Are you planning a sightseeing trip to Washington, D.C.?  Once there, consider using the Metrorail for all your travel needs.  It is convenient, inexpensive, clean, safe, worry- free, and green.  You will find that the Metrorail has routes from the Ronald Reagan Washington National, Baltimore-Washington International, and Dulles, Airports (so you will save on taxis).  There really is no need to rent a car or pay for parking.  You can get almost everywhere in D.C. on the Metrorail: Historic Neighborhoods (like Georgetown – great restaurants), Federal Buildings and Visitor Centers, Galleries, Museums, and Libraries, Gardens and Parks (even the Zoo).

 

Each traveler will need a ticket or a farecard.  A farecard holds between $1.35 and $45. Farecards are available at fare vending machines in Metrorail.  A good option to consider is the one day pass – (less than $8.00) unlimited travel.

 

I have been to D.C. literally hundreds of times and always use the Metrorail. 

 

Good journeys!
