Unique and Funny Tour, Peter B. San Diego - We did the Comedy Walks DC tour last month with a few friends and had an absolute blast! Our guide, Richard Siegel, kicked things off by singing to us right on the sidewalk--which set the perfect tone for a fun, hilarious, and totally unique experience. As we walked through the city, he shared great stories about both famous and lesser-known landmarks, all while cracking jokes and doing spot-on impressions. We were laughing the entire time. Highly recommend for anyone visiting DC who wants a tour with a twist!

First Rate-- - Wow - What a unique & great tour.. I've been to DC many times, seen all the monuments - but Richard put a whole new spin on the experience. He was fun & engaging & really funny. Ask him to do his Bernie Sanders impression. In fact all his impressions were spot on. If you want to learn something, laugh and enjoy yourself with a real professional - this is the tour for you!!!

Fun afternoon! - I wasn't sure what to expect, but Richard quickly set the pace for a fun afternoon walk. I was expecting jokes, and there were several. What I didn't expect was impressions. Richard did impressions of Nixon, Carter, and Reagan at suitable stops on the route. He also added in a couple of parody songs. All in all It was an enjoyable walk which passed quickly due to Richard’s quirky but engaging humor.

Comedy Walks - Highlight of my trip to DC! Richard was our guide and did a great job of combining historical sights and making us laugh. As we toured the monuments he was very funny in his comments. I highly recommend the Comedy Walks DC with Richard!

Washington Comedy walking tour is great and that’s no joke! - The most entertaining way to see the sights in our nation’s capitol. This was the first time I had seen the sculpture of Albert Einstein and it is a very unique piece of art. You have to speak to it and it will “speak” to you. No audio recording.

Take The Tour!! - Definitely worth the money! Learned many new juicy tidbits about the DC Area from a very talented young man, Tim. Walked and saw very cool buildings in this beautiful city. Take the Tour!!

Not What We Were Expecting - I hate to be negative but the tour was disappointing. Richard's impersonations were good, but his jokes, song parodies and comments were not historical or funny. They had more to do with his own experiences than with the monuments and buildings. For ex, at the WWII Memorial, he compared his past marriage to WWII. I would have asked for our money back, but I felt too bad for him to do so. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this .

Not the combination of comedy and history we were expecting - This was not at all what we expected. Definitely not worth the $50 we paid as a couple. Our guide said he was a singer and a stand up comic, but he can't sing, we didn't find his attempts at jokes funny, and we didn't get much history at the various stops along the way. Further, his jokes assumed that his audience shared his personal like or dislike for various political figures. Not a good idea with an audience from varied backgrounds and various parts if the country. Worse, head kept asking us whether we were having fun...not something we would share on the spot. Best part of the day was discovering an exhibit at The Renwick, which we enjoyed immensely after we left the "comedy" tour.

Worst Comedy tour ever!! Do no waste your money on Richard! - Total waste of money and time! He (Richard) had no clue what he was talking about and basically used the tour to play and promote songs he wrote. It was SO bad we dropped off the tour after 45 minutes (a refund would be appropriate)!

Unbelievably cringy - just avoid - Horrid and awkward... My teens would say 'cringe'... There were only the two of us for the 'tour' (I had assumed it would be cancelled if enough didn't sign-up), so awkward anyway. Our guide/comic more closely resembled a hobo than anyone to trust in. The walk (which we good-naturedly attempted to continue with) was full of terrible moments of awkwardness, singing of songs that were so tasteless that passerby were looking at us strangely, and no actual laughs or guidance were had.
