Visiting Washington D.C. ...

[Axtremus]

Folks, I'm planning trip to Washington D.C. Any advise on local transportation? My hotel is very close to a metro station. Is metro the best way to get around if, say, I want to visit the Supreme Court, the National Archive Museum, the National Gallery of Art, the National Portrait Gallery, and the Spy Museum? Any useful tip on local transportation that you might be so kind to share?

Any one in the local are who might want to meet up, we can coordinate via private messaging.

Thanks in advance!

Man, I still don’t feel comfortable traveling around in a small metal tube with a whole bunch of strangers, especially with the current upswing… I think I would zipcar or rent a scooter or something…

Most of that is within a short walk.

Get an Uber to the mall and you can walk to all the sites.

Agreed, just walking needed to visit all of those sites. To get there, though, metro is easy, as is grabbing a Lyft. My main advice is to get up really early one day (like at sunrise) and visit the Lincoln memorial, or anywhere on the Mall. It’s great to have the whole place to yourself.
