Interior Buildings Tour of the Capital Dome
The All Day Washington, DC tour will take you to the area's popular monuments and museums and the Capital Dome.  

The DC in a Day Tour provides you with transportation to and from some of DC's most popular landmarks including Ford's Theater, US Capitol Building, and more. Along the trip to each of these locations, you'll also have the opportunity to view several historical sites from the motor coach including the Washington Monument, House and Senate Office Buildings, FDR Memorial, Library of Congress, US Botanical Gardens, National Gallery of Art, the Supreme Court and many more.

This tour lasts approximately 9 hours and includes a substantial amount of walking, so you'll want to be sure to dress appropriately and wear comfortable shoes. You will have the opportunity to pick up your own lunch at the American History Museum or a food court. Cameras and video cameras are permitted.  The tour is recommended for all ages and children ages 3 and up. If you're staying in a participating hotel, transportation to and from the tour meeting site is available.

Customer Reviews
We switched out of this tour and to the Mount Vernon/Tomb of the Unknown Tour because it was a lot like the Washington DC All Day Combination Tour

-gennaro gargano, mechanicville, NY
Wasn't what I expected. Missed the tour the first day due to traffic. Could not get to Union station on time. Signs in DC definitely need to be improved. Didn't even get to go to the visitors center at the White House. Road closed. Dignitaries present. Too much time allowed at most stops. Didn't get to see as many sights on the bus as expected.

-Steve Minkler, Winfield, MO
Nice tour. Recommend going to DC, getting a Metro pass, and visiting places yourself. The tour is nice in the sense of you hearing (while in the bus) historical facts) but you are not in the bus that often. Do it yourself.
