What To Expect
Our small-group walking tour includes tickets to the top of the Washington Monument, so you don't have to wait hours in line at 7am for same-day tickets!
Let us explain the history, symbolism, & stories behind the memorials on the National Mall! While encouraging reflection & respect, we keep the tour engaging & fun.
On this tour, we will explore
• Lincoln Memorial - see the famous statue, hear about our 16th President, see where MLK, Jr. stood to give the "I Have A Dream Speech."
• Reflecting Pool - where Forrest Gump ran through to see Jenny.
