Discover Washington DC
Take in the Washington Monument, wonder at the White House and Capitol Hill, explore the Library of Congress and discover the epic Smithsonian museums. Although at the end of the day we love to balance out all that history in a fantastic craft beer bar or tucking into some of the country’s most exciting food.
Celebrate spring DC style
In late March and early April, the city is the setting for the National Cherry Blossom Festival, a fortnight of performances, exhibitions and events among a sea of flowers. Thrifty travellers can enjoy plenty more free activities in the city.
A real treasure trove
The National Museum of American History, known to locals as 'America's attic', houses hidden treasures as diverse as Dorothy's ruby red slippers and the original Star Spangled Banner.
