Bus drives away\u003cbr/\u003eIt's the hottest bus tour in Washington.\u003cbr/\u003eBut it doesn't stop at the Washington Monument or the White House.\u003cbr/\u003eOn this tour, two former Cold War spies - one American, one Russian - lead dozens of spy buffs on a veritable treasure hunt of espionage sites around the U-S capital.\u003cbr/\u003eTheir message - espionage is everywhere and anyone is a target, particularly if you live in Washington, DC.\u003cbr/\u003eRetired F-B-I counter-intelligence agent David Major acts as the tour guide, alongside his former Cold War enemy, Yuri Shvets, a retired K-G-B spy. \u003cbr/\u003eTogether, they cover most of the major spy cases that took place in Washington over the past 50 years, slowing down and stopping at mailboxes, restaurants and houses.\u003cbr/\u003eOn the list of SpyDrive stops is Chadwicks, a bar tucked under a bridge in Georgetown where former C-I-A counter-intelligence officer Aldrich Ames handed over deadly information to the Soviets.\u003cbr/\u003eIt was here that Ames provided the names of 20 C-I-A and F-B-I sources - 10 of whom were subsequently executed by the K-G-B.  \u003cbr/\u003eThe bus slows at Au Pied de Cochon, a French restaurant in Georgetown where K-G-B defector Vitaly Yurchenko escaped from his C-I-A handlers, hailed a cab and went off to re-defect to his homeland.\u003cbr/\u003eThen there is R Street...The street Major calls \"spy street.\"\u003cbr/\u003eOn R Street is Dumbarton Oaks, the sprawling Georgetown gardens that served as a meeting place for Jonathan Pollard and his Israeli contacts.\u003cbr/\u003ePollard was a U-S Navy intelligence analyst, convicted in 1986 of spying for Israel.  \u003cbr/\u003eA few blocks away, the bus stops at an ordinary-looking mailbox.\u003cbr/\u003eBut as it turns out, this mailbox was a so-called \"signal site\" in one of the most damaging cases of treason in American espionage history.\u003cbr/\u003eIt was on this mailbox that Aldrich Ames left signals in chalk for his Soviet handlers.\u003cbr/\u003eBut despite the exciting stories, as the bus passes the former Soviet embassy, Yuri Shvets admits espionage is not nearly as glamorous as Hollywood makes it seem.\u003cbr/\u003eAs the two-and-a-half hour bus tour draws to a close, Major says he hopes he's left people with an understanding that while the Cold War may be over, espionage is alive and well and happening in your backyard.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex
