3-Day Tour of Washington & Niagara
3-Day Tour Details
Day 1: Washington
Early in the morning, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Washington to begin exploring the capital of the United States. Are you ready to learn about the country's history? Let's go!
Throughout this 4-hour tour, we'll visit the main monuments, streets, and avenues in the city. To start, we'll head to Lafayette Square, in front of the White House, one of the most iconic sites in Washington and the world.
After, we'll continue our tour passing by the Arlington National Cemetery, where we'll see the site where President J.F. Kennedy rests, along with several memorials, such as the Iwo Jima Memorial. At this famous cemetery, you'll see the changing of the guard at the tombstone of a former soldier. Afterward, we'll see the Pentagon from the Air Force Memorial. Don't forget to take a picture!
Our next stop will be to admire the famous Lincoln Memorial, where you'll see the Vietnam Veterans Memorial and the Korean War Veterans Memorial.
To conclude our tour of Washington on a high note, we'll visit the United States Capitol, a site where a president is elected every four years.
In the afternoon, you'll have some free time to visit some of the museums in Washington to continue enjoying the city at your own pace.
Day 2: Washington – Niagara
At the designated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel and leave Washington behind to set off to Niagara. We'll cross the the farming area of the state of Maryland and pass through the Allegheny Mountain Range, in Pennsylvania. After, we'll drive past the Appalachian Mountains and reach the Great Lakes.
We'll make a stop to rest and for you to grab some lunch. After lunch, we'll continue driving toward Niagara. Once we arrive, you'll have one of the best rewards after a long trip: a boat ride in the famous Maid of the Mist.
During this cruise, you'll admire Niagara Falls from its base and witness its beauty from a vantage point. You'll also have the chance to marvel at important landscapes such as the Bridal Veil Falls or the Horseshoe Falls.
Finally, we'll return to dry land and take you to the lookout area, where you can enjoy seeing the waterfalls at night at your own pace.
We'll end the day by taking you back to your hotel so that you can rest for the next day.
Day 3: Niagara – Washington
After enjoying a delicious American breakfast at the hotel, we'll pick you up and start the day by visiting the Niagara Parks. Here, we'll learn fun facts and witness the most beautiful landscapes of this natural border between the United States and Canada.
To do so, we'll visit a steep mountain belonging to the region's parks, where you'll see the waters of Niagara Falls flow along the rapids into Lake Ontario.
After admiring this beautiful natural environment, we'll return to the minibus and head to the Appalachian Mountains region. In the afternoon, we'll stop at Williamsport Penn so that you can grab a bite to eat.
Finally, we'll continue traveling toward Washington, where we'll arrive in the late afternoon.
