Vehicles include two rear-facing seats, with seating assigned on a first come, first served basis at the meeting point.

  • 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.

We did an early morning tour with Lorenzo. This was definitely the highlight of our quick stop in DC on the way home from Spring Break. Lorenzo was very knowledgeable and we had a great time. The 7 am tour was perfect for photos of all monuments and buildings! There was no one around and traffic was minimal!

This tour moved very...

This tour moved very quickly and allowed for several quick stops. This was okay for an overview, but we would have preferred a little slower pace.

Delightful. Informative. Meaningful. Yet relaxing.

Delightful way to learn just enough to make you want to come back and delve deeper in places that capture your interest in the daytime. Korean War memorial is an absolute must at night, though. It was a great way to end a day on our feet and see the city lights.
