    We are a tour operator that uses Excellent Tours buses and we have been very satisfied with the quality of the buses and drivers.

    Private 8pm sunset tour review - I'm guessing this tour is…read morea make or break based on the guide you get, ours was lack luster. While he was nice, he didn't have a lot to add off the track I pretty sure he had memorized. I actually feel like I heard most about which monuments had the best restrooms than much of anything else (we never asked about bathroom situations). Would I book this again, no. Here is what I learned, you still walk a fair amount into these monuments from where they drop you in the golf cart vs. the people who are on the bikes and scooters. If you're really looking for the least amount of walking and able to operate those that would save you time and money. Overall, there was no value for the price tag for us and the guide kind of ruined the experience.

    Capitol Express Tours are GREAT! they picked us up at our hotel for the tour which was amazingly…read moreconvenient. Nathan, our tour guide was so friendly, personable and most important knowledgeable without feeling like we were in a classroom being lectured. He gave us plenty of time at all the sites. He even dropped us off at a Metro station after the tour and told us how to get to where we wanted to go, Postal Museum. Dropped us at Gallery Place and took the red line two stops to Union Station and the museum was right next door! Just wanted to make sure Nathan was acknowledged for his premiere service and I wanted to let you know how much my sister and I enjoyed the tour and set up our Saturday for a great day. We were on the first tour of the day to see where everything was and then spent the rest of the day going back to those places we wanted to see more of. And there were only 4 of us on the tour! THAT has never happened to me. A microphone for the tour guide and speaker wouuld be helpful if you are sitting further back in the golf cart. But overall. . . a 10 out of 10!

    Logan Circle, Downtown

    Having toured countless places in countless ways all over the world, including D.C. before, it is…read moreinexplicable to my family and me how this business has any 4 or 5 star ratings. If we could give it a ZERO STAR rating, we would certainly do so. Starting the night prior to our Mt. Vernon tour, Yohannes went overboard repeatedly texting/calling (from anxiety that we'd not show?). He was rude on the phone; for example, four minutes after texting him that we'd be 10 minutes late, he called. When I answered my phone, he was aggressive, "Where are you?!" No "Hello." No "This is Yahannes at DC Tours..." Just the accostive greeting. It got no better. My wife wanted to cancel before we started. We should have. Our driver and tour guide, Dani, picked us up at a downtown site, and did a fine job driving us to Mt. Vernon. He was a nice man (at least he had manners!), though never should be called a "tour guide." He knew nothing about the place that we couldn't read in all the plaques; and oddly would just repeat phrases from the plaques as we were reading them. It was weird, a bit awkward. We might as well have saved plenty of money, rented a car and taken ourselves. Oof, forget all the 5 star reviews...not sure how this outfit remains in business.

    this was our second night tour, last one we were in town nine years ago!! Glad he is still doing…read morethe tours!!!! Dr. Yohannes Zeleke Is just plain great!! He has so much knowledge! We did the night tour again. DC, the buildings, and the monuments look great and so much different at night. He does not rush. If you want to take pictures, he will stop. If we are back in DC, we will do another tour with him. Call him sign up!!! He will not disappoint.

    We took the Hop-On Hop-Off bus tour starting from Union Station. First of all, the woman selling…read morethe tickets inside of Union Station was very nice, but she was confused about a lot of things. There were 6 of us in our group, and she did say that if we purchased several tickets together (I think 4), we get a 10 percent discount. This was helpful, so we purchased all of our tickets together. On the ticket receipts, there were discount coupons for various things, and we had to show the bus driver the receipt every time we hopped back on. One of the discounts was supposed to be a free bicycle ride at The Wharf. So we got off at the Wharf & Potomac Boat Cruise. We left my elderly Mom and one other person in our group at Shake Shack on the wharf, and the rest of us proceeded to walk to the place where we could get on the bicycles. But it was not on or near the Wharf! We ended up walking for at least 30 minutes or more, to get to the bicycle rental place. It was an overcast day and it was drizzling, so that was not good walking a long distance. We finally found the place, and then found out that the coupon was not good for a free bicycle ride! It turned out that we had to pay for a one hour rental, and get one hour free. Well, since it took so long to walk there, we hardly had any time to bicycle, and everyone said "forget it, we'll pass." We were already tired, and ended up taking an Uber back to the wharf. The bus tour itself was fine. We were given headphone wires to plug into the bus seat, to hear the tour narration. We also found that the map of the stops were not logistically correct. For example, we wanted to see the White House, but when we exited at the corresponding stop (#17), it was a really long walk to the White House. We thought that one of the other stops on the map would have actually been closer to the White House, and the map gives the impression that the attraction is right where you hop off the bus. Since it was cold, windy and drizzly, it made walking long distances extremely unpleasant for many in our group. Although we didn't have any issues with our bus itself, I do want to mention that my sister's husband went on the same bus tour two days before us. He said that there was a problem with his bus, which flooded or something, and all passengers had to get off the bus, and they had to wait for another bus to pick them up to continue the tour.

    The Big Bus doesn't even deserve one star. The guide is audio and you cannot hear anything…read more There is no way of knowing where you are or what you're looking at. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
