Waterfront Walk

The "Waterfront Walk" route explores all of the sights and memorials along the expansive waters of the Tidal Basin. 
With the dedication of the MLK Jr. Memorial in the Fall of 2011, there are now three major memorials on the banks of the beautiful Tidal Basin. Join me on this picturesque walk and we will fully explore each of them! Discover the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial, the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial and the Thomas Jefferson Memorial.

Additionally, this three hour walk will feature views and discussions of:

  • The Washington Monument
  • The John Paul Jones Memorial
  • The Japanese Lantern, Japanese Pagoda, and the First Cherry Planting stone marker on the Tidal Basin
  • The George Mason Memorial
  • Views North and South from the Inlet Bridge
  • The U.S. Capitol
  • The DC War Memorial (WWI Memorial)


If the tour concludes on the Tidal Basin, you could consider taking a 5-10 minute walk  to visit the Maine Ave Fish Market as well as the new Southwest Waterfront Wharf. See websites below for more details.


Post Tour Suggestion: Visit the new Southwest Waterfront Wharf- This remarkable, mile-long stretch along the Potomac River comes to life with restaurants, retailers, residences, and businesses—all complemented by monumental views and a vibrant culture.
