I absolutely loved it! I was Travelling solo and this was a great day exploring Washington DC. My guide Sharon was amazing and really knowledgeable. I learnt a lot about American history in one day than I have learnt in the last 40 years! The tour was well organised and Sharon gave us great tips through the day as well. Great and very friendly driver as well. Highly recommend this tour as it is worth every penny you spend 👌

My partner and I had a really good time on this tour. Our tour guide Sharon was very helpful and gave us loads of background information and history. Our driver Harvey was very friendly. We really enjoyed all the locations and monuments we were brought to. The only thing we would’ve liked differently is more time exploring those locations, although we are aware we’re stuck for time as it’s already such a long day. I’d recommend people to do their 2 day tour to make the most of it!

I love every bits of this trip! Sharon, Michael and Herbi are the best team you would ever wish for! Very patient, polite, Sharon is extremely knowledgeable of the history, brilliant lady. They were organized, well coordinated, they work as a team! They communicated wel, every topic, every location. Sharon left no crumbs! She nailed it. Amazing trip over all!

I tour guide is not so accommodating he will never wait for other guest just to hear his explanation on the tourist spot we are. I understand that my Mom is PWD but at least show some concern. I will not book this tour again. Always in a hurry.. for me this tour is a waste of money just traveling the whole time. the bus doesn’t have folding table to put your food/things or a hook or cup holder for the guest to have some comfort. the driver drive safely

Washington for the first time It was fun to come to a place that I could only see on TV and movies until now. The tour conductor's explanation and guidance were excellent and made the trip even more enjoyable.

Very much entertained and Okai does know the topic very well. Recommended to those who would like to visit the nation’s capital. Lucky to be able to have a selfie in front of the white house

Okai the tour guide was very informative about everything all the way, on the bus journey and all of the different place's we visited on the tour, only disappointment I had was the visit to Arlington cemetery we saw JFK's grave but I like the history of space and would of liked to have seen the memorials regarding NASA
