About this activity
These evening small group bus tours in Washington DC by this local tour operator strive to give the best guest experience possible! They do everything possible to make sure guests don't feel like they are being herded around. On this evening tour of DC, you won't have to worry about keeping up with your guide or a crowded tour.
Our guides share stories that grandparents & grandchildren will enjoy, as well as our visitors from other countries, plus they have a number of ways to engage guests throughout every tour because the last thing they want is for people to feel like they are stuck in a rolling classroom. These guides excel in helping guests get all the pictures they want, yet still provide the time & freedom to explore on their own at most locations even on a night tour.
At the following locations, your DC tour guide will share the stories that keep everyone entertained & engaged at the beginning of each visit to these American treasures. Most stops last 10-20 minutes and after hearing some great American history, guides will help take any photos our guests want, then allow a few minutes to wonder on your own. These locations are only visited from the outside during this evening tour.
• US Capitol
• White House
• WWII Memorial
• Thomas Jefferson Memorial
• Franklin Roosevelt Memorial
• Martin Luther King Memorial
• Korean War Memorial
• Abraham Lincoln Memorial
• Vietnam Veteran's Memorial
• Marine Corps Memorial
• Air Force Memorial
Due to the nature of our small groups, sometimes we get to change the itinerary based on the desires of the guests that day, especially if your family, friends, or group are the only ones touring that evening! At times, the following locations may be included during the tour:
• Kennedy Center
• Embassy Row
• National Cathedral

We both had a wonderful evening and enjoyed our tour with Brian. We were lucky enough to be picked up and dropped off at our hotel which was a bonus. Learnt lots about the monuments and memorials. Recommend this tour to all.
We were picked up during a down pour with umbrellas. Our guide was knowledgeable with stories the educated as well as entertained. We got to see all of the Monuments (Lincoln, Jefferson and MLK) and Memorials (WWII, Korea and Viet Nam) as well as the White House and several branches of the military. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour with THIS company.
Exceeded my expectations! Very personable and informative. Would highly recommend this tour. Be prepared to walk a bit but you will get plenty of time at each stop.
My family and I had an absolute blast on the Epic DC Evening Tour by BiPartisan Tours! Brian is a walking/driving history book. He made us feel comfortable and welcome. He engaged with all of my family including my young sons who had tons of questions and comments. It will be an experience we will cherrish forever.
Brian gives you a really good tour with many interesting factoids and stories. We would not have gotten to all of these sites on our own.
We were only in DC for 3 days, so we wanted to cover as much ground as possible in that short amount of time. This tour was terrific for seeing all the monuments during a time slot that the museums were closed and we didn't have anything else planned. Our driver did an amazing job navigating traffic while giving us an over view of the area, historical information, and information about the monuments. We had ample time to get out of the van and view the monuments at each stop. The evening conditions were very pleasant. If you are considering doing this, go ahead and do it. You will not be disappointed!
Very accommodating! Picked us up from the hotel and was willing to go early because of possible bad weather on the way! Excellent driver in crazy traffic and had great information to share! Very entertaining! It was so good that one of us stayed a few extra days and took the tour again with her daughter!
Thank you so much to Brian who shared his knowledge of the area. We stopped at every monument and were able to get off to see them up close. We only had 9 on the tour so it was intimate. Brian is friendly and kind! Highly recommend this tour. The monuments are stunning at night!
If you haven't heard it before, you should know that Washington DC is probably the country's most beautiful city at night. New York, Dallas and San Francisco all have a special appeal at night, but only Washington DC has the special combination of history, the national heart beat and stunning white marble that, with the proper tour guide, can leave you breathless, out of memory on your iPhone and appreciative of this country's founders, presidents and defenders. Brian was wonderful tour guide and had not just the encyclopedic knowledge of each monument, memorial, building and statue, but he had an endless store of the little stories-behind-the-story that give you a deep appreciation of our history and how each piece was created. We were a small group, just five ladies, for his four-hour tour and he made sure he tailored our trip to everyone's tastes. He was also very careful and patient when he learned that I was visually impaired and made sure I got to the elevator to the Lincoln Memorial. Who knew there was an elevator? He also pointed out the best places to capture the almost-full moon next to the Washington monument mirrored in the reflecting pond, the soaring spires of the Air Force Memorial, the WWII Memorial and all the rooms of the Franklin Roosevelt Memorial. Each stop of our tour came with special memories and beautiful photographs. I've always had a deep interest in our history and politics and while we traded a few stories, I was only able to stump him once--when I told him I wanted to see "Puppet Beach"--a media insider term for the North Lawn of the White House! If you are trying to decide on a tour of Washington DC at Night, take this one!
First let me say our guide Dustin was amazingly full of information and facts, extremely down to earth and friendly. We began our tour when Dustin picked us up at our hotel and then proceeded to collect the rest of our tour-mates. This tour was meaningful and emotional we loved every second of it. It was a 4 hour trip that made us proud of our country.
Dustin our Tour Operator (Driver and Educator) was highly Profesional. He made Our Night Tour of Washington DC a lifetime experience Our Family will never forget.The Van not only provided a safe and comfortable ride but was equipped with excellent viewing and audio attributes,Dustin did everything possible to make sure Our Tour was Fantastic, including a safe return to Our Hotel at the end of the Evening! Thanks for making Our Experience, So Special! The Romo Family
This Washington DC Tour was fabulous! Brian was a wealth of information and we enjoyed the small van feel with 2 families from Australia!! Brian picked us up @ The Watergate Hotel and dropped us back there too....very accommodating as driving in DC is no fun. Got some great photos of the Capitol; White House; Monuments and Landmarks, etc. @ night.......with no crowds! Highly recommend this amazing evening tour and yes, it is EPIC!!
