Take a grand, day-long tour of the best parts of Washington. See the country in between, and learn from your guide at each of the stops and monuments.

Begin with early morning pickup from The Manhattan at Times Square Hotel, located between 51st and 52nd streets. Board the bus, and cross through the Lincoln Tunnel under the Hudson River to depart from Manhattan.

Next, pause for breakfast in Delaware before continuing to Washington for the day. Proceeding with our journey through parts of Maryland and its major city, Baltimore, we'll eventually arrive in Washington, D.C.

Then, begin the Arlington National Cemetery visit. Guided by an expert, we'll stroll among the graves to reach John F. Kennedy's tomb. Later, we'll depart for the Iwo Jima monument to take photographs.

Crossing the Potomac River into Washington D.C., we'll arrive at Constitution Avenue, home to significant buildings such as the State Department, the Peace Institute, the National Association of Pharmaceuticals, and the Albert Einstein Monument.

Next, at Washington Memorial Park, visit the Memorial Park, exploring The Korean War Memorial, President Lincoln Memorial, and the Vietnam War Memorial. Continuing through the Reflective Pool, we'll see iconic monuments like the "World War II" Memorial and the Washington Obelisk.

Pass by the OAS, the International Red Cross, the Vice Presidency, the US Treasury Department, and along the White House gardens, where you'll have time for photos. Then, get ready for The White House.

Adjacent to the main avenue, find various government buildings, including the Treasury Department, Department of Justice, FBI, National Archives, National Gallery, and National History Museum, until reaching the Museums zone. Here, you'll have free time for lunch, Capitol photos, and museum exploration.

Finally, head back to New York City. On the return journey, we'll make a brief midway stop. Depending on the weather, we'll make an additional stop for panoramic views of illuminated Manhattan before arriving in New York City. Capture the iconic skyline before concluding the tour.
