Washington DC 3 Hour Day Tour

Washington D.C. is a singularly American city, the capital of both the United States of America and its seat of national power. The U.S. president lives here in a mansion, as do members of Congress and other officers in charge of one government branch or another 9The Washington Post is headquartered here).

On this 3 Hour Day Tour you'll experience some highlights of DC's 3-century history, beginning with a visit to a monument to George Washington himself erected by the French on the site where he took command at Yorktown (1781).

Next, you'll tour the White House and grounds, then see the House of Representatives and Senate in action, as well as visit a memorial to Martin Luther King Jr.

You'll conclude your day in Georgetown (a Colonial-era port town) with an exploration of Washington's role in American history as reflected in its architecture. The 18th century buildings you'll see are a stark reminder of how much this city has changed over the past two centuries.

Upon return to your hotel, you'll enjoy complimentary drinks and snacks.

The tour will be an hour shorter than the two-hour but longer than the short version. Generally, we schedule two daily tours of Washington Dc 3 Hour Day Tour (ListingID: 791128) and one tour for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In general, only three times a day we schedule four tours.
