You get the Potomac from water level, which changes everything about how the monuments actually sit in the landscape. Good for people who want to move while they're seeing the city, and for anyone tired of walking.

boat tours
3100 K St NW
You board a vessel full of strangers and spend two hours on the Potomac watching monuments slide past while someone talks about history over speakers. It works best if you abandon any hope of quiet reflection and lean into the theatre of it.
