Although it poured down rain and the wind whipped at us from every direction, our DC Night Tour was a highlight of our trip. Buzz and Shawn were fantastic, providing us with a safe, informative trip around the National Mall. This is a MUST DO before you leave the nation's capital. read more

I took a tour of DC today and it was great! Our tour guide was Brittany. Our driver was Joe. Both were very upbeat and pleasant. Brittany was very knowledgeable and gave background on each site we visited. Joe also helped me pick the best seat since I was the first arrival. I will recommend this to all my family and friends! read more

Raphael was a great tour guide. Very informative and knowledgeable. I learned a lot on my first trip to Washington DC

We ended up taking two very similar tours in Washington dc. The USA guided tour with Evan as the guide and Maggie as driver was superior. Maggie spotted the coach so close to the curb for easy exit it was unbelievable Evan had great facts reguarding every stop and monument. Truly enjoyable for all ages read more

Derek and Shawn/Sean were great, very informative and made it entertaining. The tour at dusk added to the experience. 10/10

Dre is the bomb. Wealth of knowledge and great presentation! Can't ask for better! Highly recommend!

Hey Rae !! I had the good fortunate of treating my German friend to a short (weekend) stay at the Mayflower Hotel in D.C. where we learned about this tour we took. My friend repeatedly described the tour as EXCELLENT. We would not have managed so many monument and memorial and generally important sites in D.C. in such an abbreviated time that was so thorough. Rae kept it fun too! Politics were avoided thankfully so there was no negative divisive overtone, and whatever did arise was quickly dropped. A young man in a 2020 Donald J. Trump hat was perfectly safe, and was not accosted in any way. We did the night time tour and so -- sure some things are not so visible -- but it was also sort of a more magical 'feel'. The mural in the Lincoln memorial was difficult to make out at all, and that was the only disappointment in "lighting" at the monuments that I'd vote (contribute to fund) to add lighting. Very thoughtfully, Rae our tour guide and Calvin our bus driver were using flashlights to keep us safe -- and calling out the time left on the "walk" crossing timer things. There was a whole lot of on and off but was surprisingly smooth. read more

Sam and his partner were the best! Super informative, funny and made the whole group feel safe and in great hands! Hight recommend.

Purchased the VIP Best of DC with US Capitol & National Archives reserved entry tour for our group of 9. Very disappointed that we were not taken closer to the White House due to time constraints which is a bunch of bs. 2. We were just taken inside the national archives and left there to explore on our own without any guided tour. Our tour ended at 3:30 pm when it should've been 4:30 pm . read more

Amazing time! Dion and Anthony were great had us on time to every location and held an amazing amount of knowledge! Just made the tour go smoothly. Great time! Definitely wear comfortable shoes and clothing just to make the walking a breeze. read more

Nick and Leah did a fabulous job with getting us to all the National Monuments, filling our heads full of interesting facts, and sprinkling in humor along the way! The Capitol tour was amazing, ending with the National Archives was perfect, and walking through the many memorials reminded us of the price that's been paid for our freedoms. It is a tour worth every penny! :) read more

Dctourgod Nicholas Tourgod McCall and his van driver (beautiful woman) were both exceptional. Nick knew lots of history, and jokes and he kept us on track to see everything. I highly recommend him and his driver. Sorry I did not get her name but she had a knee brace on 8/2/2025 was our tour 1st one of the day. It was an 8 hour tour. read more

While visiting Washington DC we took two tours with this company. The Discover DC 6-hour Day Tour with Terry and driver Thomas was exceptional! Terry is so knowledgeable and made everything very interesting. We got to see all the major monuments and memorials and felt like it was a great introduction to DC. The bus is comfortable and we were offered plenty of water and bathroom breaks. Stellar day all in all! Our next tour was the Mount Vernon Day Tour with Nick as our guide. Although we thoroughly enjoyed Mt. Vernon, had this been our first experience with USA Guided Tours we would probably not be recommending them. Let me start by saying that Nick has a great personality and seems to know his material, but on this day he had three "trainee guides " with him and he spent his energy on them rather than "guiding" us. We felt rather abandoned once we got to Mt. Vernon, and rushed along with little or no commentary. In conclusion, this is most likely a good tour company, but it may be hit and miss, depending upon whom you get as your guide. read more

Clearer communication when booking a tour. The request for accommodations question should let people know that you don't provide a wheelchair. And the manager to say that we would have had to pay extra for a wheelchair. I've been to multiple museums here in DC & they all provide wheelchairs at no cost. So the box to put in accommodations would mean that they would provide a bus that is ADA equipped but the bus we took was not ADA equipped. And then no empathy or partial refund because we couldn't exit the bus at every stop. read more

This review is for the : "Washington DC in One Day: Guided Sightseeing Tour". Excellent way to see the most of Washington D.C. in one day especially if you only have a day or two. It's also a great orientation of the city for further exploration. It's a full day with many stops (quite a bit of walking ) that allows you great photos. Restrooms are pointed out by the guide at various stops. There are no building entries (Capital ,White House etc.). The bus was air conditioned, comfortable seating , and had a fully stocked cooler of bottled water. You are allowed a small backpack (bring snacks) etc. Our guide (Dion "13") was so informative snd provided great historical insight to all the sites we visited and passed along the way. The boat cruise (wine , beer , and simple drinks were for sale onboard ) was very pleasant and lasted about an hour. You have a break to grab lunch at the waterfront complex. read more

Nick the @tourgod was one of the most amazing tour guides I've ever experienced! His knowledge and charisma made us feel so comfortable. He kept us laughing and on time! He was just a delightful and I'm so glad we got to experience him today! The Mercedes' sprinter is a beautiful site to see while traveling down Constitution ave and Pennsylvania ave. Such a luxurious site to see I'm so excited to take another tour with them in the spring! Here are come Loudoun VA wine country read more

Chris is great for Mt Vernon lots of fun facts! Very knowledgeable and quick witted! Highly recommend!

We took The Best Of DC Plus National Archives 6 hour tour since it was our first visit in DC and I was sure I didn't want to deal with the traffic. What a great way to see the highlights. Our tour guide was Joey and she was amazing. So many great stories. She should teach American History. We spent enough time at every stop. I would definitely want to spend more time in DC but at least I'm a little more familiar with the city and have an idea of what I want to revisit when I can spend more time. Totally recommend. read more

I took the African American History Tour in Washington, D.C.. I usually don't do group tours, preferring to meander my way through things. I'm so glad I made an exception this time. Above all, I want to shout out Dre, our tour guide. This guy has an encycolpedic knowledge of not only African American history in DC, but of history period. He doesn't just read from a prepared script. He engages everyone in dialogue, explains context, and provides insights beyond the historical events themselves. My brain is still spinning from the information he shared. I've purchased 6 books he recommended. I learned so much about so many things I would've walked right by on my own. I'm very grateful. Dre deserves a raise! Highly recommend this tour. And, of course, ask for Dre! read more

Our guide, Evan, was amazing! His knowledge and speaking skills made our tour an immersive experience. Hearing the backstory and details of the city and its monuments brought so much more meaning to everything we saw and every stone step we stood upon. Our appreciation for not only the remarkable individuals who created this unique nation, but the foresight and intent of the designers and builders in creating lasting and meaningful monuments to commemorate our nation's forefathers and also the individuals who bravely and fiercely made the ultimate sacrifice in the name of freedom. Thank Evan our guide. And thank you also to our drivers who took us safely through the city. We highly recommend booking your DC experience with USA Tours through Viator. read more

My husband and I took a two guided tour of DC with USA Guided Tours. The first Tour was our first day in DC. We wanted to see the sights and get an idea of what to expect on our stay. Rebecca and Antonio were so impressive that we decided to take the evening tour with the same company. We were fortunate to have Antonio as our driver again, and Derrick was an amazing guide. We would definitely recommend USA Guided Tours and if we get the chance will use them again! Thank you!! read more

Initially great recommendations by Sonesta Hotel, , also Joe a tour driver. We booked a 4 hour tour received confirmation , Also checked the night before and Shauna said we're all set. Called at 10;05 the day of the tour to see where the bus was. We were told by Shauna that they had overbooked and just passed over us. So over booked, no excuses , no hey let's make this right, no empathy just like the airlines " We don t care" we planned our whole day around this. Expected much more from this company. So thanks for ruining our stay in DC . Hopefully other Guest AND vacationers stay alert and NOT USE USA GUIDED TOURS.Also the local hotels who use USA Sould THINK again about PROMOTING THis COMPANY read more

My husband and I were in Washington DC for a quick business trip. We were here for a day and a half. This was the only travel company that allowed for booking 3-4 hours prior to departure. We had never seen the monuments at night and it was the only time slot that we had to do some sightseeing. Hands down seeing the monuments at night is a must do if you are in Washington DC. We had Smokey as our tour guide and Mike as our driver. Smokey was not only very knowledgeable of all of the sights, but he was very funny, an amazing singer that allowed him to sing us songs that fit certain locations and time periods, and he was great with the kids and teenagers at each stop. He answered all of their questions, he gave them fun things to look for at all the stops. We will use this company again when we come back with our kids. read more

Tonight we had the pleasure of a Tour with "13"-Dion and Silvia - it was absolutely fantastic. Silvia was a really safe driver and welcoming each time we got back on the bus. Dion was one of the best tour guides I've ever had (and I do tours!), he shared the history of the landmarks, brought to life stories, and pointed out details that I was thrilled to learn. He knew names of the people in the statues, W-42 names, and really understood Pierre (Peter) L'enfants ingenious design of the city. They even made sure we had water, a needed bathroom break, and a wonderful toasty bus to return to. WELL worth the $, loved this, and will do it again on my return, I hope to make sure to get Dion again! read more
