This unparalleled, open-air sightseeing experience features our glass-top, convertible Mercedes-Benz Sprinter! Hop aboard and catch incredible panoramic views with an expert tour guide as your chauffeur and narrator. You will begin by exploring the National Mall to observe the United States Capitol, White House, Thomas Jefferson Memorial, Martin Luther King Jr., Memorial, and much more while passing by and learning about other significant landmarks.
