The tour was very pour. the tour leader got mixed up with the driver (leaders fault, not driver) and we wasted 30 minutes waiting. She kept telling people not to go ahead of her but she was not leading in a very good manner. I rate this tour as pour overall.

I had taken this same night tour a couple of years ago, and it was the highlight of our visit to Washington, so I was really looking forward to taking my friends who were visiting with my husband and me on the tour. Boy were we disappointed. The entire thing seemed totally disorganized, unlike the first time. There wert more people on the tour than there were buses to take them, so we had to wait for a very long time to get on a bus. The fact that it was freezing cold didn't improve our mood. When we finally go onboard, we didn't have a guide with us. They had one guide for two large bus loads of people, so we didn't get any of the information about the buildings and monuments we were passing. Our guide told us that this was the first tour he had done in four years, and that seemed apparent, as I knew more about the places we were seeing than he did. Several of his facts were incorrect and his "DC" accent was so thick that no one in our group could understand half of what he was saying. I heard one tour member who wasn't from the US say, "I speak English better that this American does,: and this was so true. I will never again book a tour with this operator. If you choose to do so, I hope your experience is more like our first than our last one.

Our guide, Rob, was excellent. He was very knowldgeable of the city, gave an excellent presentation, and made a way to reach out to us when we were in a very large group. Will recommend to anyone that I know will be in the D.C. area.

Very, very beautiful! The tour began on a very disorganized note, but the monuments made it worth while.

perfect, wonderful, more than we expected

Review by: Don W	April 2012
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the DC area by night. Our tour guide and driver were well-versed and fun to be with even as the temperatures dropped and the wind picked up. It was a memorable experience for us. Thanks for a wonderful evening!

Review by: Christopher B	April 2012
Great outing. Even if you have seen the monuments before, seeing then at night itsa whole new experience. Bring a tripod if you plan on talking pictures.

Review by: Greg A	March 2012
This is a great way to see most of the DC highlights in a short amount of time, but there's still quite a bit of walking involved. The tour started 30 minutes late and ended 30 minutes late; the tour guide was interesting but not too concerned about not staying on schedule. Be aware the bus may move locations during stops at monuments, which caused some confusion to customers who did not want to get off at each stop. The city is lovely at night!

Review by: Zig	March 2012
Tour was quite good - a mix up with buses made for a late start but the staff made sure that everyone got the most out of the tour.

Review by: Ernest P	March 2012
We really enjoyed the tour! Our guide, Leory, knew so much history and information, yet kept it fun and interesting for both my 19 yr old and my 12 yr old. It was well co-ordinated, fun and we've already given several of our friends the info for their upcoming trips to DC.

Review by: Teresa S	March 2012
We had a wonderful time on the trip. Chris, our tour guide, was a hit with everyone on the bus. Even our bus driver was super and became our friend. This was our first time to DC and the monuments and it was very informative and fun! Thank you.

This was a great experience. Our tour guide was especially interesting. We loved it!

Review by: Maria L	March 2012
A good way to see most of DC memorials. A little heavy on war themes for my taste, but that's what's there to see.

Review by: Chris C	March 2012
Excellent... Would recommend it to anyone travelling to DC

Review by: Jeffrey H	March 2012
The trip was really good. With the guide getting on and off with us at each stage and really knowing what he was talking about made it a great listen.

Review by: Debra D	March 2012
The guide seemed a bit forgetful at times. I felt we were being treated like 3rd graders at times.

Review by: James V	March 2012
Had a great time !!! Trip was excellent - guide was very good. DC is beautiful at night. Only issue was hoping to see more !!! Enjoyed the walking portions of the tour. Would definitely recommend this tour to others when planning to visit DC area.

Review by: Katherine M	March 2012
Because of day meetings while in Washington DC, the only way to see the area was the night tour. It was a great way to see the area.

Review by: Neanie	January 2012
This was a really great tour. We saw some amazing sights at night. Washington is such a beautiful city. I would def do this tour again and recommend it to everyone. Cheers Janeane

Review by: Donald D	January 2012
Wonderful Tour! Diedre was a marvelous tour guide, and although the bus was full, we felt very comfortable and relaxed with Alonzo driving. a marvelous experience for our first views of Washington, D.C.

Review by: keith k	January 2012
False advertisement is all I can say. We chose the tour because it said it was going to stop at the Jefferson Memorial. It did not! We were at MLK and the guide pointed out the Jefferson memorial and said we were viewing it from here. This memorial is difficult to reach without a vehicle. The website needs to be changed. I would not recommend this tour.

Review by: Yvonne C	January 2012
Trip not as satisfying as hoped for as it rained that night and no one could stay out of the transport very long. Realize it's not your fault but didn't get as much out of the tour as hoped for.

Review by: Steven G	December 2011
Very nice. Great tour guide - informative and kept your attention

Review by: Jennifer P	December 2011
A great way to see the city's high;ights, safely at night. Good commetary. - not too much and not too little. Great for all photo opportunities.

Review by: Charles N	December 2011
Great tour! Chris (hey driver) was the best you could get. Mary the guide was friendly ,entertaining,and full of knowledge of all the sights.Job well done

Review by: Paula H	December 2011
Excellent tour and itinery but the organisation was lacking. The tour started a little late and there were more people than space on the bus. However the tour guide was interesting and very informative.

Review by: Jana M	December 2011
Everything about the tour was excellent; starting with our fabulous tour guide who was interesting and full of all sorts of great "insider" information. The monuments are beautiful at night - although we saw a lot in the 3 hours, the time we were able to spend at each site was adequate. I'd definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a great way to spend an evening in DC!

See this....worth it....

Review by: Terry D, United States of America	June 2010
Our tour guide, Nick, was awesome. He was knowledgeable. I took my eighth grade students and parents with me and they loved it.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	June 2010
What a fun night!! Highly recommended, especially if you're in a large group. Remember to pack your own snacksrefreshments, though, because these are not available on board and there is limited time to buy them at the individual stops.

Review by: Lynn T, United States of America	June 2010
The trip was one of the best tours I have been on.

Review by: Steve H, United States of America	June 2010
We took a Onboard Washington DC night tour. The bus was clean and on time The tour was well planed, and our guide was a gem. This 3 hour tour covers most of the DC Monuments at night. This is not a drive by, you stop and visit the monuments with your guide. There is time for photos, and questions. Seeing the Linclon Memorial at night is something you will always remember. II highly recommend this tour.

Review by: Roberta C, United States of America	June 2010
Even though I live in the area I accompanied out-of-state guests on the tour. It was beautiful to see D.C. in the evening and then at night when the lights came on. The guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. Well worth the time and expense.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	June 2010
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and we had enough time to get great pictures of everything. We took a day time on off tour 2 days later with night included which was a total disaster.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	May 2010
Wow... what a great tour! Thank you.......

Review by: Dolores W, United States of America	May 2010
Nick made the entire tour really enjoyable. I only wish we had done the tour the first night we were in D. C. instead of the last night. That way we could have included one of his recommendations while we still had the time. But that means we will have to go back to D.C. one day.

Review by: William E, United States of America	April 2010
The driver and guide were excellent.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	April 2010
Great tour guide, plenty of time to walk around on our own but not have to deal with the hassles of getting from one spot to the next. Night time lights were beautiful and plenty of photo opportunities. Even the teenagers enjoyed!

Review by: John L, United States of America	April 2010
The tour and the guide were fantastic. Worth the money. However, the check in procedure was a pain and there was confusion at the pick up site.

Review by: Deborah B, United States of America	April 2010
This trip was worth every penny - absolutely fantastic. Our guide - Alex, it think - was incredibly knowledgeable and full of DC trivia. It delivered everything as promised.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	April 2010
An enjoyable evening tour. Got to see more than we would have on our own.

Review by: chris p, United States of America	February 2010
Excellent tours despite the weather conditions

Review by: Lee B, United States of America	January 2010
This tour was the highlight of my family's trip which is saying something given our ages ranged from 22 to 65! Our guide was great and his enthusiasm throughout the tour was amazing! The driver was also especially courteous. The monuments and memorials are breathtaking at night. Would recommend this tour to all!

Excellent tour only spoiled by the rain!!! Still fantastic guide and great fun!

Review by: Terri R, United States of America	November 2009
Absolutely wonderful! Our guide was excellent, very knowledgable and expressed herself quite well.

Review by: Cordell H, United States of America	November 2009
The tour was fantastic. We ended up starting about an hour late because of transfering coaches but once the tour started, it was great. Our guide was great. He knew all kinds of interesting details about each stop we made. The only thing I wish we would have had time to see was the FDR Memorial. We didn't have time to stop. Having done that one before, I realize it is rather time consuming because of the size of the monument.
