What To Expect
U.S. Capitol
The Capitol Building centers a 450-acre Capitol Campus that includes House and Senate office buildings, the U.S. Botanic Garden, the Library of Congress, and the Supreme Court. Immediately surrounding the Capitol are 59 acres of beautifully kept grounds, landscaped originally in 1892 by Frederick Law Olmsted, who also planned New York City’s Central Park. Stroll these winding paths and admire the flower plantings and memorial trees. Before you get too close to the Capitol, stand back to take a look at the “Statue of Freedom,” the 19-foot-tall bronze female figure crowning the Capitol’s dome.
White House
The White House is the official residence and principal workplace of the President of the United States. Located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington, D.C., the house was designed by Irish-born James Hoban, and built between 1792 and 1800 of white-painted Aquia sandstone in the Neoclassical style. It has been the residence of every U.S. president since John Adams. When Thomas Jefferson moved into the house in 1801, he (with architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe) expanded the building outward, creating two colonnades that were meant to conceal stables and storage.

5.00My wife and I had one more day in DC after visiting some of our usual favorite museums etc. We booked the Viator tour for an overview of the favorite landmarks. The bus was a little late but it took us to Captial, White House, FDR memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Korea memorial, MLK memorial as promised. The driver told us about sites as we passed them. We got our money's worth. Nice trip!

1.00Very hard to understand the guide. Recited facts, very quickly almost as if reading from an encyclopedia. I know he wasn't reading and his memory was impressive but it was very dry and hard to follow. Slower speech and telling stories vs. reciting facts would have been much more pleasurable. Also found it inappropriate when the guide called and yelled at a couple that were late returning to the bus
Great tour of DC!

5.00Perfect trip! A tour that was not too short or too long, enough to see the top highlights in terms of landmarks, without burnout. The guide was funny, knowledgeable and friendly. He was very interactive and created synergy with the entire tour group.
