Description
Conquer the Smithsonian "Big 3" Without the Fatigue
Are you looking to see the best of the best without the exhaustion? Our expertly curated, small-group highlights tour shows you exactly what you need to see across the top Smithsonian museums in just 3 hours, instead of 3 days. Best of all, we handle the logistics by including guaranteed, reserved timed-entry passes to the National Air and Space Museum.
Your journey begins at our welcome center (400 7th Street NW), where you'll meet your expert guide and set off to explore the highlights of:
National Air and Space Museum (Entry Included): Witness the history of flight and space exploration. Get up close to the original 1903 Wright Brothers' Flyer and real space command modules.
National Museum of Natural History: Explore the wonders of our world. Stand beneath towering dinosaur fossils and marvel at the legendary, "cursed" Hope Diamond.
National Museum of American History: Uncover the relics of the nation's past. See personal items owned by George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, alongside iconic pieces of American pop culture.
As we transition seamlessly between the museums, your guide will share the wild and fascinating history of how the Smithsonian Institution came to be.
(Please note: To provide the best experience, the exact order of the museums visited may vary).
