What is there to see and do in Kensington?
You won't have to spend a lot to find places to visit in Kensington. You can budget for the top local attractions on your list, such as White House and Capital One Arena, and then make time for other wallet-friendly activities.

How can I get to Kensington and get around on a budget?
Scoping out the transportation options in Kensington can help keep you on budget. The most convenient airport is 8.7 mi (14.1 km) from the centre in College Park, MD (CGS). However, if that doesn't suit your budget, you can look into flights to Gaithersburg, MD (GAI-Montgomery County Airpark), which is 10.8 mi (17.4 km) away. Kensington may not have many public transport options to choose from so a car rental could be a reasonable alternative to see the area.
