5.00Jeff gave us an amazing tour! He had so much knowledge about each monument and took his time to share interesting details. He was great about answering our questions and was eager to help us get the best pictures! We will book again with him when we come back!

5.00Very knowledgeable and patience, did not rush through things and answered any questions. We really enjoyed. It was just 3 of us with Jeff so felt very personal tour.
One of the best tours we have been on!

5.00My husband and I booked this and ended up having Jeff as our private tour guide for the evening. He reached out to us ahead of time to warn us what we would need to be prepared for and where to meet him. Jeff took us from monument to monument and was extremely knowledgeable about everything. He even told us little known facts to look for in each one which was super cool. Visiting the monuments through this tour made them 100x more meaningful. There is so much symbolism that is missed just by looking at them by yourself. Jeff was very pleasant, made sure we had water and bathroom breaks, and overall gave us an evening to remember. He even told us a little known secret about the old post office building that we ended up taking advantage of on our trip and was truly amazing. I would recommend this tour and Jeff to everyone who wants to get a meaningful visit to the memorials.

5.00Jeff was a great tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about all the monuments we visited and did a great job answering whatever other random questions we had even if not included on the tour. It was really lovely seeing all the monuments at night!

5.00First time doing night tours, never thought it be that fun, avoided morning crowds, had plenty of time at each attraction, DC looks so much different at night. Glad we had the tour with Jeff

5.00Jeff was outstanding, I wish I could 6 out of 5 stars. Jeff kept my family informed the entire time and let us explore when we were at the monuments. Additionally, he gave us amazing tidbits you can’t find on Wikipedia like many other guides.
