Hop aboard your air-conditioned minibus or van, and enjoy a convenient way to see the best of Washington DC, all lit up after dark. You can look forward to visiting 10 top DC monuments in one trip, including the US Capitol, White House, Ford's Theatre, Lincoln Memorial & Reflecting Pool, World War II Memorial, Washington Monument, Jefferson Memorial, Tidal Basin, Martin Luther King Jr Memorial, and Vietnam Veterans Memorial. In between stops, your driver-guide shares facts and stories about the city, and about the monuments' history, that you would be unlikely to discover on your own. Then, at each stop, have the freedom to disembark the vehicle, get up close to the landmarks, and otherwise explore on your own.
