Enjoyable tour. Bus was comfortable and the tour guides were very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. Hotel in Washington is decent, but you're there so briefly so its just a bed you need. Only downside was not seeing the holocaust museum, but hey you can't do everything I suppose.
We had a bad start with our van breaking down and had an unplanned stop at a diner there was no offer to even pay for a coffee. This put us behind and time tight for the rest of the trip. There was very little commentary from the 2 guides who seemed to be more interest in talking to each other.
This was the worse tour we did whilst in the States.
Cons- delay having to make a stop to pick up more passengers in NJ.
The 4 different languages, and when non-english speaking passengers continuing talking and disrupting us english speaking guest.
The 2 tour guides nearly coming to blues-fighting between themselves.
Some of day 1 attractions were swapped with day 2 attractions.
Not enough time at Air and Space Museum
We didnt get to see the changing of the guards at Changing of the Guards ceremony at the Arlington Cemetery.
Pros- at least our english speaking guide was the better of the 2.
Hotel was better than expected.
I suppose if you have little or no time, then this is the only tour that caters for these sights.
