Live narration, multiple stops, very friendly drivers. One good thing to know is if you opt for the option to go to Arlington Cemetery you will transfer to a blue trolley. This was not told to us. Otherwise everything was great.

No one at welcome Center to tell us what to do. Caused delay. Had to wait for tram to Arlington. NP people at park didn’t get us to Changing of the Guard in time to get a seat only standing, couldn’t see it, they could have gotten us there. NP people couldn’t find driver to bring us back to Lincoln memorial, Delay. therefore no time to see Lincoln memorial, etc. Don’t recommend doing Arlington . Not worth the time involved if trying to see monuments. Stops good on Mall side.

The narrators are great. You need more than 1 day to fully explore all the sites and explore the museums.
