What to expect

Step into the heart of American history on a guided small-group walking tour of Washington, DC’s most iconic landmarks. Upgrade to included reserved entry to the Washington Monument Observation Deck.

This immersive experience combines storytelling, history, and unforgettable views as you explore the National Mall in a small group with a professional guide. From soaring monuments to deeply moving memorials, this tour brings the past and present together in a powerful and engaging way.

Enter the Lincoln Memorial with its 19ft marble sculpture of Abraham Lincoln. Learn the meaning behind the 56 pillars and 2 Arches at the World War II Memorial. Hear the story behind the moving Vietnam Veterans Memorial. And walk amongst the 19 lifelike statues of soldiers on patrol at the Korean War Memorial.

Upgrade to include a hard-to-get timed-entry admission ticket to step inside the Washington Monument and take the lift to the Observation deck where you get a 360-degree view of the city with a unique, birds-eye perspective of the city's major buildings and monuments.
