About this tour
Trade Manhattan’s bustle for a day among the monuments and landmarks of the nation’s capital on a private Washington, D.C. sightseeing tour from New York City. With hotel or custom pickup, onboard Wi-Fi, and water, the long drive is comfortable and convenient.
In Washington, visit the U.S. Capitol, reflect at the Lincoln Memorial, and view the White House from a well-known vantage point. Walk along the National Mall, where the Washington Monument and Smithsonian museums shape the city’s grand civic landscape. Your English-speaking driver shares stories, history, and local tips at each stop, then leaves you free to explore attractions on your own. Drivers do not accompany guests inside museums or archaeological areas, and some stops may close for holidays, maintenance, or special events.
See Washington, D.C. at your own pace before returning to Manhattan in the evening. Book this private Washington, D.C. sightseeing tour for a full day of landmark views and independent discovery.

How this score is calculated
This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.
How the score works
- 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. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
