I heard about this tour from a friend and went out of boredom on a Friday afternoon. I am still stunned when I think about how much I enjoyed this walking tour. A goofy red-headed kid named Ben led my tour and he was hysterical. The stories they tell are interesting and funny, and I am honest when I say... more

We took this tour while in DC last week. It was very fun, informative and light-hearted. A great way to see all of the war memorials and learn a little about them. Unfortunately, we overheard our guide saying they will not be in business much longer. He said he is going to law school, and there are only two of... more

I've lived in DC for seven years now, and this tour was by far one of THE BEST things I've ever done in this city. The next day I recommended it to my friends, my colleagues, and even the Admissions officers at GWU. Ben was hilarious, informative, and passionate. He really makes you fall in love with history (and I'm... more

I only need 3 words to sum up my experience on this tour: "Hi - Lar - ious"! Our tour guide Ben was everything we could ask for: smart, hip, funny, and engaging are just a few words that immediatly spring to mind. I live in the DC area and have taken a few different tours with visiting friends and... more

I have been many places and have been on many tours, but DC by Foot is bar far the best tour I have ever taken. The guides were friendly, adorable, knowledgeable, and fun! A large group met just beyond the Washington Monument where the guides were very easy to spot by their bright orange hats and their DC by Foot... more

After reading all the reviews on tripadvisor, I was really expecting something much better. We took the 6pm in mid October. There must have been at least 50-60 people in our group. The guide practically ran through the entire 1.5 hours because he was trying to beat the sun. You couldn't hear everything he was saying unless you kept up... more

We read about this tour on Trip Advisor and since it's rated #!, we decided to give it a try. We went on a 2 pm tour on an October weekday, so it wasn't crowded, maybe 15 people or so in our group. It was lots of fun and very informative. Okay, yes, some of the jokes were a bit... more

We are a family of 5 from Australia including 17 and 15 year old boys and a 10 year old girl. We took this tour after reading the reviews on this site and it lived up to our expectations. We were lucky to have a fairly small group with Brody as our guide. My three kids all enjoyed it especially... more

These guys are great!!! I live in the N. Va DC area and have walked the monuments many times with friends and famiily in town. DC By Foot was a great new way to learn about the monuments. I have read some of these reviews and they honestly baffle me. If you are looking for a fun up beat group... more
