Free admission
There’s much more to Capitol Hill than the US Capitol building that stands atop it. It is both the heart of the American government and a vibrant neighborhood at the geographic center of Washington D.C. From the Capitol Grounds—a lush landscape of sweeping lawns and more than 4,000 trees—to the Capitol Reflecting Pool and Congressional office buildings, there is much to see and do on the Hill.
Capitol Plaza, Capitol Hill, Washington D.C.

Four Hour Private customizable Washington DC Tour
13
I have lived in the DC Metro Area for more than 30 years. Those years were spent as a limo driver, chauffeur, and private tour guide. I have acquired a great amount of knowledge and experience about DC. My tours are noteworthy because they are very informative and interactive. There are no extra fees, complimentary bottled water is always available, and all of the tours are private. The vehicle is allowed drop-off access near the US Capitol Grounds and other points of interest. I am also very familiar with the restaurant scene in DC, which means I can give great dining suggestions. I aim to make sure every group has a memorable and wonderful experience in the city.
