A very good tour. Brody had a good personality and told many interesting stories concerning the history of the monuments. The tour lasts about 1.25 hours and ends at the Lincoln Memorial. My only complaint was that the tour was a little fast paced. We did not get to spend enough time at the WWII memorial so we found ourselves... more

Travelling with my fellow Brits and our children, Ben & Brody provided an enchanting and delightful overview of DC's famous sites and monuments - whilst our knowledge of American history was rather lacking it was still fascinating to hear their entertaining stories - despite the little jibes about our English forefathers !!! Being British of course we can take it... more

We took our two kids, ages 6 and 8, and we all loved it. Ben was like the Pied Piper-- he had about 10 kids following directly behind him as he walked from location to location, all of them asking questions. At each stop he would tell stories and teach about the history of the monument. The content was highly... more

After reading all of the reviews on this website about D.C. by Foot, I was excited to try this tour out. On this trip to DC, it was my 4th time and my husband's 1st trip to the city. I had seen all of the monuments before, so I figured this would be more for him. Wow! Was I wrong!!... more

Ben and Brody were the type of tour guides you wish you had when you were a kid doing boring field trips. They're both dynamic, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and clearly having a blast doing what they do. An afternoon well spent; I'm looking forward to going back again with visitors from out of town. more

I was in DC just for a day so I thought I should see something while I was there. I decided to give this tour a try because of all the great reviews. We were there on April 19th and out tour guide was right where they said they would be at 6 pm. Our guide was Brody and he... more

Brody and Ben were quite a pair. I am a local and took their tour during the WalkTown DC weekend. They were funny, informative, and energetic. I will for sure be sending friends and family there way when I have visitors in town. more

A free tour that thrilled both Mom and Dad and 2 kids that are 5 and 10 is a great tour. Brody, our tour guide, was charming, intelligent, and full of fun and interesting facts. You could tell by his ability to field any questions that he hadn't just memorized a script. This guy is a true student of American... more

This was a great tour, I would recommend it for anyone visiting DC. Ben, our guide, was very entertaining and energetic and kept the tour going despite the sheets of rain! I enjoyed the random facts Ben shared about the different sites, much more interesting than standard tours. Don't forget your cash, you will want to make sure to tip... more

We went with a 9 year old and 11 year old who have no interest in history. They both enjoyed it, as did my husband and I. Brody mixes fun stories with history, has a great sense of humor and is very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone who likes to walk. more
