About this tour

Travel from New York to two cities central to American history on this full-day sightseeing journey. In Washington, D.C., visit the Iwo Jima Memorial, then explore the National Mall and Lincoln Memorial. Continue along Pennsylvania Avenue for exterior views of the White House and the U.S. Capitol, with time to capture photos of these landmark buildings.

After a lunch stop on the return north, continue to Philadelphia, the nation’s first capital. Visit Independence National Historical Park, see the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall, where founding documents were signed, and finish at the famous Rocky Steps outside the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The journey back includes a panoramic viewpoint with city views. An air-conditioned vehicle and onboard WiFi make the long-distance trip more comfortable, while a live Spanish-speaking guide brings context to the sights. Meet your guide outside the Riu Plaza New York Times Square Hotel and discover the landmarks of Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia in one trip from New York.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.75 from 20 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in New York City
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.9.
