We enjoyed our day with Alan touring Washington DC on a very cold day just after a snowstorm tried to shut down the city. Between the snow, President Carter’s funeral the day following our tour and the upcoming Presidential Inauguration, many venues around town were unfortunately closed. Alan planned around the closures and took us to Ford’s Theater, the National Archives and Arlington National Cemetery. After a short late afternoon break we met up with him again for a beautiful night time tour of the National Monuments. We enjoy eating at family owned restaurants vs. traditional chains, so for lunch he suggested a wonderful Chinese restaurant in Chinatown. It hands down was the best meal we ate in our short time in DC. We enjoyed our day and would recommend both of these tours to anyone wanting to experience the city at their own pace, while learning about the history of it all from a guide who loves to share his knowledge of US history.

My Wife and I had the pleasure and fortune of experiencing our first ever private tour. Alan went above and beyond our expectations and hopes of the tour, leaving an unimaginable first impression. Alan is funny, personable, creative, and an intentional investor into the bond with you and your company. The delivery of information is entertaining throughout and easy to digest. You may also find yourself in a game of *no pressure* historical trivia as you travel around. Look no further, book Alan!

We truly cannot recommend Alan enough if you are looking to explore Washington DC. My fiancé and I were going to DC for a few days and wanted to pack in as much as possible. Alan FaceTimed both of us prior to our tour to build the itinerary. He helped us decide what would be worth seeing with him. He even gave us recommendations of other things we could see during our stay outside of the tour. The tour itself was UNREAL… a day we will never forget. Alan is beyond sweet, accommodating, fun, and smart. We never met someone who knew more about history. His tour is great for any level of knowledge as he makes sure to meet you where you are at. For his knowledge of history, you would think he has taken this tour one million times. For his excitement and enthusiasm, you would think this is the first tour he has been on. Booking Alan was the best decision we made!!!

We did this tour as a family of 5 including 3 young adult children. We all agreed that it was a great day. Alan is a fantastic guide, incredibly knowledgeable and personable. He has an incredible wealth of knowledge of Washington DC which he shared during the day in an informative and very engaging manner. He truly brings the history of this city to life! The day ran seamlessly from pick up at Union Stn to drop off at our accommodation. Alan was flexible, making sure the itinerary worked to maximise the timings etc. throughout the day. The children all commented on not only how much they learnt during the day but how engaging Alan was. We couldn’t possibly have done what we did in the day with Alan on our own, nor appreciated what we saw in the same way. We would highly recommend this tour.

Booking private tour with Alan was an exceptional experience. We learned so much more than we would have exploring on our own or in a group tour. Especially, the anecdotes that Alan was able to share with us. We will definitely book again, a private tour with Alan the next time we visit Washington DC!
