This three hour tour stops at many areas, most notably the Jefferson and Lincoln Memorials, which are stunning when lit up at night.

Monuments by Moonlight Night Tour
Our guide, Clarence, was just outstanding. He set the expectations/rules at the start which prevented any problems that may have occurred. He was courteous, knowledgeable, and just a wealth of information.

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

Monuments by Moonlight Night Tour
We really had a great time on the Monuments by Moonlight Tour. I enjoyed it very much, as did my children. The guide was very knowledgeable -- and quirky enough to keep it interesting. The only suggestion I have is to make the departure time more clear. When I bought my tickets online, the web said that we would depart at 7:30. However, when I called to confirm our reservations the day before, I learned that we were to leave at 6:30. The woman on the phone couldn't even find our names to confirm our reservations, so I was a bit nervous. Uncertain as to what time we were really leaving, we showed up at 6:00 just in case. But it all worked out well and we would definitely want to take the tour again. I've already recommended to several others. Thanks so much.
