    Very informative and spoke at a good volume for all to hear. It was scheduled for 3 hours but lasted closer to 3.5… felt closer to 2 hours it went so fast.

    A must do for visiting Washington DC! Although I am not sure if we enjoyed the tour or our awesome tour guide, James, better! LOL! The tour starts at the Supreme Court Building then goes directly inside Capital Hill and into a tunnel that ends up at the Library of Congress. The tour is a total of ninety minutes but once the tour ended we continued exploring both the Capital as well as the Library. James, who is a native of DC, had so much knowledge, fun facts and hysterical jokes! He really made the tour! Thank you James!

    We lived in DC years ago and were very familiar with the Capitol and LOC, but after our recent move back we needed a refresher. Skye's presentation was knowledgeable and responsive. We'd love another tour with her at some point.
