Reviews
Reviews summaryI wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Washington. Our tour guide, Allan, and our driver, Carlos, shared so many impressions and important information with us all. A big thank you to both of them for the super insight into the capital city. P.S. They both have a great eye for photo spots. Greetings from the late Germans 😅🤗
Excellent experience n knowledge with our tour guide, Mr Steve, and also our skillful driver, thanks to them with beautiful photos taken n good timing for whole day. Pls join this tour when u in NYC to DC.
Wonderful tour experience. Small group so it was more personalized. Tour guide was very informative and took us around to sites with lots of fun facts. Good quick day trip to Washington DC and Arlington.
Truly enjoyed this tour with Allan! He is knowledgeable and threw in really interesting facts and fun bits about NYC, Washington D.C. and the cities we drove past during the tour—that made it all the more worth it. Itinerary was well planned and I thoroughly appreciate the punctuality too. It was a medium-sized group (only 11 of us), so it was very easy to crowd-control! Would highly suggest trying this out if you wanna explore DC’s best attractions!!!
Our tour guide Allan is awesome. He sent a greeting message at the previous night before departure. He was on-time, gave clear infomation on the meeting time/point, and most important of all, gave us comprehensive introduction to the spots. Yet, unfortunately, our bus engine was out of order on the highway, which took us almost one hour waiting time to change into a backup bus.
the trip went really well and highly recommended. allan, our tour guide is very energetic and informative. i don’t know where he gets the energy! from NY to DC, he has shared so much in the history of NY and political history of US. He makes sure everyone in the trip is comfy and well counted for. he also informs his guests on every stop and attraction so we won’t get lost or wander where we will only waste time. this tour is really recommended and very much worthwhole if your are visiting NY, take this side trip to DC and make the most out of it. i just hope we had more time.
Our tour guide for the day was called Steve, and he could speak English and Spanish. The tour guide is very attentive and will remind you of the meeting time and place, as well as some precautions the day before. The drive from New York to Washington takes about 4 hours. We stopped at a rest stop on both the outbound and return journeys to buy food and use the restroom. The tour guide briefly introduced the history of each attraction, and I felt that the time we spent on taking photos was sufficient. I highly recommend friends who are traveling to New York to purchase this package and take a one-day trip to Washington, which is well worth it!
well organized tour. our guide Allan was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and accommodating. The itinerary was well-planned and the attractions exceeded expectations
It's a very well arranged trip. Love all the spots that we visited. Allan, the tour guide, is also a great storyteller. I learned and enjoyed the trip!
