National Mall Tour with Reserved Entry to Washington Monument
The National Mall is the most-visited national park in the United States. But with a myriad of routes available and comprising over 1,000 acres of green space in the heart of the nation's capital, it can be difficult to know how to make your own way across this storied expanse. On this National Mall tour, you'll follow an expert guide along a hand-curated path that will showcase some of America's most iconic and significant sites, including the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, the Lincoln Memorial, and so much more—unlocking their little-known stories and secrets as you go. Along the way, you'll learn which is the most-filmed monument in the park, follow Dr. King's footsteps as you stand where he delivered the "I have a Dream" speech that changed history, and wrap up your experience by taking in the incredible views from the top of the Washington Monument, with hard-to-get tickets secured in advance.
