Great guide and experience - Fabulous tour of the monuments. Victor was knowledgeable, engaging and personable. We highly recommend this tour company and visiting these sites at night!

Magic in DC at Night - We arrived at the starting point a few minutes after 7PM due to heavy traffic. We were able to park right in front of the National Air and Space Museum, so that was convenient, although I had parked on the opposite side of the building from where Victor was waiting. He called my cell, and he came around the building to pick us up so that we did not waste any more time. What was supposed to be a semi-private tour turned out to be a PRIVATE TOUR! What a bonus! Victor was great!
I have been to the DC area many times, and I have never taken the opportunity to do a monument tour at night, and this tour did NOT disappoint! Victor knew his stuff, and seeing the monuments lit at night was magical, even in the rain.
I highly recommend Victor 100%!

Comfortable & Informative Tour of DC - It was a great tour and even though we have been to DC several times, we still learned some new historical information on the many monuments that we visited. It is important to know that this is a driving tour and no entry tickets are included - which was great with us. It was not a Nighttime tour, because the Sun had not set when we were on our tour. That was a little disappointing but we still enjoyed the tour.
I would like to compliment our tour operator, Michael. He was polite, informative and knew his way around the city. He made the tour enjoyable.
