Washington DC, a Tailormade opportunity?

Well as you can probably guess I have been away for the past 10 days or so,  not on a cruise but doing a City Break to Washington DC. What an amazing city!


There is absolutely loads to do here and my feet are still aching; sightseeing, Museums, Arlington Cemetery and even the Zoo and it has the advantage of all the attractions being free!

We even went to Capitol Hill, you had to go through security to get in but again guided tour all free, you would not get any of that at home would you?

I even got to stand on the spot at the Lincoln Memorial were Dr Martin Luther King made the famous 'I have a dream' speech.

The City itself is quite large, but the Metro is easy to use and priced relatively low, we did use a Taxi a couple of times and found these were more expensive than we expected. So the answer is to walk or take the Metro.

I found this place an amazing place to visit and was wondering if it could be added to the start or end of a cruise from the US? Well, New York is only 2 hours by train from Union Station, or Baltimore is not far up the road.

So we could book you on Cunard's QM2 from New York and add in a couples of days in Washington then time in New York; or go on Royal Caribbeans Enchantment of the Seas from Baltimore to Bermuda and spend some time in Washington.

To be honest the options with this are endless, which is why they are called Tailor-made cruise holidays, so just give me a call so I can tell you more about my break but then arrange a trip for you.
