Unfortunatelly not satisfied at all. Neither the speaker nor the plan was not good. The weather was also bad you can check the weather before buying tickets

Excellent decision to go on this tour. We saw everything we wanted to without having to worry about getting an Uber or parking. We learned a lot of facts and got some insider info! Tonya and Terry were awesome!

Wonderful way to see a lot of the sites without having to walk the distance. Loved seeing them during the night too. Only thing I would recommend is for the guides to either carry something that reflects or wear something that reflects so it makes it easier to see them

Doing DC Monuments night tour was the best decision as the heroes come alive at night. It was a 3 hour tour from 7.30 to 10.30 p.m with 9 stops including US Capitol, The White House, US Marine Corps War Memorial, World War 2 Memorial, Vietnam Veterans Memorial, The Lincoln Memorial, Korean War Veterans Memorial, Washington Monument (from the bus) and Martin Luther King Jr Memorial. It was a windy evening in early April making it difficult to walk up to the memorials but the beautifully & strategically lit up places made us forget the chill. Each memorial was different from the other which made them even more interesting. Our guide was like an history encyclopedia sharing information while being witty at the same time. We enjoyed the night tour immensely & would definitely recommend going for it.

I highly recommend this trip. I've visited DC three times, and this was a great way to experience the city and the memorials in a different way. George was very knowledgeable, and Gil was the best driver around. It's truly over three hours, which is great, but we were exhausted afterwards.

I was visiting from southwest Florida with my little sister and Rochelle (which I learned was a French name) and Keith gave us an absolutely incredible tour. This was our very first time in DC and we were excited to learn about the history. The monuments were gorgeous at night but it was the heartfelt enthusiasm that I sensed from Rochelle that really made the trip memorable. I left the tour with a renewed sense of patriotism. Not only is she funny but she is also mindful of setting apart time to honor our fallen and ruminate on what the monuments represent. Keith was also an excellent driver and ready to engage in conversation as well. 100/10 if you’re looking to book, I hope you land on their bus!

My 76-yr old mother and I took the DC Monuments & Memorials Night Tour and it was fantastic. We packed so much in the 3.5 hour tour, yet it never felt rushed. Our tour guide Rochelle was the best. A native Washington DC’er who was delightful, fun, caring, and knowledgeable. Both Rochelle, and our driver Keith, took great care to make sure my elderly mother was always safe and included in the group, even though she walks slow and couldn’t always keep up. Can’t recommend this tour enough. It provides a great overview of all the key sites.

Rochelle and Keith were a superb tour guide/driver duo. Polite yet hilarious, they were accommodating to us as adults and also to our 9/7 year olds. Strongly recommend upgrading to the glass top bus if the weather is nice - smaller tour size!

Loved being able to stop at each monument, learning about DC with facts and humor; letting us know about good picture spots
