This was an impromptu tour. I decided on giving a chance as I was visiting in Arlington and the Washington DC area by myself while awaiting a next day flight out of Ronald Reagan Airport. I am disabled with limited mobility but i really wanted an opportunity to see with my own eyes many of the historical monuments and sites of significant American Pride. As a night tour is basically drive by touring it got me a close as able to see these remarkable American Marvels. The 15 minute stop at the Lincoln Memorial/ Washington Monument was absolutely breathtaking. Due to my disability the walk from the bus to the point of interest was a bit more difficult than I should have done on my own. But this was a once in a lifetime opportunity for me so I pushed my capabilities in order to see these amazing sites with my own eyes. I paid the price with a couple days of leg and spine pain from pushing a bit too much. But I have no regrets. Doing this tour gave me such a feeling if personal and independent accomplishment. I’m so glad I did not allow my disability the opportunity of witnessing these beautiful monuments honoring Great American Leaders.

Thanks devaughn
