5.00My most memorable part of the experience was learning about all the history behind the wall memorial
Great way to see DC without the traffic!

5.00Cherry Blossom Season made it even more exciting! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and funny. It was, in my opinion, a great way to see DC because it was up close and personal. Our group was small which made it even better! It is at least 2-3 miles of walking so be prepared with great walking shoes. It did take us the whole 3 hours so bring water/a snack. There are water/bathroom breaks along the way but the lines were long sometimes. You’re also walking on bumpy and uneven sidewalks at times so know what you’re comfortable with before committing. There was an accident with someone on the tour because of this, but our tour guide handled it flawlessly. He was so amazing and made the tour so much fun!
Beautiful and great guide!

5.00We had a great experience and Liam was great! We had an accident and had to end our personal one early but he was very helpful and kind. The group was great! I wish we could’ve finished the tour but it was great with what we got to do!
Memorable walk
