We had the 2 day tour. Mount Vernon and Arlington tours were wonderful! Our second day was the Best of DC tour and was too rushed...not enough time at the stops, monuments especially. Also instructions for arrival time first day were not accurate..arrived an hour too early and second day tour was delayed by 45 minutes because tour bus too small to accommodate guests...had to wait for another bus to arrive. Bus drivers were very knowledgable!!!
Was a brilliant tour. Day one round Washington, day two - Arlington and Mount Vernon. Thoroughly recommended.
It was a great experience, and the drivers were absolutely wonderful. they were knowledgeable and adjusted beautifully to weather conditions and the desires of all of us on the trip. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting D.C.
This tour is was amazing and I loved all the stops, on my second day to Arlington and Mt Vernon, I think the stop times should have been more equally. I could have had more time at Arlington and less time at Mt Vernon.
Excellent tours. Both days. Different drivers. Both knowledgeable and enjoyable to listen to during our tour. Both went out of their way to add an extra stop for viewing. Each had 27 years experience giving tours of the city! . Gave recommendations throughout the tour to make our visit to D.C. more enjoyable. Only way to capture the full essence of the city and to appreciate all it has within it!!!! UNBELIEVABLE!
My husband and I really enjoyed our 2-day tour experience with Grayline Tours. They were professional, courteous, and very knowledgeable about D.C.! I would highly recommend this company to others. Touring Mount Vernon was more then I expected. There was so much to see!
When booked trip, didn't realise that first day of trip was basically an open top bus tour. Driver was also guide and told things along the route. He was very informative and entertaining but was not what I was expecting. Having booked many Viator trips in many countries I was expecting an individual guide who got off bus with you and explained things along way. This happened on 2nd trip I booked whilst in Washington through Viator at the same time. I just presumed that all trips had their own individual guide and not the job to be the Bus Driver as well. Same happened on 2nd day of trip. Driver, even though excellent and very informative, did not get off the bus with you.
