Did a great job of taking care of securing our seats... Our seats at all shows were excellent. It could not have been made any easier... I did not have to stand in lines. I would recommend VME to anyone and certainly will use them again.

Reviews
this bus driver was the best - he gave us all kinds of information and allowed us adequate time to see everything. The air conditioned bus was a real plus on a hot DC day!!
Teri Sullivan - Southwest Ranches, FL
Great time on the tour all day long. Very resourceful guide, timely, and well prepared we could not have been happier. Our nations capitol is such a marvelous place to visit when the right people are directing. The Greyline Company are professionals at what they do.

Great tour. I wish our driver had told us to keep our food and water on the bus though during the Capitol tour the guards made us throw all of our stuff away before entering and then charged a ton to buy food and water inside, so that cost us a lot of money since we had to throw out like 4 bottles of water that we were planning to use all day. But the guide was good, and the sites were good. I would absolutely do the tour again instead of fighting thru traffic on my own. Bummer that the Washington Monument was closed though, due to damage done to it during the earthquake. And the reflecting pool was getting dug up. But those things can't be helped I suppose. All in all, I definitely recommend this tour for other first-timers such as myself.
