Really good, just a shame it was a very large group. As a solo travelling with only a few days in NYC, this was the best to manage to see Washington DC. Great amount of info and great guide.
Many thanks to our Guide Agustin and Driver Mario. We saw all important sights in Washington. Agustin shared his knowledge in a calm and understandable way. Of course the drive from NYC to Washington is very long. As a surprise of our 5h drive back we got to stop at an amazing viewpoint to get to see NY Skyline at night. Perfect ending!
La excursión merece la pena si quieres tener una visión general de Washington. El guía Alex fue bastante bueno, haciendo la visita amena. El trayecto en autobús es inevitable, pero es un autobús con todas las comodidades y paras a mitad de camino a la ida y vuelta para ir al baño o tomar algo. Fuimos a los mejores monumentos y tuvimos tiempo de hacer fotos. Lo único que nos decepcionó un poco fue que tanto La Casa Blanca como el Capitolio estaban cercados el día de la visita y tuvimos que tomar las fotos desde lejos (en el caso de la Casas Blanca la valla era densa y tupida y casi no pudimos hacer fotos). A la vuelta, paramos en NJ donde pudimos tomar unas fotos espectaculares de NY skyline de noche. Espectacular. Merece la pena la relación calidad precio para ir a ver Washington.
Super gute Tour. Jeden Dollar wert.
Alex und Agustin sind ein eingespieltes Team, das sich um seine Gäste kümmert. Das gut getaktete Programm deckt alles Wesentliche ab.
Everthing perfect!
Fantastico con Alex!!!
