Description:
Explore the halls of our nation’s history and see the memorials that pay tribute to early presidents, fallen soldiers, and inspired citizens. Your all-encompassing tour of the capital puts you face-to-face with the documents and buildings that symbolize our patriotic past.
Begin your guided journey as you enter the Library of Congress and stand beneath its grand dome, encircled by endless stacks of books and historic texts. At your next stop, skip the lines with reserved access to the US Capitol Building where you view a fascinating film about our government’s founding. Wander between the Senate and House of Representatives where you might just see lawmaking in action.
Ride a shuttle to reach the area’s reverential sites. Reflect at solemn installations like the Iwo Jima, Vietnam, FDR, Martin Luther King, and WWII Memorials, catching glimpses of the Washington Monument and White House along the way. At each site, including the Jefferson and Lincoln Memorial, take the chance to examine them up close as your trip leader offers colorful insight into their meaning and construction.
Depending on the season, enjoy a scenic cruise down the Potomac with a boxed lunch, or some free time at the Pentagon City Mall where you can shop or dine on your own indoors.. Finish your day at the exhibits of the National Archives, where you can get inches away from treasured pages like the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence, and the U.S. Constitution.
