14 Best Things to Do in Washington, DC

"Why get stuck in gridlock or Metro delays when you could glide serenely along DC's Potomac River to your next vacation stop, with gorgeous views along the way? The Potomac Water Taxi connects Washington's bustling new Wharf development to three different locations: Georgetown, Old Town Alexandria in Virginia, and National Harbor in Maryland. These bright yellow boats depart throughout the day and are an easy, non-committal way to drift along seeing the sights (instead of booking a dinner cruise, for example). Two routes (Alexandria to Georgetown and the Wharf to Georgetown) offer an accompanying audio tour if you download the City Experiences App. Otherwise, relax and enjoy the ride." - Adele Chapin

"With its October 2017 debut, The Wharf has revitalized a mile-long stretch of the Potomac waterfront south of the National Mall. Come here to shop and dine; rent kayaks in summer or ice skate in winter; catch a concert at the Anthem (run by the 9:30 Club folks) or a kid-friendly event; and even spend the night at one of the Wharf's hotels. In short, you won't be bored; there are more than 20 restaurant options alone."

I hopped on a water taxi, and thank goodness the weather was warm! ☀️ I can’t imagine how chilly it would feel in the winter, with the cold wind cutting right through you. 🥶 The ride to Alexandria was absolutely stunning! 🌊 Along the way, I got to see the Capitol Building, planes landing at the airport, and even a Navy base. The views made the whole trip so worth it! 🛥️✨

FANTASTIC ferry service! We took the ferry from the wharf in DC to Georgetown. We really the trip. The boat was great and opportunity to take pictures too. The view points are amazing. This allow you to sample DC from another angle. I would highly recommend this tour! My family really enjoyed it.

I love taking the water taxi from Old Town Alexandria to The Wharf. Best value as a local is to get the season pass. I feel like I have my own boat and I don't need to worry about parking.

What a wonderful experience. Everyone on the crew was so professional, the ride was smooth, amazing views and vibes, not too long not too short. Tickets were fairly priced and easy to buy. Perfect!

Very smooth ride!! A lot of options to sit- inside area, outside covered ( first floor), upper open area (second floor). It’s accessible to everyone. A great way to escape traffic, spend time on the water, and see good views! Would recommend highly.

This is a must if you are in DC! It is so pretty and very peaceful way to travel along with a great view! A great way to end our week in DC. The ticketing was really easy and there is a lot of seating (highly recommended going on the top!)

I would rather let the videos speak for themselves for this one. Grab a beer and chill on the outside/top/inside preferably. Just one tip- Park you vehicle(if you have one) at a proper paid place if you dont wanna get a $100 ticket like me 🥲

Waited 45 minutes for the 3:45 taxi to Alexandria like the sign said. Went to buy a ticket at 3:30. As did the couple in front of us. While barely looking up, she was looking after a small child, while talking on the phone, the young lady just said no when I asked if the taxi would be departing consistent with what the sign says. Rude as hell and horrible customer service!
