GBPurchased a 2 day pass Purchased a 2 day pass. Observed the following: very old and ill repaired buses, such as leaking windows, mostly nonoperational headphone plug-in(s), dirty cracked seats and stained ceilings below, just to name a few. Also, noted an outdated U.S. history recording. Worse value for the price. Very disappointed!

GBFAILED to deliver as promised Purchased this tour because it INCLUDED the National Cathedral (green line). Stood @ stop 40 minutes. NO BUS. Called #, put on hold for 20 min. FINALLY, man on the phone said, "sorry, the green line stopped running last week...." - DESPITE my DIRECT questions on Nov 5 when I purchased the tickets. The Old Towne Trolley Co came by a few minutes later and GRACIOUSLY offered us a FREE ride to the Cathedral and we paid for a city bus/metro back. Buses were LATE, Commentary was poor/minimal/crude.

DKBig Bus won’t refund Due to an accident in front of the garage in Washington DC, caused that the bus service was suspended. The Supervisor said, that we with no problems could get our money back by making a request through the website. By now - more than 14 days after we send the application, The Big Bus Tours haven’t even made a reply !

GBDo not waste your money Do not waste your money. Tour bus stopped at Lincoln memorial for 15 minutes and that’s it!!! We drove by Martin Luther King memorial and Black Lives Matter plaza and the audio recording never mentioned anything about them. We sat on the top and was continuously ducking to avoid being hit by tree limbs. Save your money or we e DC another way!!!

GBNY 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.
