Not worth the money. The tour was actually largely self guided and in the capitol you did the tour that they offer. You could have simply went and got tickets at the capitol, a lot cheaper and had the same or better experience. Also, no signage from tour guide, as La Vacanza Travel farms this out to a third party. Don’t’ waste your time.

Dwayne was one of the best tour guides I’ve met (and our family has taken many tours in historical places around the world). His deep enthusiasm for the history of his hometown, passion for and excitement about American history, and his superb and accessible presentation style made him one of the next tour guides we’ve ever had. I wished we could have spent more time with Dwayne learning more - already plan to find him the next time I’m in DC! Thank you Dwayne!

Our guide was so knowledgeable and engaging. He was articulate and enjoyable. I left with more pride in my country. I never realize how beautiful these buildings are.

Our guide, Dwayne was great! That is all I want to say. Very informed, he has done his homework, It is annoying that U can’t submit this as is.
