Traveler pickup is offered

A professional Continental City Tours guide will pick you up at the scheduled time from your hotel, restaurant, or museum within downtown Washington, D.C., the National Mall area, or Arlington, VA. If your pickup location does not appear in the online system or is flagged as outside the service radius, simply message or text us the address and we will gladly confirm it or suggest the nearest convenient pickup point.

The pickup radius is designed to maximize your 3-hour Contrast Tour, allowing more time to focus on the city’s diverse neighborhoods, iconic landmarks, and architectural highlights rather than travel time.

Your guide is also your driver, providing engaging narration as you travel through Washington, D.C. You’ll enjoy informative drive-by views of key areas such as Embassy Row, the Naval Observatory, Adams Morgan, and other notable corridors, with stories that bring the city’s contrasts to life. The tour also includes dedicated stops to explore the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, Washington National Cathedral, Georgetown, the “Exorcist” Steps, and Georgetown University, blending scenic drives with walkable experiences.

If you are arriving with your own vehicle, contact us in advance and we will provide free parking recommendations—either within D.C. on weekends or near the Pentagon on weekdays. Your guide can pick you up from the parking location and return you there at the end of the tour.

We look forward to welcoming you and sharing a unique perspective of Washington, D.C.
