Guide was awesome and highly informative. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone. The Capitol has so much history and he did a great job of chronicling that!

Tour leader was so rude. We could not find the location and called the lead to find the place, but it wasn’t helpful and hanged up on us. We totally missed it! It was one day travel to see the capital and we missed it!

Dwayne, our initial tour guide, was knowledgeable, articulate, and enjoyable. Dwayne, by requirement, turns the tour over to another tour guide inside the Capitol. He too was incredibly knowledgeable and answered a wide array of questions from the group. An added bonus, he was cleverly humorous. We went on with Dwayne to the Library of Congress, where once again, he showed his skills handling a group and providing valuable information and insight. Well done!
