Handicap unfriendly, unresponsive Would not allow collapsible (size of stroller) small wheeled seated walker on bus. Waited another half hour for promised alternate transportation only to be refused access again. Told to wait another half hour!! My wife, I, and my grandson wasted the day (our cost $1000/day for hotel, air, & food + $148 tickets) waiting for bus. Ended up hiring cab to get back to hotel. Tried to call seven times over 2 days with no live response. Emailed customer service no response. Very frustrating

Very long wait On our very first stop it took the bus 45-50 minutes to arrive. It was difficult to talk to anyone when we called the number provided. We were not the only customers waiting either. Once we got on the bus, it was not organized and no information was provided about the sites. We have gone on a couple other tours and they are always informative and enjoyable. This was not the case this time. Very disappointed.

The concept is great, BUT The concept is great, a bus that stops at every important display in DC. Unfortunately, a company that is thrilled to collect your money, but not willing to put any of it back into maintenance. The first bus had no AC working and the air suspension system was gone. So the chassis was setting on the frame and rode like a buck board. The driver had no idea what an air suspension was, so probably never reported it. So, the next bus we got on had no room up top and the AC was not working downstairs, so it was an oven (in May no less, wait until J J & A). Out of six deferent busses we got on, only one had the AC working. The old relicts they called busses were well past their time. Except for one, the drivers were rude and offensive.

Substandard, deceptive On Tuesday we took the bus tour starting at L’Enfante. Your person selling tickets assured me after I asked, that I would get the same price as online. When my credit card was processed there was a significant increase in price. When I questioned this she told me to hurry and get on the bus. She lied to me about the difference in price. Also on board there was no sign warning about the tree branches. I did hear the warning on the recording after I was hit in the face by branches. Additionally there were no seat belts on top causing my wife to hold onto our granddaughter. We have taken many big bus tours and this is my first negative experience

NY and Philly definitely WAY better than DC Took the Big Bus in NY and Philly. Service was great and the staff were fun and professional. However, DC was POOR. The only positive comments include: great customer service by Gregory at the Union Station and nice evening tour with Sam (guide - extremely knowledgeable) and Gloria (driver - always smiling). Don't usually read comments but after scrolling through some, I could agree with them. First bus at Arlington is noted for 9:37am on the brochure. App shows 9:31am. We just missed it at 9:33am. First bus broke down but a replacement bus was there within 10 minutes. Definitely not clean buses in DC and without AC for sure.
