What you can expect

Includes a boat cruise and a reserved entry into the US Capitol Building and National Archives Building!

Your VIP experience begins at Neptune Fountain in front of the Library of Congress Thomas Jefferson Building at 68 First St SE, Washington, DC 20004

Your next stops are the White House from the Ellipse, also known as President's Park South, the United States Capitol grounds, and the National World War I and World War II Memorials.

Along the way, you will see the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, the Canadian Embassy, the National Gallery of Art, the headquarters of the American Red Cross, the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), and the Organisation of American States (OAS)—just to name a few sites. Onward, to the Jefferson Memorial.

Once you have marvelled at the Jefferson Memorial, we will visit the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial just across the Potomac Tidal Basin.

On the walking segment of the tour, you will stop by the Korean War Veterans Memorial, and via a nice stroll along the tree line, you will emerge in front of the Lincoln Memorial and Vietnam Veterans Memorial.

For a unique experience, in summer, this tour offers a leisurely cruise on the Potomac River (Seasonal: April 1 to October 15) with your guide, who will answer any questions you might have. The tour price includes a boat cruise, and tourists will have the opportunity to purchase lunch at one of several waterfront restaurants in the summer. In winter, instead of the seasonal boat cruise, you'll experience a scenic bus tour through Virginia, visiting the Pentagon and other major memorials along the way!

Second to the last stop is the Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) Memorial, which will take you back in time to the years 1933-1945.

For the final stop, we’ve arranged reserved access to the National Archives Building!
