4-Day Washington DC & Williamsburg Tour

Spend three days in Washington DC and a day in historic Williamsburg. This tour will allow you to explore the history and government of the United States. Discover how our nation came to be and how it operates today. Popular attractions on this tour include Arlington National Cemetery, Supreme Court, Colonial Williamsburg, and much more!

 

 

Arlington National Cemetery

Arlington national Cemetery is easily recognizable by the remarkably identical white gravestones throughout its grounds. A map helps you identify the grave sites for famous American heroes. Also the graves for two presidents, John F. Kennedy and William Howard Taft, are located in the cemetery along with the Robert E. Lee Museum. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is always a popular part of your visit to this memorable attraction, including the powerful changing of the guard.

Embassy Row Tour

Take a tour down the street where several countries' embassies are located.

Monuments and Memorials Tour

The Washington Monument is the tallest in the city, a tribute to George Washington’s unparalleled role in our history. You’ll love the history in its museum at the bottom and its amazing view from the top. You’ll immediately recognize the Lincoln Memorial since its image appears on our money, but nothing compares to seeing this imposing statue face-to-face, surrounded by Lincoln’s own memorable words. You’ll know the haunting black wall of the Vietnam War Memorial when you see it, but the figures of soldiers in the Korean War Memorial may be less familiar. Each memorial has several fascinating parts and each beautifully honors its heroes.

Ford's Theatre

As a living tribute to Abraham Lincoln's love of the performing arts, Ford's Theatre presents plays and musicals underscoring multiculturalism and highlighting the eclectic character of American life. With productions from September through June, Ford's Theatre is both a working theatre and a historical monument open to the public.

Capitol Hill Tour

It’s difficult to say what will fascinate you more about Capitol Hill, its stunning architectural design or its energy. After all, there’s a lot going on here on any given day. There are several hundred tile designs as just part of the beautiful detail in its interior, and older chambers are packed with history. Meet Your Congressman This exciting experience is one we set up for each of our D.C. tours. A face-to-face meeting with your own member of congress makes this Capitol experience even more thrilling and helps government truly come alive.

Supreme Court Tour

The Supreme Court is the highest court in the land. Visitors can watch an oral argument when the court is in session or enjoy regularly-scheduled lectures when the court is not in session.

National Archives

The National Archives is home to the original Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and Bill of Rights, as well as other historical American documents and records.

In the museum's Hands-on History Room, young visitors can explore American history with more than 30 special activities, such as operating a cotton gin and sending a message. In the Hands-on Science Room, kids can explore the scientific and social issues addressed in the museum. A new transportation exhibition (and the largest exhibition to open in the museum), America on the Move, explores the world of transportation, including real artifacts from historic Route 66.
