Our driver Sam was very kind and caring to all his passengers. He was patient and kind. Sandy our guide was FULL of information of our history. She was delightful and kind also. Very friendly 😁 All around great experience!

Nicholas_P

They certainly crammed a lot into three hours so some of the stops were a bit rushed; but overall this was a good experience. The additional ticket to tour Washington Memorial the following day was good, however there was no consultation as to what time that ticket would be for, so I had to adjust me plans to accommodate.
