Not the combination of comedy and history we were expecting
This was not at all what we expected. Definitely not worth the $50 we paid as a couple. Our guide said he was a singer and a stand up comic, but he can't sing, we didn't find his attempts at jokes funny, and we didn't get much history at the various stops along the way. Further, his jokes assumed that his audience shared his personal like or dislike for various political figures. Not a good idea with an audience from varied backgrounds and various parts if the country. Worse, head kept asking us whether we were having fun...not something we would share on the spot. Best part of the day was discovering an exhibit at The Renwick, which we enjoyed immensely after we left the "comedy" tour.

Unique and Funny Tour, Peter B. San Diego
We did the Comedy Walks DC tour last month with a few friends and had an absolute blast! Our guide, Richard Siegel, kicked things off by singing to us right on the sidewalk--which set the perfect tone for a fun, hilarious, and totally unique experience. As we walked through the city, he shared great stories about both famous and lesser-known landmarks, all while cracking jokes and doing spot-on impressions. We were laughing the entire time. Highly recommend for anyone visiting DC who wants a tour with a twist!

Not What We Were Expecting
I hate to be negative but the tour was disappointing. Richard's impersonations were good, but his jokes, song parodies and comments were not historical or funny. They had more to do with his own experiences than with the monuments and buildings. For ex, at the WWII Memorial, he compared his past marriage to WWII. I would have asked for our money back, but I felt too bad for him to do so. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this .

First Rate--
Wow - What a unique & great tour.. I've been to DC many times, seen all the monuments - but Richard put a whole new spin on the experience. He was fun & engaging & really funny. Ask him to do his Bernie Sanders impression. In fact all his impressions were spot on. If you want to learn something, laugh and enjoy yourself with a real professional - this is the tour for you!!!

Fun afternoon!
I wasn't sure what to expect, but Richard quickly set the pace for a fun afternoon walk. I was expecting jokes, and there were several. What I didn't expect was impressions. Richard did impressions of Nixon, Carter, and Reagan at suitable stops on the route. He also added in a couple of parody songs. All in all It was an enjoyable walk which passed quickly due to Richard’s quirky but engaging humor.

Why this scores 56
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Comedy Walks© Washington D.C.: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Washington DC.
How much does Comedy Walks© Washington D.C. cost?
+
Prices start at $25 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Washington DC usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Comedy Walks© Washington D.C. take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Washington DC is not rushed.
Is Comedy Walks© Washington D.C. worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 30 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Washington DC, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Comedy Walks© Washington D.C.?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Comedy Walks© Washington D.C. suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Comedy Walks© Washington D.C.?
+
Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Washington DC can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Washington DC and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Comedy Walks© Washington D.C. start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Washington DC within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Washington DC?
+
Washington is the rare city where the headline attractions cost nothing and the scarce resource is access. Timed entry to the Smithsonian museums, Capitol and White House tours, and the night monument runs by bike or bus are what fill up. Our ranking rewards operators who secure the passes themselves rather than telling you to sort it out at the door. On Outty we rank every Washington DC experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Washington DC Small-Group Sightseeing Experience, Arlington Cemetery Small-Group Tour & Changing of the Guards, Washington DC "See the City" Guided Sightseeing Segway Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Washington DC?
+
Late March to April for cherry blossom, or September to November for cool museum weather. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Washington DC?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
