Dc by Night - Can’t say enough positive things- Dwayne was an amazing guide and Chris did a fabulous job getting us from site to site! A good amount of time off the bus to actually see things and take pictures- not just a drive by!! If you have an evening- give this company a go , they are excellent!

Bucket List: Night Tour - This tour offers a completely different perspective of viewing the monuments at night rather than the day. The narrator, Sally, did her homework and enlightened the group with both history and trivia on the places of interest on the itinerary. The driver, Chris, safely and skillfully navigated the bus through the heavy traffic. Who knew the Lady Liberty who sits on top of the Capitol faces east so the sun will never set on Liberty? Fascinating and interesting are 2 words that come to mind to describe this tour.

Excellent experience with tons of interesting history - We had a great experience. Dwayne, our tour guide, was a wealth of information and history, a great speaker that was easy to hear and understand with a strong interest and passion to his work, and visited many important sites around DC with time to stop and experience without spending too much time in any one place - no waiting around. The shuttle is modern and clean, and the driver was a smooth driver. Everything was well communicated beforehand too. Great experience! I went with co-workers, but I'd like to bring my family back just to do this tour with them as well.
