DC Monuments and Capitol Hill Tour by Electric Cart

Overview
See Washington DC’s major sites in a fun, unique way – aboard an electric cart! As you explore Capitol Hill, see famous monuments and landmarks including the White House, US Capitol Building, Jefferson Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument, Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Smithsonian and more. These eco-friendly, all-electric vehicles let you enjoy the fresh air while admiring great up-close views of DC's major locations and off-the-beaten-path areas. You'll also hop off your cart to explore some areas by foot.

This is a small group experience, with each electric cart limited to a max of 7 people. Whilst we do our best to seat groups together, we aren’t able to guarantee to seat together and at times groups may be asked to sit on separate carts.

My partner and I recently did the Washington DC unveiled tour with Steve B. He promised the quickest 2 hours, and he delivered. Steve had so much knowledge about the sights he was showing us and was able to answer every one of our questions in depth. In addition he was more than happy to give recommendations on places to eat! Steve tried to personalise the tour as much as possible for our needs and at the end of the tour Steve dropped us right outside a museum we had expressed interest in visiting, instead of the standard tour end point. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone who only has a short time to spent in DC (like we did) but wants to get the maximum number of sights/monuments in in that time. Thanks Steve!

My husband and I along with our two daughters, ages 6 and 4, had a wonderful time on this tour! Our guide was Natalia and she was friendly, knowledgeable and awesome with our kids. The tour is an excellent overview of many of the main sights. The area is so large that we would not have been able to walk it all, especially with young kids. We drove by the Capitol, White House, Washington Monument, among many others. We had time to get out and walk around at the FDR memorial, MLK memorial and Lincoln memorial. Natalia was also kind enough to drop us off at our next location, which we really appreciated! We will have to make another trip to DC just to revisit all of these sights again in detail, as this was a great overview. We all had a great time but the kids especially, keep talking about the “little red car” being their favorite part of our time in DC. Highly recommend!

Three of us took the tour with Montie and thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. This is an excellent way to see a lot in 2 hours. Montie’s knowledge and enthusiastic personality made the tour both informative and entertaining. Highly recommend to first-time DC visitors.
