Experience the stunning beauty of the architecture and memorials of Washington, D.C. lit up after dark.
You’ll begin the tour at the U.S. Navy Memorial, then board the luxury, late-model tour bus and make yourself comfortable before we head off to iconic attractions, including the White House, the Korean War Memorial, and the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial.
Each building and monument features a special illumination at night. Hop off the bus and explore the memorials with your guide, taking advantage of multiple photo opportunities. The full shimmering skyline can be seen at the start and end of your tour, including views of the twinkling Tidal Basin and Thomas Jefferson Memorial.
For a more exclusive experience, upgrade to our convertible/glass top vehicle which serves a smaller group and provides fresh air and uninterrupted views!

Lots of walking; sister-in-law was unable to participate & sat on bus for 3 hours! Would like a refund for inaccurate description

Excellent night tour with Elvis and highly recommend the open top bus upgrade as it was smaller and fewer people per tour guide.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and had everyone laughing as they learned. I've been to D.C. several times and still learned so many things.
