Washington DC Monuments Open-Air Sightseeing Minibus Guided Tour
Overview
Experience D.C. as day turns to night on this intimate sunset, day and moonlight tour, limited to just 12 guests max for a personalized vibe.
You’ll ride in a unique, 360-degree open-air vehicle offering completely unobstructed views and a refreshing breeze. We’ve got you covered for any weather: a protective sunroof shields you from the daytime sun, clear roll-down covers keep you dry if it rains, and the overhead design still lets you look up and stargaze as the night unfolds.
Unlike tours that just drive past, we actually stop and let you step off to explore and take photos at the WWII, Vietnam Veterans, FDR, and MLK Memorials. Between stops, glide past the Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument, and U.S. Capitol, watching them transform into glowing beacons under the moonlight.
Led by an expert storyteller sharing insider history, this all-weather, day-to-night journey is the ultimate way to experience the capital.
