What your child’s day will look like

Our small-group walking tour includes tickets to the top of the Washington Monument, so you don't have to wait hours in line at 7am for same-day tickets! Let us explain the history, symbolism, & stories behind the memorials on the National Mall! While encouraging reflection & respect, we keep the tour engaging & fun. On this tour, we will explore • Lincoln Memorial - see the famous statue, hear about our 16th President, see where MLK, Jr. stood to give the "I Have A Dream Speech." • Reflecting Pool - where Forrest Gump ran through to see Jenny. • Vietnam Veterans Memorial - hear the stories behind the wall of names of those killed and missing in action. • Korean War Veterans Memorial - see the 19 statues representing servicemen. • MLK Memorial - honor our Dr. King at the newest memorial on the Tidal Basin. • WWII Memorial - find Kilroy hidden amongst the columns honoring the states and territories. • White House - see the south lawn of the White House where Marine One lands.
