  Full Itinerary

Finally, we take you past the famous White House before bringing you to the Smithsonian Museum of American History for the second leg of your journey through history.

Your local guide helps you boogie your way through American history starting with the Star-Spangled Banner and the origins of the National Anthem before dancing you past some of the world's most famous jazz, soul, salsa, and R&B tunes. Explore the importance of music and the hidden messages in songs that were used in political movements and times of struggle and you may discover that you've accidentally transmitted a secret code every time you've whistled your favorite tune.

Finally, you end your American history journey by discovering how past rhythms and beats have made their way into nightclubs, bars, and onto the radio with the invention of electronic music equipment. As an added bonus — we give you a chance to make a beat of your own! Who knows, maybe you're America's next top DJ!

Closure of sites: Peaceful demonstrations, a mainstay of life in Washington, may slightly alter routes, but they also add to the enrichment of the experience!

We take you back to the city's origins as we work our way to the beautiful Capitol Building and through the Smithsonian area. Next, we breeze past the Washington Monument, Tidal Basin, and the Jefferson Memorial before stopping at the FDR, MLK, and Lincoln memorials so you can hop out and explore on your own.
