Washington, D.C. Ultimate Getaway

Independent 4-day Washington DC getaway with monuments and hop-on hop-off touring

, built around two included tours: a multi-day hop-on, hop-off sightseeing pass and the Monuments by Moonlight evening tour of the capital's illuminated memorials. Three nights' hotel accommodations are included, and rail fare is priced separately, added from any of more than 500 Amtrak stations at your chosen accommodation level. The operator points to the sights along the Washington Mall and Pennsylvania Avenue, the city's museums, urban parks, and gardens as places to explore during the day before the evening monuments tour shows the memorials lit up at night. This suits independent, history-minded travelers who want a few days in the capital with some structured touring built in alongside plenty of open time.
