We started our 2 1/2 day visit to DC with the 90 minute tour. It was an excellent way to get an overview of the area and at least see places we would not be able to visit.

Our funny, friendly, and well-informed guide narrated literally every second of the trip, taking time to point out and describe dozens of points of interest. Wasn't sure how my wife and 14 y o son would react but they both said they loved it. The other families and young couples also enjoyed it. We'd do it again or maybe take a variation of the same tour, e.g., at night.
