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 were a bit unlucky with the weather; it rained the whole time. Despite this, our guide expertly led us to the memorials on the National Mall. By the end, we were soaking wet but also very satisfied.

Best Tour of D.C. / highly recommended!
The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area, history to current. The bus was very comfortable, not crowded. I’ve been to D.C. before and learned so much on this tour that I didn’t know prior to the tour. I highly recommend this tour! This is the only tour that we are considering going on again next time we are in D.C.

This is a really great tour. The food is phenomenal and I was actually surprised how big the portions were. All of the venues are places I would absolutely try again. Our guide, Wayne, was great. He had so much history (and he even had photos to accompany the stories) that it really made the tour fun.
