• Q7673BEcarlr 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Personal tour by guide - Michael Rupert Interesting and informative. Michael made a complex, multi-faceted battle understandable in 2+ hours. Many on-site discussions, with lots of color background to understand the context of the battlefield events. Read more Written September 22, 2020
• L4312WWnicolef 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles DC is beautiful at night! James was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot along the way. He was friendly and accommodated our wish to find the name of a loved one on the Vietnam wall. My 7 year old daughter was with us and James was able to keep her engaged. DC is beautiful at night! Highly recommended. Read more Written August 2, 2020
• Departure49555117447 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Very Interesting and thought provoking I like that they do not try to side step the complicated relations between slaves and owners, and how cruel slavery was. Read more Written January 7, 2020
• Kari M 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Great! Bought tickets through Viotar for a great price - $70 for three of us. It was really easy to find the bus at Union Station. I'd say to get in line early, though, to make sure your group sits together. We did but others did not. The tour was a little longer than expected, which was fine! Stops at the White House, WWII Memorial, MLK Memorial and the Lincoln Memorial for about 20 minutes each. Beautiful night, highly recommend! Read more Written December 28, 2019
• Geo89_12 0 contributions 3.0 of 5 bubbles Disappointing Dirty bus, heater barely worked on a cold December evening, very hard to understand the driver, each stop he just said ok go explore while he sat in the bus. Overall a poor experience. I'm glad I had the black Friday promo code to save 50% on the ticket otherwise it would have been a waste of more money than it already was.

• mselvis13 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Avoid this company, total scam. I pre booked our 2 day tour, weeks in advace. I spent thousands to get us to DC. When we arrived at Union station to check in for our tour, we were told they had cancelled our tours. The manager was not there. Rep at "service" counter was no help. Refused to book us on alternate tours or refund our ticket price. Our vacation was totally ruined. Gray line Mertz had my email, never notied me the trip cancelled. Never received a refund. Had to contact my credit card company to remedy Read more Written December 20, 2019
• Bonnie R 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Great Day! We thoroughly enjoyed our Gray Line tour of Mt. Vernon and Arlington. In addition our guide and driver, Herbert, took us through the quaint village of Alexandria and stopped at Christ’s Church where we were able to sit in George Washington’s pew. We were given priority entrance into Mt. Vernon and had a great lunch in their restaurant. We were in time to see the changing of the guard at Arlington Cemetery and our final stop was the Iwo Jima Memorial. Our guide provided numerous interesting stories and highlights throughout the day and we would recommend this tour to everyone. Read more Written November 16, 2019
• ireneb908 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Night tour We were in DC for the evening and at the last minute we decided to do this tour. We called to find out where exactly to meet in Union Station. She was very friendly and gave precise instructions.. Me. Herbert was our tour guide and driver and was very knowledgeable and kind. We waited a few minutes for passengers who had gotten lost snd by the end, we had about 17 people in our group. The tour lasted about 2 1/2 hours. Overall a good experience if you have limited time in DC. Read more Written November 11, 2019
• JaneDontNo 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles See Washington DC Historical Memorials at night! Awesome views of historical memorials during the evening twilight. Our tour guide Herbert provided commentary littered with interesting facts about each memorial and the historical figure it represented. I highly recommend this tour for anyone with limited time to visit and a desire to see some of the most famous sites in our nation's capitol city. Well worth the price!

• razorface50 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Such an historical and meaningful tour! This is another guided tour that I recommend. What history, what scenery! Having a ticket for this tour will get you ahead of the regular lines waiting to get in Mount Vernon! Wayne was a fantastic tour guide and provided so much information. On the way to Mt Vernon, we stopped by Christ's Church - what a treat to such an historical site! And Mt Vernon will not disappoint! Thomas Jefferson was way ahead of his time!

• BILLB47 0 contributions 4.0 of 5 bubbles A Look Back Into History As part of Christian Tours we stopped at Monticello. I knew that Thomas Jefferson was an author the of the Declaration of Independence, but was not aware he was an inventor. Grounds are beautiful and staff are friendly and informative. Was also not aware that Jefferson was opposed to slavery but did not free his own slaves. Our time was limited and we did not have ample time to eschew all the beautiful scenery. Overall, visiting Monticello gives you an appreciation for what our forefathers (as flawed as they may have been) did for us. Read more Written October 6, 2019

Mike loves DC, loves sharing his knowledge and loves working for the company. A trifecta for gray line and tourists alike. Read more Written October 4, 2019

America's Historic East with Extended Stay in Washington DC

Our tour guide, Barbara Buryiak, was exceptionally knowledgeable.She was always pleasant and was able to navigate some issues that popped up during the tour—i.e. road closures to certain areas, navigating the fact that the Old Town Trolley does not run on July 4 in DC, getting us some extra site seeing opportunities (the church at Gettysburg for one) and getting those of us who went on from Philadelphia to Washington DC a new hotel when the Capital Hilton claimed we did not have any reservations—which Barbara knew should not have been the case as she had seen the rooming list at the beginning of the tour which stated that 13 folks would be returning to the hotel, spending July 3 and 4 there. She also provided us some “extras.” She knew the value of the communication and was always very positive.
