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.

We had a wonderful experience on our Smithsonian museum tour! Our guide, Meg, was excellent. She was extremely knowledgeable and thorough when explaining the history, and she always took the time to stop and answer any questions we had.Meg made the tour interesting, informative, and enjoyable from beginning to end. It was a great experience, and I would highly recommend this tour—and Meg as a guide—to anyone visiting Washington, D.C.!

George was great! It was our group of two, and 2 other groups (another group of 2 and a group of 5). George was an excellent guide, had abundant knowledge on the monuments and buildings of DC, and even provided water. I'd highly recommend booking a tour through him!

Great way to explore Georgetown
What a great tour and so glad we booked it. Our guide, Carson, walked us round the Georgetown area giving us lots of historical facts, as well as four delicious food choices. We were staying in Washington for four days and we would not have explored this area if it hadn't been for this tour. It really was a nice mix of food and exploring the neighbourhood.
