This is a great way to see many sights in DC in one day. Our tour guide Dion and the driver Maggie were awesome. Dion is super knowledgeable, energetic and so funny. We were stuck in traffic on our way to the meeting point and arrived a few late. They were so patient with us. Thank you! I highly recommend this tour!

Christopher was great! He was very informative and had lots of jokes. Went to all the memorials, White House, capital, Potomac river cruise, and had lunch at Georgetown. Upgraded to the glass top which was great when he opened it up and we got to cruise with the top off. But then it started to rain so he had to close the roof. Definitely recommend if you want to see all the sights in one day.
