Weekend Wonders – Washington, DC
Due to popular demand, our first Weekend Wonders trip will be to our nation’s capital! If you missed out on Jay’s DC trip, have never been, or even if you have been, there is so much to do and see in Washington, DC, a city that has been changing dramatically in recent years. And this is the perfect way to experience it! We’ll be staying right in the heart of it all, just steps from the White House and close to all of the famous monuments and museums. We’ll see all of the iconic sites, learn lots of history, take a lunch cruise on the Potomac and of course enjoy some good food. This is your last chance to visit DC with Cruise & Tour this year, and it is going to be a blast. But hurry – space is limited!

This morning our tour of the nation’s capital begins appropriately with an inside tour of the U.S. Capitol Building to see the Crypt, Rotunda and National Statuary Hall. From there we’ll hop on a coach for a full-day tour to all of the memorial heavy hitters (Lincoln, Jefferson, FDR, Martin Luther King Jr., World War II and Korean War). Between seeing the famous sites, we’ll board a boat for a scenic lunch cruise on the Potomac River. (B, L)
After breakfast, we’ll visit the White House for an inside tour (subject to change to alternate site based on approval). In the afternoon, we’ll explore historic Dupont Circle and Georgetown to hear tales, secrets and gossip of Washington’s former elite. Then enjoy free time to visit its many shops and restaurants before heading back to the hotel. (B)
Today is yours to discover DC as you wish. Later, enjoy a scrumptious farewell dinner with the group. Your Weekend Wonder is capped off with a night tour of the Federal Triangle to hear the area’s history (and ghost stories). (B, D)
