Beautiful night out in an open air bus with live narration from a super friendly and fun guide...Sooner Steve. Tour was on time. Saw highlights of Monuments. 3 stops to get off and see them. Windows are open air but there are clear plastic windows that can close if it's real cold. Dress warm and you will enjoy yourself. This was a mid April visit. Highly recommend!

Jennifer_H

The tour was fantastic, and our guide, Drew, was so knowledgeable. He pointed everything out, knew history on almost everything we drove by and even quoted many speeches. He made it even better.

Our guide MJ was fantastic the most beautiful tour . I would advise everyone to do this tour first either in the day or the night get your bearings around Washington DC. This was well worth the money spent to take this tour. We loved it.

Patricia_M

Sooner Steve and his tour guiding skills! He was excellent and made the entire experience fun!! It was great to see the monuments at night. We do wish we could have gone to the Jefferson Memorial. Maybe on the next tour.

Roman_B

Great concept. But the going to the FDR Memorial and Vietnam memorial at night does not make a tremendous amount of sense, since they are not really well lit. Lincoln memorial and MLK were nice

Raphael_G

Our guide, Byron, was excellent! Very knowledgeable and funny. The tour was great but some of the memorial lighting was not the best.
