This was a very interesting and informative tour, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Our guide (sorry I can't remember his name) was very friendly and personable. We would never have been able to gain this information on out own. It was also great that we could ask some questions about living in DC and what this was like. Thanks!
Two Grandparents ... 5 kids ages 10-17. We all enjoyed Liam's expertise, humor and stories in our tour. Very informed and he made it interesting for everybody. Highly recommend.
This tour was awesome. Lyam was our guide and he was wonderful. I had 3 grandchildren with me and he kept their attention as well as mine. He was very accommodating and answered all our questions about not only the tour but Washington too. We were very excited to find out that he would be our guide the next day at Arlington. Great tour.
We all had a wonderful day with Liam. He was so interesting and made the tour a pleasure. There was not a minute that he didn't captivate our attention. BRAVO! and Thank you.
The main tip I would give my fellow future travellers is. Make sure you have a phone number to call someone. We arrived at our pick up point, waited and waited, no one showed up! We called the guide, who bless him was there within 10 mins. The tour was good , the guide Liam was excellent. Bit of a let down from Viator.
