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.!

Great small group tour!
Just our group of 5 was on the tour and the tour was excellent. Our tour guide was Jared and he shared a wealth of information. He allowed us to customize the tour to the sites and times we wanted since it was our group only and he even picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel! The vehicle was a deluxe van. We would definitely recommend him and the small group tour!

Fun night in DC!
Fun and informative! Our guide’s natural storytelling felt very much like it was Grandpa sharing the history of our nation! He was wonderful answering all the questions from the kids in our tour. The discounted price was definitely worth the value. And the night tour made it very enjoyable as it was a beautiful evening. Happy to support this woman-owned business as it was her “dream”—she came from Peru and followed her American dream!

Tour Guide Saved the Day!

Tour Guide Saved the Day!
Mr. Kareem, our tour guide literally 'saved the day' for me and my family on this tour! Our original tour guide never showed up at our 'designated pick up' spot. I called the DC Touring co., and they told me that because we were "late" (despite the fact that we were there 30 minutes early), we would be "unable to go on the tour that day." So then I called Cool Washington DC, who managed to find a replacement tour guide (Mr. Kareem) within 20 minutes. Mr. Kareem was fantastic...he took us everywhere we wanted to go. He let us stay as long as we wanted to see the site. It turned out to be a wonderful tour of Wash. DC, instead of the 'nightmare' it could have been for us. I give credit to Cool Washington DC for acting so quickly to find another tour guide...I especially give credit to Mr. Kareem, our "back up" Tour Guide for turning what could have been a 'disaster' into a day of lifetime memories for me and my family. Thank you Mr. Kareem...You are the BEST (IMHO).
