    3 routes and night time tour included. Easy to exchange print out and the yellow route actually started outside our hotel in the morning. Included stops at all the places we wanted to visit including zoo, White House, Arlington which made it quicker to get around. Night time tour was lovely (apart from rain) to see all landmarks lit up and White House Christmas Tree. Thank you will order again next time I travel.
