Great experience! Hitting the highpoints of three museums, perfect for a quick trip. Our guide, Dash, was knowledgeable, entertaining with a great sense of humor.
Our guide was fantastic! ...
Our guide was fantastic! I wish I remembered her name. She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, funny and patience on the 5th of July in extreme heat.
Informative and Entertaining
Dash was a fantastic guide. He was very knowledgeable and he did a great job of explaining since my husband is blind. We were running late and Kirsten went out of her way to connect us with a group. With the National Mall closed due the State Fair, it was a lot of walking from one museum to the next but it was a great introduction to the Big 3. We fully appreciate that they accommodated us with our being late. Great customer service!!!

Great tour!
Christina was excellent. Very knowledgeable, not only about the museums, but how to get around the city as well. She was very accommodating for both my husband and I who use walkers. Our tour was on July 4th so the crowds were huge. We truly enjoyed the tour! Thanks, Christina!
