"Awesome Tour Guide"

Reviewed October 23, 2024

My husband and I were in town for my graduation, and this was our first trip to Washington DC. We got tickets at our hotel to take the moonlight tour. Our tour guide,Prince, was an awesome tour guide. He joked with us about "the outside smells like a Saturday night." We were told stories of history and when he first visited with his class. He was very informative. The only bad thing was the traffic and the wind. Prince made our trip enjoyable. He even dropped us off at our hotel. We will definitely be back to take his tour in the springtime..

"A Good Intro to DC"

Reviewed October 18, 2024

The drivers/guides on this tour are great! They were friendly and gave some good recommendations for attractions and restaurants to try. The condition of the trolleys was also good and we had no problem finding the stops and using the hop on/hop off service. However, the price feels a bit expensive given the fact that you cannot see much from the trolley itself, even though the narration is enjoyable.

Duke was amazing! We do the OTTT in any city we visit that has one. They never disappoint. Knowledgeable and personable! Our 10 year old grandson was looking for a way to see many of the sights without the crowds and this was perfect!
