The trio to Washington was worth the price because the guides were exemplary in their knowledge of the history of so many people and events. Seeing the historical took a different meaning when we learned from the guides the historical context and background to it. Additional, the trip was done in a manner which allowed for break and restroom stops. Following the stops the guides did a complete count to ensure that everyone was on board before we departed. Finally, the trip enlisted a variety of drivers and all of them were superb at what they do. They never compromised our safety and the ride always felt safe. In all, I would recommend this trip to friends, and I too will plan on future trip ( Philadelphia and Boston)

Learning about the rich history of Washington, DC. Seeing the difference sites. The only downside is you are on a time crunch, and the traffic of the Washington DC. It’s still worth every penny.
