Book this tour! African Americans are a big part of America’s history and progress. This tour was an amazing learning experience. Dré shared so much information and stories that he made the monuments come alive for us. Do not miss this tour!

The whole experience was good. I enjoyed the commentary from our very knowledgeable guide. He shared a part of history with us that I wasn’t aware of. Thanks so much for a great time.

Our tour guide Dré was so very knowledgeable and very entertaining. He had the facts and the jokes. I liked the open air best, since the weather was warm, it was a nice touch.

It was absolutely an outstanding experience and the tour guide was the most knowledgeable and interesting tour guide we've ever experienced. His name was Dre and the coach driver was Jon! Plan your day around it...especially when end at the National Museum of African-American History and Culture. We would recommend pre-planning your time at the museum. It is almost overwhelming in its vastness. We prioritized the lower levels...so powerful.
