Washington City Break

Day 1  Arrive in Washington            
Arrive in ‘DC’ and transfer to your hotel. Settle in, and then head out for dinner in a neighbourhood restaurant.            

Day 2  Washington DC Unveiled      
Today you’ll see many of Washington’s memorials and monuments, all from the unique perspective of a battery-powered, electric vehicle. Starting and ending near the Smithsonian complex, you’ll enjoy a knowledgeable and fun commentary as you pass key attractions. This evening, enjoy cocktails at one of the many rooftop bars.            

Day 3  Museums      
DC is teeming with museums including the world’s largest museum complex: The Smithsonian. With 19 museums and galleries, including the newly opened African American Museum, there’s something for everyone. From natural history to space travel, admission to all is free. Later, perhaps visit the National Gallery of Art, full of preserves, collects and exhibits to better understand the USA’s works of art.            

Day 4  Neighbourhoods of DC        
Washington’s monuments and grand buildings are just the visible tip of this great cultural iceberg. With a flourishing food scene, live music and locals with a penchant for long weekend brunches, DC’s neighbourhoods are interesting and culturally diverse. From the hip bars in Adams Morgan and U Street to Historical Georgetown with its peaceful, tree-lined cobbled streets, the neighbourhoods are welcoming and easily walkable.            

Day 5  Depart Washington            
There’s time this morning to visit the monuments along the Mall before your transfer to the airport for your flight home.
