Great way to see the city.

Good way to discover the city and get around. They needed more trams in the Arlington cemetery because we had to wait a while for the next tram. When we got back to DC, it took almost an hour for the final trolley to pick us up. I would recommend doing this tour on your first day in town to get a lay out of the city.

The drivers were...

The drivers were wonderful, personable and knowledgeable! We were stranded at the Arlington drop off for over an hour with no communication available, an update on the website would have been more helpful. The wait times for stops were well over 20 minutes which cut out sites we were able to see by 1/2🫤

Hopping around DC

Overall, a good experience. Would prefer more signage at some of the stops, like the Lincoln Memorial stop could not tell where I should meet them. All the guys are very helpful.

HOHO + Arlington Cementery tour

This is a great way to see the city plus Arlington Cementery. Start early towards Arlington before you get to the other stops. One day is not enough though. Enjoyed the trip and all the tour bus drivers are very knowledgeable. Mind your time when going on stops.

Arrive before 2

It would be good to know if you don’t start the tour before 2 pm, you cannot do the Arlington Tour which is included in ticket price.
