I had Wayne and my guide and he was delightful. Very knowledgeable and full of additional info not necessarily related to the tour itself, but places we happened by along the way. He made it very fun and I had a great time. There is a fair amount of walking so make sure you're up on your caridio, but other than that it was a very fun tour. If ever I'm in the area again, I'd love to do another one of Wayne's tours.

DC Tour with Nick
We really enjoyed our tour with Nick! He was very knowledgeable about all the places we visited and also had some great jokes. Our bus driver was great at navigating all the streets of DC and was also very entertaining. The boat cruise was ok but would have rather went to other places. This is the way to see the important sites and not have to worry about finding parking or driving in DC traffic.

Book this tour and really experience the monuments the way they were intended
Sally and Godfrey were the best tour guide/bus driver combo I've had in ages—I have done tours across many continents and been visiting DC since I was a little kid, and this tour ranks at the top of my list. I wanted to take my daughter and my au pair on an amazing monuments tour and they did not disappoint. They were also so accommodating to my little girl and made all kinds of allowances for people with physical limitations. Literally held our hands and told us exactly what to do. Plenty of time at each stop. Best DC pictures I've had in ages! The rain didn't stop us even of ra minute!

Jason, our tour guide was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and I learned some things from him. He was also funny, friendly and kind. We enjoyed it and really liked him but I would not do this true again. It was good but I did think it was a little lacking in the second half as far as what you get to see. Jill had a good time.

Fascinating, thorough story of the Lincoln assassination. Ford’s Theatre and its small museum were almost secondary to the story our excellent guide provided. But seeing the places involved was amazing. Highly recommend.
