Smithsonian Institution Building

Stop outside of "The Castle", the original Smithsonian Building and learn about the founder, John Smithson. Find out why he donated his estate to the United States although he'd never stepped foot on American soil during his life... (We will not enter The Castle)

We'll spend much of the tour riding along the National Mall where your guide will point out Smithsonian Museums and orient you with "America's Front Yard".

Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden

Pass by the Hirschhorn Museum

Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History

Ride by Natural History. Plan to pop in during your DC stay to see the Hope Diamond!

National Air and Space Museum

This museum is one of the world's most visited! Stop in while you're in DC to find out why!

National Gallery of Art

Ride between the East and West buildings. Which would you rather see? Classic art or Modern art? Your guide can point you in the right direction!

Take a short break here (we don't want you to get "Segleg"!) and learn about the famed Civil War general.

U.S. Capitol

Stop outside the US Capitol Building and learn about the design and function of the site where members of the House and Senate convene. Do you know who sits atop the Capitol? What does it mean when the flags are flying? (We will not go into the Capitol)

Lincoln Memorial

Your guide will tell you all about the memorial dedicated to our first President before you climb the steps to see Abe sitting atop and take in the sweeping views of the entire National Mall.

Korean War Veterans Memorial

If you visit without a guide, you'll likely miss much of the symbolism hidden behind the memorial dedicated to "the Forgotten War".

My daughter (16/hard to please😝) and I did the Segway night tour of the mall. It was just perfect! The weather was warm and humid and the Segway’s helped create a breeze and kept us comfortable. Absolutely the BEST and quickest way to see the Mall!!!!! We only had two days to catch the highlights of DC. Alli was our guide. She was very sweet and patient with lots of good information. She took pictures of us and we had so much fun!! By far my daughters favorite thing we did in DC!!! And I’d definitely recommend this tour!!

My tour guide was Calle and she was wonderful. I got to see all of the national mall except the korean war memorial and world war 2 memorial. It was a wonderful way to see the major sites without walking the whole mall.

We did the Segway tour with Keely and I feel so lucky that we got her. She was full of great knowledge and fun facts about the sites we visited and had such a clear way of communicating. It really made all the difference because a couple in our group were English as a second language, but they had no trouble understanding her. Aside from all great info she gave, she also had really solid practical tips for getting around town and some great food and drink recommendations as well. She looked after our group so well and it seemed like she really cared. Id be happy to go on tour with her again! Thanks Keely!
