Highly recommend Sally and Chris - a remarkable team! We enjoyed a very well informed tour with some good laughs and a highly skilled driver. This tour was a great way to kick start our DC tour, giving us an overview of monuments, memorials and some history. Sally was attentive, keeping all on her tour as safe as possible as we did witness the mishaps of others. Chris is an excellent driver with photography skill - captured a great photo of our family with the Capital in the background.
