Well worth the time and $ - Our tour guide was experienced and engaging. The stories were super interesting and we could tell he liked working with us. We went somewhere else after the tour on his recommendation and loved it.

Super fun way to see a lot of stuff and learn some interesting “off the beaten path” history - This was a really fun tour. Derek our tour guide did a great job. He was very funny and knew all kinds of interesting things and kept us laughing. It was cool to see Ford’s theater, the Watergate, the White Houseand the Kennedy center and the FBI and the Supreme Court and the capitol all in one evening. Learned a lot of some of the more scandalous history and some true crime. It would have taken us ages to go to all these places on our own and without the interesting commentary and facts. A fun way to do this- we enjoyed it. Also really really appreciated the free bottled water!

A great tour, but a few things you should know first. - This is a great evening tour where you still see the main DC sights, but also learn some juicy stories from history. Two caveats - the tour requires lots of walking, even though it is a bus tour. I enjoyed the walking, but it could prove difficult for those with mobility concerns. Also, the seats on the bus were very tight. Again, you will not spend much time on the actual bus, but it could be difficult for super tall people. Getting in and out of the bus was tricky because of the tightness, so best not to bring large bags or purses on this tour.

Interesting Tour - Terri and Terrell were very good. She was very knowledgeable, and gave good information. We were very crowded on the van and could not see all the things she pointed out.

Not much crime and not... - Not much crime and not much scandal . More sights we visited that we had already seen. Kind of a waste but tour guide was knowledgeable.
