Reviews
Reviews summarythis tour is very recommended for those travellers from NY. it is convenient that can visit a new state with very knowleageble tour guide, there is a quick stop in delaware where guest can buy some snacks and enjoy the ride to washington. the best part of this tour is when you can be able to visit the top tourist spot in just one day.
Tour was a quick way to catch a glimpse of DC from NY. The departure was timely, ride was safe and Bryan was a fantastic guide throughout. He kept us informed, entertained and comfy. I would give 6 stars if I could! The timing can be a bit tight and early, but you will live :)
This was a very intensive trip. The tour leaves New York at 6:30 AM and returns from Washington, D.C. around 3:30 PM. Each trip takes 4 hours. There will be a stop at the Biden Welcome Center for a restroom break and a snack (or quick breakfast). We spent about 15-30 minutes at each attraction, mainly taking pictures and walking around the memorial and buildings. The last stop was to visit the Aircraft and Space Museum and had a quick meal at their cafe (only sandwiches and pastries available) The guide was very pleasant and informative. Overall a good trip, visiting all the main attractions in a hassle-free day trip. Love it!
This tour is good for people who want to travel to US capital city but cannot spend more time in Washington DC. The guide was well prepared and nice, he explained a lot if you asked him about history. Recommend if you want to visit most of the attractions in Washington DC and go back to New york same day.
Since we were the only ones in the group who signed up for the Chinese tour, and we happened to have a tour guide, Benjamin, who could speak Chinese, it felt like we had personal service. The overall introduction was excellent. Although there were some initial awkward moments with Chinese grammar, he consciously adjusted as he went along, making it easy to understand. He also recommended many attractions, explained tipping etiquette, provided insights into the local history and culture, and suggested New York restaurants. He even helped us take photos. This tour is definitely a great choice for traveling with elders, highly recommended! The only drawback was that it coincided with the visit of the President of Ukraine, so the area around the White House was heavily secured. We could only see it from a distance, and it took us a while to find several spots to get even that distant view.
Everything in this one day tour is perfect. Even there is limited time but we can cover all important attractions.
We were from NY and this trip was definitely worth the purchase. It eats up an entire day with the long travel to and from DC, but seeing these monumental sites is definitely a must! worth the trip!
It was a wonderful itinerary, although quite rushed. However, that's understandable given the number of places to visit. Seeing so many sights was very fulfilling. Having a Chinese-speaking guide was excellent; the detailed historical explanations and scenic arrangements made for a fantastic trip.
Overall it was a great experience. You do spend 4.5hrs in this trip travelling just one way. Hence you get very limited time exploring the place. The lunch stop too is combined with the Museum site seeing. Hence the site seeing was a bit rushed. The tour guide Carlos was very good and did an awesome job of talking about places and its histories. No food or refreshments were served which I thought was a bummer. They did cover all places in the limited time that was available.
The tour was very efficient and our guide was very insightful and helpful. We found our way to the bus right away and got dropped off safely too.
