Bi-Partisan Tour Company

Fantastic tour. Went through the whole DC area and gained some great insight on areas. We were not even rushed! I definitely recommend this place. We were the only ones on a Monday afternoon tour. No cancellation, it just turned into a private tour. He picked us up at our hotel as well!

I visited DC for the first time Spring Break 2016. I visited with my kids 7 and 17 and booked the Moonlight Tour. When we arrived I had a hard time getting a hold of Brian but after we spoke Brian was great. He picked us up early at our Capitol Hill hotel in a beautiful, new van. We felt like VIPs. The tour was fun, informative and a lot longer than 3 hours. He was great with the kids, walked around with us and showed us the special details and secrets of the monuments, which were absolutely breathtaking. Brian knows his city. This tour is awesome and I’m so glad that we didn’t book a giant bus tour. This was so special and one of the most memorable experiences of the entire trip. At the end of the tour he recommended and dropped us off at a restaurant near The White House which made the end of the night even more fabulous. I highly recommend this tour worth ever penny.

If it’s your first time in DC and want to try to see all the major memorials without the huge crowds, then book a night tour with Brian. We got to see so much and at night the town is lit up to perfection. The tour was one of the highlights our trip.

The EPIC evening tour was absolutely one of my favorite experiences in DC! The tour takes you to soo many monuments over 3+ hours. The van only holds 12ish people so it’s very small and the guide (Brain)was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable and not hokey like some guides can be. He took pictures for us and really tailored the tour to our desire! It was Thanksgiving weekend so our trio of girls were the only group and he called to tell us that he could start earlier or whatever worked out best for us and then picked us up from the location we had finished dinner at! This level of service he provides is unbeatable and the sight seeing is absolutely fantastic at night! Worth every penny and more!

This is by far the best tour company I have ever used and I have used many. Brian is a wonderful guide with endless knowledge of the area and super fun facts. He was timely, courteous, fun and tailored our trip to fit use. What more could you ask for in a guided tour. I can’t wait to go on the next tour guided by him and his company!!! Hope you like him as much as our group did!!!

This company’s van consistently parks illegally in a residential neighborhood with already very limited parking. Not a good business practice.

While waiting at Gallery Place for a seemingly mythical westbound X2 bus to show up, I saw the most peculiar thing: A couple of tourists were getting dropped off by a tiny, brightly colored electric car. Adorned with flags and streamers, a sign on it read «Free Tours.» I approached with more hope than I knew would be rational. «Could you give me a tour of H St NE» I asked? The happy driver shrugged and said «I’ve never been there, but hop on!» Lyz grabbed the front seat. I hopped in the back. We strapped ourselves in and off we went, waving at the now scowling (crazy?) old woman who had recently informed us that gimpy pigeons were the sole cause of Hurricane Katrina. Some thing about harbingers and gangrene…
Anyway, we merrily continued down H St, pointing at all the sights like quizzical pedestrians and grumpy drivers. The back seat faces backwards and the car is open air so you get a really great view of people trying to figure out what the hell you’re riding in and why you aren’t going any faster (the tour cars seem to max out a bit under the speed limit). It’s a goofy thrill and oddly entertaining. the cars only seat 3+ a driver, so it’s a very private public tour. You become the center of attention. I waved. Sometimes like the queen, sometimes like a rock star. It was good.
Lyz and I had a great time. The driver works for tips alone, so we gave him $ 10 for the tour back to our neighborhood. We looked up the website at home and found out that they also let you rent the cars!!! I want one. I really do. If you happen to see one of these out and about, I highly recommend taking a ride… even if only for a few blocks. They do give real tours, but the novelty of riding around on one of the silly cars is worth a good tip by itself.
