the weather and be prepared to walk a fair distance. Only slight downside was a pair of whiny Brits moaning that all the guides talk was repeated in Spanish
