Guided Tour of Washington DC
After meeting up by the US Navy Memorial, we'll begin our guided tour of Washington DC, heading towards the United States Capitol. We'll pass by the National Archives building, home to historic US documents like the original Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
Having admired the façades of the Newseum, the Canadian Embassy, and the National Gallery of Art, we'll reach the Capitol building itself, which houses the United States Congress. There, we'll stop to enjoy the panoramic view of the Smithsonian Museums, the largest museum complex in the world, and the Washington Monument, located on the famous National Mall.
We'll then see the city's beautiful botanical garden and pass by the Ulysses S Grant Memorial, the Robert F. Kennedy Department of Justice, and the FBI building before arriving at the emblematic White House, the official residence and place of work of the US president. We'll enjoy a leisurely stroll past the Eisenhower Executive Office Building and Lafayette Park, admiring monuments like the World War II Memorial and the American Red Cross National Headquarters along the way.
Continuing onwards, we'll see the Martin Luther King Jr Memorial across the Tidal Basin, and we'll have the opportunity to climb the steps of the Lincoln Memorial for a close-up view of the iconic statue of the American president. Another 5 minute walk will bring us to the moving Vietnam Veterans Memorial, before we visit the Thomas Jefferson Memorial.
Our three hour tour of Washington DC's most important monuments and landmarks will come to an end back at the US Navy Memorial at around 1 pm.
