We went on the USA VIP Tour + U.S. Capitol & National Archives Entry, and it was absolutely fantastic, especially because of our guide, Sam! From the start, Sam made the day so much fun. He stopped with us at all the major monuments around Washington, D.C. and shared great stories and fun facts that really brought everything to life. His knowledge and energy made each stop memorable. One of the highlights was our visit to the United States Capitol and the National Archives Building ....such an incredible experience! What truly stood out, though, was how far Sam went above and beyond. I accidentally lost my phone, and while we continued on our Capitol tour, he went back in the pouring rain to retrieve it for me. That level of care and dedication meant so much and turned what could have been a stressful situation into a story I'll never forget. Sam truly made the day unforgettable. If you're considering this tour, I highly recommend it.... and definitely ask for Sam if you can, he's a great photographer too! read more

Rating: 5.0 03/2025 Booked the Discover DC tours online via third-party. It was discounted and it was very easy. In no time I received an email with my tickets and I printed them and downloaded the E ticket on my phone. The day of the excursion we made sure we were early on the meeting site . There was a line for check-in for they give you different color wristbands based on the type of tour you paid. We were fortunate enough to be with Mr. Dion as our tour guide and Mr. Calvin (he would "come on down" as if we were in a game show )as our driver. The bus was comfortable, very squeaky, but they provided us with water throughout the day. Mr. Dion was knowledgeable and funny and very thorough. He took attendance with each and every stop and inside the bus. He used a microphone inside the bus and who was learning clear outside. We saw so many things and so many places in six hours . I am grateful for the water and the bathroom breaks. The tour allowed us to get from one place to another without the hassle of driving or taking an Uber or finding parking. I definitely recommend! read more

We booked the tour the night before, easy to book on the website. It's about 29 degree's outside, but thankfully the bus was warm and that was a god send. Went all over DC, saw the signs, tour guide was very impressive, she really knew the history of things. Plenty of bathroom stops on the tours and a lunch stop. 100% recommend! read more

BLUF: DC by Dusk Tour was an efficient way to see about eight monuments under moonlight and many other sights. One of my friends and I went on the DC by Dusk Tour with Sam and Sean and loved it! After a long, hot, humid day of walking around DC it was so nice to unwind by being driven around in a clean and heavily air conditioned bus that provided chilled water. We loved the narration of Sam and we're grateful to Sean for safely driving the bus around the city! We enjoyed visiting the Capitol, White House, WW II Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, MLK Memorial, Marine Corps Memorial, Vietnam Memorial, Korean War Memorial and Lincoln memorial during the evening hours. Our tour started at 7:30pm and we were back to our parking garage before it closed at 11pm. Sam was super awesome corralling the cats in a charismatic way and telling us about history as we passed by various sights and buildings between monuments. Shout out to Sean too for dropping us off so close to the monuments, keeping the bus cool and maintaining a well stocked cooler of refreshing water. I loved seeing both the sights of DC under team work and the teamwork of this great duo. I had such a good time that I am already eying up another USA Guide Tour like the Scandal Tour or the Christmas Lights Tour. read more

We had the best day ever on our DC tour thanks to Evan and John! Evan is truly an exceptional guide...incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and so patient with our family. He brought every monument and story to life in a way that made the day unforgettable. You can tell he loves what he does, and it made all the difference. And a huge thank you to John, our driver, who was professional, attentive, and kept everything running smoothly. His driving was safe, calm, and perfectly timed, making the whole experience seamless. This tour was the highlight of our trip. We left with amazing memories, learned so much, and had nonstop fun. We can't recommend Evan and John enough! read more

My wife and I took a night monuments tour with USA Guided Tours on Valentine's Eve this year , and we had a wonderful time learning about the monuments and history of Washington, DC that evening. The 40- or so seat tour bus was warm and very comfortable to be in during that cold February evening, and our driver and tour guide was very good in guiding us to the sights and explaining the monuments we see with insights and good amount of humor too. Highly recommended this tour company for sightseeing tours in Washington DC, and on the chance we get to visit the city again, we will certainly do the daytime tours as well. read more

Overall very good. Driver and docent were entertaining and very informative. But the experience started off very badly when the company dropped the ball in picking 6 of us up at our hotel. Had to Uber over on their dime in a small suv. No apologies from them, no answers as to why. read more

Small Group Tour of DC - Open-Top or Glass-Top Luxury Bus I recently booked a tour for my husband and myself through Wyndham tours organized by Viatours which we have used before.. It was a very hot day (real feel- 81 to 104) and we were very disappointed in our tour and guide, Rob. Although he was knowledgeable about history , he seemed to like to hear himself talk. There were 4 seniors (including us) and he paid no attention to the fact that it was very hot. He made a stand looking at the Vietnam war memorial for at least 20 minutes in the hot sun, and even when I asked to move on he wouldn't. he told story after story about the names on the wall, and it he had looked at his audience he would have noticed the heat people were suffering and the lack of interest. After that he took us to the Jefferson memorial and wanted everyone to climb the stairs after that long stand in the blazing sun. I asked him what we would see after that and he mentioned 3 more memorials and said "And I will continue to tell stories." in a nasty voice because I had asked to shorten the stories about the men and women inscribed on the Vietnam Memorial He also told some very inappropriate "wife" jokes that were degrading to women. I was insulted and disgusted. Another issue was that he said we would not visit the National Archives let alone the VIP access described on line: I recently booked a tour for my husband and myself through Wyndham website ..

We left the tour at that point, very unhappy with our purchase, since this was one of the most expensive tours. When you click on "itinerary" on the website, nothing shows up which leads me to believe that each guide just does their own thing. We paid over $200 for a very unsatisfactory day based on the reviews on this tour. We thought that among the iconic landmarks we would visit Washington Memorial, which we only saw from afar.

.Great activity for a night out! Sam was a knowledgeable tour guide and the driver operated the vehicle safely. The tour offered a broad span of holiday lights sighting throughout the city [that I would not have accomplished by myself]. The tour wrapped up as we entered Embassy row so only one home was featured on the tour. The bus was clean and warm. I recommend better incorporation of Embassy row in the itinerary. read more

Raphael was a great tour guide. Very informative and knowledgeable. I learned a lot on my first trip to Washington DC

We ended up taking two very similar tours in Washington dc. The USA guided tour with Evan as the guide and Maggie as driver was superior. Maggie spotted the coach so close to the curb for easy exit it was unbelievable Evan had great facts reguarding every stop and monument. Truly enjoyable for all ages read more

Dre is the bomb. Wealth of knowledge and great presentation! Can't ask for better! Highly recommend!

Hey Rae !! I had the good fortunate of treating my German friend to a short (weekend) stay at the Mayflower Hotel in D.C. where we learned about this tour we took. My friend repeatedly described the tour as EXCELLENT. We would not have managed so many monument and memorial and generally important sites in D.C. in such an abbreviated time that was so thorough. Rae kept it fun too! Politics were avoided thankfully so there was no negative divisive overtone, and whatever did arise was quickly dropped. A young man in a 2020 Donald J. Trump hat was perfectly safe, and was not accosted in any way. We did the night time tour and so -- sure some things are not so visible -- but it was also sort of a more magical 'feel'. The mural in the Lincoln memorial was difficult to make out at all, and that was the only disappointment in "lighting" at the monuments that I'd vote (contribute to fund) to add lighting. Very thoughtfully, Rae our tour guide and Calvin our bus driver were using flashlights to keep us safe -- and calling out the time left on the "walk" crossing timer things. There was a whole lot of on and off but was surprisingly smooth. read more

Terrific tour of all the D.C. staples and monuments. Tour guide dished out some corny but funny jokes that made a lot of us chuckle along with free bottled water and great A/C on the first half of the trip. Towards the end they turned off the A/C but it was a nice night, so I did not mind. Reasonably priced and if you want to get as much of D.C in as you can and not want to deal with all the driving, parking, etc in the most touristy areas I think this is a brilliant move. As always people SYOY!!! read more
