Absolutely Amazing DC Tour — Highly Recommend! - We had an absolutely amazing day touring Washington DC, and our guide Christopher truly made the experience unforgettable. From start to finish, he was incredibly knowledgeable — not just sharing the key historical facts, but also so many fascinating extra details that brought each site to life. His storytelling made the tour both informative and genuinely fun.
As first-time visitors from Australia, we couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to Washington DC. He made everything easy to understand, engaging, and memorable, and his passion for the city really shone through. We learned so much while also having a great time — the day flew by.
If you’re looking for a tour guide who is professional, friendly, entertaining, and exceptionally knowledgeable, look no further. This tour was a highlight of our trip, and we would recommend him without hesitation to anyone visiting DC. Thank you for such a fantastic experience!

One of the most iconic places in the United States where our heroes are honored. - This is a sacred place, so we'll have the opportunity to pay special respect to our heroes. We can see the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, that of President John F. Kennedy and his family and the more than 400,000 graves of military veterans and their families. This is the largest military cemetery in the country.

Viator and Christopher gave us a D.C tour to remember! - Christopher was an EXCELLENT guide on our tour around D.C. He was not only very knowledgeable but also went out of his way to accommodate our requests. He was prompt, cordial and easy to talk to on all aspects of our tour. All four us highly recommend Christopher for an awesome D.C. tour!

Do this tour - We took this tour during our 4 days in DC. We took our two kids (6 and 8) and rode around with Nick. I highly recommend this tour if you are trying to hit as many spots as possible with a short amount of time. We got to all the major monuments and Nick had so many facts/knowledge about every thing we went to. He knew all the buildings and back stories of everything. I'm not exaggerating! This guy knew his history and made it fun and easy to understand for the kids. It was just us in the SUV so we did not have to deal with annoying people in a tour and Nick knew all the backstreets, shortcuts, and parking spots to get in-and-out avoiding the lines and traffic. This tour is worth the money and the customer service we recieved from Nick and Chris (owner) were above and beyond.

Excellent Customer Service - We were so thrilled to be visiting our Nation's Capitol and decided on a private tour to see the sights. Christian of Perfect Private Tour is awesome. He's personable, easy going and a great guide. He took us to several points of interest and had lunch at a local spot near the river. If you think you know your American history, try to stump Christian on anything-you won't be able to. My husband jokingly asked if he was going to get a college credit for all the knowledge he gained. Our only regret was we weren't able to go to Arlington Cemetery due to a bomb threat! When we return to DC, we'll be contacting Christian again. EXCELLENT company!! Thank you Christian for giving us an outstanding experience.
