The night tour was spectacular!! Highly recommend. Our guide was Derek and he was awesome. Very knowledgeable, but kept it a light and fun trip.

DC at Dusk Guided Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Along with my wife and 2 young adult grandchildren we took the DC at Dusk Guided Tour. Our driver was Sean and our tour guide was Rob Robertson. It was very enjoyable, even through the frigid January temps. Rob did a great job explaining so much of the history about each monument and memorial and even knew quite a bit of interesting trivia. The tour was about 3 hours but count on closer to 4 with the ride to and from the monument sites. I consider it well worth the cost.

It was amazing. Evan was...

Published on Jan, 2025

It was amazing. Evan was so informative. The little tidbits he was able to add from personal experiences and having lived in the area for so long was great. He was friendly and entertaining without being cheesy. Ms. Tanya the driver was great as well.

Fun & informative! Good times had by all.

Published on Jan, 2025

We had a great time! Dre was a very informative tour guide that kept us laughing and learning. I have toured many monuments and memorials multiple times, but I was very impressed with Dre’s knowledge. I still learned so much that I had never heard before. The bus was nice and clean. Our driver did an excellent job and kept us safe! I would definitely recommend this tour.

DC best at night!

Published on Jan, 2025

Really great tour. Awesome to miss all the crowds at night, albeit it's a little chilly in January -- dress warm. Special shout-out to my driver Tyrell -- great guy, and great conversation back to my hotel. Highly recommend!
