Great Tour with Sam!

5.00Sam was an amazing tour guide. He did a really wonderful job of telling us details that we didn’t expect. He was charming and witty and knowledgeable. We are so thankful that we did the open air golf cart tour, which allowed a much better view of the city than a tour bus.
Very fun and engaging!

5.00This was a perfect solution for solo traveler on a hot day. The monuments which I have seen before were a whole different experience at night with the lighting. The guide from intrepid gave a very engaging commentary, and the electric car was quiet, agile, and comfortable.
Dr Cook’s night school!

5.00Booked this during our stay in Washington DC. Overall we had a fab time. Our driver Amanda I think was informative, knowledgeable and allowed us to take time at each stop location to take photos. The electric vehicles were clean and a nice way to travel. The only point to be aware of is that on the back of each seat there are exposed nuts that stick out a little. Please be careful if like me you’re wearing shorts as you can scrape your knees across them when getting in and out of the cart.
Great tri0
