Washington After Dark Tour

Our guide, Douglas, was absolutely wonderful! His insight and the information he shared was magnificent. It was amazing. You could tell he REALLY enjoys his job and takes pride in making sure everyone knows as much as they can about the places we stopped. His favorite - the FDR memorial - was not on my MUST SEE list, but after hearing Douglas' narrations I was extremely impressed. I would love to have ALL my tours with Douglas. He should be commended for his dedication and passion he has for the DC memorials.

DC After Dark

Great tour. A really interesting view of the monuments at dusk and after dark. Only the Roosevelt Monument was too dark to appreciate and should be moved to the daytime tours.

Would have liked to spend a little more time at the Lincoln Memorial. The driver was great and very knowledgeable.
