Due to Covid, our school district cancelled their annual 6th grade field trip to DC (a 25 year long tradition) so we decided to do it on our own! Many buildings/museums were closed and we were unable to get timed tickets, so we opted to do a tour so we could maximize our time in our nations capitol. Our guide was entertaining, knowledgeable and provided details that were new to us and we've been in DC several times! Highly recommend Viator - have taken tours with them in several cities and countries and always five star experience.
