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.

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!

Almost $190 for 2 adults and 1 child. (They start charging adult price at age 13.) Our tour guide was fun! Super knowledgeable about DC's history and landmarks, and kept things entertaining the entire time. They also deserve major credit for skillfully navigating all the traffic and crowds during peak cherry blossom season, which is no small task. It was a great way to see the city without the stress of figuring out transportation during such a busy time. If you're visiting during the festival and want something easy, informative, and fun, this is definitely worth considering.

All of us gave the tour a hardy thumbs up. In fact, everyone said that this reunion was the best so far because of the tour. The staff's professionalism (Juanita) in putting together the tour, her grasp of the logistics, and her knowledge of DC sites made the tour a roaring success. Besides the actual touring of the sites (especially the Frederick Douglas house), all of the reunion participants were very impressed with the lunch that Juanita recommended. Delicious soul food (not to mention the large portions) put the right topping on an excellent tour. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who is interested in Black History in America and who enjoys an entertaining time with informed, professional tour guides and friends. Patsy P.

The walk lasts for 3.5 hours so I highly recommend sturdy shoes and perhaps a bottle of water. Tim (the guide) provides a snack along the way and hits up rest stops at appropriate times. It is a somewhat brisk walk at times but to cover everything we saw in the time period it was perfect and totally do-able! Even if you have lived in DC or the surrounding areas all your life, if you have not taken this tour, I highly recommend that you do!
