What happens on the day
Escape the hustle and bustle of Downtown DC on this self-guided boat tour!
Beginning at the Wharf, you and your private group will step aboard an electrically powered, 18-foot boat. This one-of-a-kind craft features a built-in picnic table and is perfect for sharing with friends and family. Bring along a delicious lunch, sip on your favorite brew, or play a round of cards – the possibilities are endless!
