As the capital of the United States, it’s no surprise that Washington, D.C. is packed with stories of incredible culture and history, but that’s not all that this vibrant city has to offer. Spend days immersing yourself in the world of American politics at the White House or on a tour of the US Capitol Visitor Centre, or perhaps opt to explore some of the other lesser-known attractions.
Bursting with fun activities for every kind of visitor, choose from a variety of cultural events, museums, tours, shows or spend your evenings sampling the delicious collection of dining options – from food trucks to gourmet restaurants. Walk down Embassy Row or simply admire the views of this incredible city from the top of the Washington Monument, something which is particularly spectacular in the evening.
