Good to know

  • For the small-group experience, each electric cart accommodates a maximum of 7 travellers, and multiple carts may be used per departure. While we do our best to seat groups together, this cannot be guaranteed, and guests may be split across separate carts.
  • For the private experience, your group will have exclusive use of an electric cart (maximum 7 people). This option is priced at a fixed total rate for up to 7 guests, meaning the full price applies regardless of group size.
  • Please arrive as scheduled, dress appropriately for the weather, and check your messages for any updates. Since our electric carts are not heated and are open to the environment, we recommend wearing layers of clothing during colder months.
  • This is a child-friendly tour, however, please note that all children will be charged at full adult rate due to limited seating. Our eCruisers can accommodate most types of infant seats and you are encouraged to bring your own. Children are not permitted to sit on their parent's laps. We can provide an infant seat if needed, provided you call us at least 48 hours before the tour and inform us of the age and weight of the infant.
  • Charts can accommodate folding wheelchairs for guests who can transfer into the cart on their own or with assistance. Please note that there is no ramp access, and we are unable to accept motorized or non-folding wheelchairs due to vehicle limitations. Wheelchairs are not provided. If bringing your own, please let us know at the time of booking. All requests are subject to availability.
  • The itinerary and its order of stops are subject to change at any time. Monuments visited may change due to local road or monument closure which are beyond our control. Most travelers can participate
  • Tour covers the National Mall in an all-electric vehicle. We're committed to reducing the environmental impact of vehicle-based tourism in Washington DC, which makes up the vast majority of tours given in this city. Make a "green" difference by seeing the Mall via electric transportation!

Wow!! We would have given this tour 6 stars if we could. Our tour guide, Dave, was so knowledgeable and spun the stories to weave Chicago's history so clearly for these East Coast visitors. Loved the mixture of interior and street landmarks. We learned so much and will be sure to recommend this tour to others. A true highlight activity of our visit to Chicago.

Molly was fun and besides AMAZING seafood, we visited historical sites and learned more about Boston’s rich history. She even made changes to the tour to avoid places that we had already been! We do food tours all over the world and this one is at the top of the list.

Nice way to see several monuments.

Enjoyable trip and our guide was super friendly but there are several photo opportunities that seem to be zipped on by that are not "monuments" to speak of. We had great weather so it made it very pleasant during tge ride. Its an easy way to see several monuments without tge walk.

Great very Knowledgeable Guy!

Lorenzo, the guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic so he made the experience great. Also, I was a bit late for arrival and he texted and waited for me which I really appreciated. He had also lived in Hawaii, my home state, so we had something in common. Finally he dropped me off at a restaurant after the tour was finished so I didn't have to walk half a mile.
