Excelente tour and our tour guide was very good and gave us a lot of details and history about the monuments.
Lucky to be with the smaller group

Really, we had a 5-star tour but it could have been a 1-star. We just so happened to be in line at the cut off for a second bud, so only had about 20 people on our tour with a great guide. But had we been earlier in line we would have been on a full coach of 50+ people and it would have been unwieldy. So beware if you are looking for a smaller group tour, this may not be it. But the monuments are beautiful at night.
Just Take the tour

I had the pleasure of visiting D.C. for the very first time and toured with Chris and Sally. Chris was very pleasant and Sally was very knowledgeable of the history of D.C. and its major monuments. I would highly recommend them both!

Iwo Jima, Martin Luther King and Lincoln Memorials at night. July 4th weekend is really crowded because allot of people come in for the fireworks, so allow extra time to do anything!

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
