My niece and I enjoyed this DC in a day tour. We had Mr Calvin as our tour driver and Kris as our tour guide. Both were great at their jobs. This is a great tour to get in all the top sites in a day. I highly recommend. We came at the end of May so we got to do the cruise ride out on the Potomac River. Great sightseeing. Kris kept us on time throughout the day without feeling like we were rushed. We also enjoyed lunchtime at the Georgetown waterfront. Overall great tour!

Boat ride was excellent. Staff was very good and accommodating. However, they didn't have any bottled water until the last half hour. The weather was warm and there was lots of walking. We were able to buy water and other drinks at few stops.

Fantastic tour. Natiana and Maggie were incredible. Natiana was full of knowledge, history, character and a joyful, bubbling personality. Of all the tours we have taken in our vacations in the world, she ranks in the top 2. We would take any tour with her as our guide. We only had two days in DC and we feel like we got to see most of it. Definitely worth the money.

The best things i liked about the tour was the tour guide Paul, He has a vast knowledge of American history and has a good grasp of tour. His sense of humour was great. The glass door bus was a nice experience. Cold water was available at the bus which is appreciated.
