We recently did the 2-days tour to Washington. There was only a few people on the tour, but as there were several bookings in different languages, we got to hear everything 3 times which was quite annoying especially as there were 2 guides and the explanation came simultaniously. Philadelphia was quite okay, the amish experience was literally 30 minutes without any serious explanation about their way of life. Afterwards we went to Washington, but as the hotel was about 45 minutes away from the city itself, there was no chance to visit the city during the nighttime. The evening from 6pm onwards therefore was quite long. On the next day we had 15 minutes to get breakfast and once in Washington there was a marathon, which the guides seemed not to know about. After 1 hour of useless bus rides we got to see the monuments. At around 7pm the excursion finished off in Manhattan. The time could have been used much better and more efficient.

The object to be visited were so complete, and need more time to enjoy the tour privately. Fortunately we had a good Tour Guide who can translate into English in the middle of Spanish language.
