Activity itinerary

U.S. Capitol

  • 15m
United States Capitol Grounds (West Front – National Mall Side) From the National Mall, you stand before the Capitol’s grand West Front, where the iconic dome rises above the sweeping lawn. As you look up at this symbol of American democracy, you’re taking in one of Washington’s most recognisable and powerful views.

Jefferson Memorial

  • 25m
As you walk towards the Jefferson Memorial, you see its white marble columns rising along the edge of the Tidal Basin. Inspired by ancient Roman architecture, the memorial honours Thomas Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of Independence and the nation’s third president. As you stand beneath the open-air dome, you’re surrounded by his words on liberty and freedom — a powerful reminder of the ideals that helped shape the United States.

Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial

  • 20m
Step into the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, and walk through the “Mountain of Despair” and stand before the towering “Stone of Hope,” featuring a powerful sculpture of Dr. King. Surrounded by walls inscribed with his words, you reflect on his leadership in the Civil Rights Movement and his enduring message of justice, equality, and hope.

Korean War Veterans Memorial

  • 15m
Take in the sight of 19 stainless steel soldiers advancing cautiously across the terrain, symbolising those who served in the Korean War. Their ponchos and resolute expressions reflect the difficult conditions they faced. Close by, the Wall of Remembrance bears the names of those who lost their lives, offering a powerful place to pause and honour their sacrifice.

Vietnam Veterans Memorial

  • 20m
As you approach the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, the polished black granite wall gradually rises from the earth, etched with the names of more than 58,000 service members who lost their lives or remain missing. The reflective surface allows you to see yourself alongside the names, creating a deeply personal and powerful experience.

Lincoln Memorial

  • 25m
Stand before the Lincoln Memorial, its towering columns and grand steps create one of Washington’s most iconic sights. Inside, the larger-than-life statue of President Abraham Lincoln sits in quiet reflection. From this vantage point, you can look out across the Reflecting Pool towards the Washington Monument, taking in a view that has witnessed some of the most historic moments in the nation’s history.

U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial

  • 15m
Take a short trip to Arlington, Virginia, and stop at the Marine Corps War Memorial, where you’ll see the powerful bronze sculpture of US Marines raising the flag at Iwo Jima during World War II. The larger-than-life figures capture a moment of courage, unity, and determination. Dedicated to all Marines who have given their lives in service since 1775, the memorial stands as a lasting tribute to honour, sacrifice, and commitment.

White House

  • 15m
Standing outside the White House, you’re viewing the official residence and workplace of the President of the United States. This iconic home has been the centre of American leadership since 1800 and remains one of the most recognised buildings in the world. From the gates, you can take in its elegant neoclassical design and reflect on the history that has unfolded within its walls.
