Big Bus Tours Washington D.C.

"I highly recommend buying the ticket for three days if you are in the capital for a week because on the day it is very difficult to do everything. I came for three days in the capital and they were very full, so I was happy to have a three day ticket that you can do the whole trip on the last day. What is more, it is preferable to print the card because if there is no battery then you are lost and cannot continue the trip with the bus. The ticket I took I received as a gift to do a panoramic cruise in Washington, the capital (unfortunately I didn't do it because I went the same way I got to the zoo for the beer and stayed until closing and then I said I would walk to see if I would make it but it was complicated and when I got to the place it was closed). The prices are not cheap, but it is an unforgettable experience and you see many sites, most of which are free at once. There is no doubt that it made my trip there more special. When you board the bus, you get audio headphones and a map of the trip"

"Love the music and informative information during the ride. Encountered really friendly staff, buses were clean and comfortable. Stopped at all the great locations; highly recommend as it beats driving downtown exploring on your own and finding parking!"

"Had the most wonderful night tour the last night before we head home. For my first time being in DC, this was definitely a highlight and I highly recommend taking the night tour. Everyone from BBT was very helpful before, during and after the trip. 10/10 recommend."

"(All photos taken from the upper deck of the sightseeing bus.) Even though the sights around D.C. are relatively close, the tour takes over an hour and a half because of the traffic and stop lights. At the time we took the tour, busses were arriving at pickup points approximately every 20-25 minutes. Often times, there was standing room only on the buses in between the more popular stops. I wish the recorded audio that plays during the tour was more informative and a lot less corny. It will take more than one day to explore all of the sights. The price was $60 per person."

"We took the nighttime tour and we had a great time. Spare 2 hours to be safe if you’re on a time crunch. Great way to see most DC sites with some great stories on the way. If you can get Maurice as your guide, you’ll have a great time. He went out of his way to make sure our toddler (the cutie on duty) was entertained. Make sure to tell him to watch his head if you're on the 2nd floor, those branches can come out of nowhere for someone standing. If you're in DC for a short time and want to see the highlights, this is the tour for you, TAKE THE TOUR"
