Experience the Best of D.C. VIP Bus Tour

Your day as a VIP begins with reserved entry into the U.S. Capitol Building, where you'll enjoy an guided tour inside. Highlights of the interior include the stunning Rotunda, the crypt, and the National Statuary Hall.

After your tour of the Captiol, we'll board the comfortable bus and head towards the most famous home in the world - the White House! Sights along the way include Newseum, the Canadian Embassy, the National Art Gallery, and the Eisenhower Executive Office Buidling. 

We'll stretch our legs with a walking tour inside the National Mall, where you'll see the Jefferson Memorial, the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, and views of the beautiful Tidal Basin. You'll stroll along the moving Korean War Veterans Memorial and Vietnam Veterans Memorial, before arriving at the Lincoln Memorial. Dedicated to our 16th President, the Lincoln Memorial provides panoramic views of the National Mall and the D.C. skyline from its steps, making for great photos. 

From March 15th to October 16th, this tour includes a river cruise on the Potomac River with a provided packed lunch onboard. In the winter months, we opt for an indoor market to enjoy lunch.

Your tour concludes with reserved entry into the National Archives Building. Home to original historic documents including the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, and the U.S. Constitution, it is the perfect way to round out your day as a VIP in our nation's capital.
