Private D.C. Tours Reviews

Curious to know what our happy customers think about Washington Walks tours? We've been featured in Travel + Leisure and have pages of 5-star reviews on Trip Advisor.

"David led an excellent tour of Eastern Market/Capitol Hill for my undergraduate class. No question the students posed stumped him—and he wowed them (and me) with intriguing details about the sites around us. Logistics were seamless, as well: Washington Walks was responsive, flexible, and within our budget. Really a great (and Covid-safe!) way to kick off a semester-long course on the city and to get my students geared up to keep exploring!"—Professor Meredith Weiss, SUNY Albany
