If you’re short on time in NYC but still want to visit Washington, D.C. without any hassle, this is the perfect short trip to the National Mall. The tour guide is very knowledgeable, and the driver is quite nice. They offer services in both English and Spanish. It’s a well-organized tour at a great price.

This day trip was amazing, mostly because of our tour guide Steve who was a perfect storyteller. We learned more from him than in school :) He shared political, economical and historical facts, which was very useful since we are coming from Europe. Definitely recommend it, especially if Steve will be your tour guide :)
