John's depth of knowledge was exceptional. He had a story of almost every monument and building we drove by or stopped. His explaination of everything in Arlington National Cemetery was inspiring to all of us. How he weilded that bus through all of those tight streets and traffic, we'll never know!

We had the best experience! Mr. John, our driver and guide was awesome! Because of the government shutdown, the Smithsonian museums were all closed, so he took us on a tour of downtown Washington, DC adding in a couple of unplanned stops to make up for the closures. He is such a knowledgeable person and we came away understanding more about our government’s workings. We were very impressed with our tour!

Wonderful experience. My wife and I had never been to Washington before. The sites were awesome. We visited Arlington as well as Washington and it was a memorable experience. The sites in Washington are more impressive in person than can be seen in photos. Our bus driver John was very friendly and knowledgeable about the places and history of the locations we visited. Highly recommended. Thanks John for a fun trip.

This is a nice tour of Washington D.C. but be prepared to walk long distances. John, our tour guide, was accommodating and didn't make us feel rushed.

The tour far exceeded my expectations, it was very well done! I can’t say enough about our guide and driver John. He was so knowledgeable about the landmarks and history. He was also a very safe driver. It seemed like he customized the tour for us and was very tuned in to what the group wanted to see. The trip to Arlington Cemetery was very moving. It was amazing to see the changing of the guard ceremony. We learned so much about the cemetery from John. The rest of the tour was great and I was surprised that we were able to see as much as we did in one day. I highly recommend this tour and will definitely do it again!

Tour guide, John, was very good and so was the tour. Would have preferred more time at monuments or museum and less time at Arlington. Other than that we were very pleased.
