The sights were great. Too long in bus and found the guide rushed us quite a bit and was very aggresive and rude if people were back a couple of minutes late. Sometimes it was hard to go to toilet and get something to eat so found it unacceptable to be belitted for this if didn't get back on time as it was up to others how quickly we could go in and out. Was at a stage people would rush around as didn't want to be told off. But fortunately the sights of Washington still made it a enjoyable day.
I really enjoyed this day. It was a long one but filled with so much variety and all so interesting it was absolutely worthwhile. It is a great way to see the main highlights of Washington in a short space of time. The tour guide was humorous and knowledgeable and more than willing to answer any questions I had. I would recommend this trip.
Worst guide we have ever had - absolutely no group awareness (headed off into the distance when only half the people were off the bus), brushed off questions, did not give clear instructions as to where and when to meet up. This was a pity as the day trip includes some great sites. However, from our point of view, could have done without the time spent in Madame Tausauds and the cheap souvenir shop in order to have more time at the Space Museum.
