The famous National Mall is home to over a dozen historic museums and memorials. As one of the most iconic locations in the Nation’s Capital, and a choice outdoor destination for the perfect autumn weekend in D.C., touring groups have to make it a priority to visit the National Mall. Even if you don’t see all of the museums and monuments (it’s a multi-day task) it’s highly recommended you stroll along the mall and make a few stops on the way.
Traveling in multiple cars can be a problem when you have to find parking in Washington DC hotspots like the National Mall. Your group may have to park in different areas and this can throw off your day. Instead, you’ll want to consolidate your tour group into one vehicle to make your trip as easy as possible. Rent a bus and easily get dropped off at the mall while your driver parks off-site. Once you’re ready to go, they’ll swing by to pick your group up after a long day of exploring the National Mall!
The National Cherry Blossom Festival is one of the biggest festivals of its kind in the country. Every spring, millions of visitors flock to the monuments and memorials surrounding the Tidal Basin to view over 3,000 Japanese cherry trees in full blossom. The trees were gifted to the United States in 1912 by Mayor Yukio Ozaki of Tokyo City and have grown to become a symbol of friendship between the U.S. and Japan. The cherry blossoms are only in peak bloom for less than a week, which means the festival is likely to be exceptionally crowded during the best time to visit. Keep your group together during this busy festival with a charter bus rental from GOGO Charters!
New York City is around a 4.5-hour ride from Washington D.C. and is a wonderful weekend trip option for D.C. locals looking for a fun excursion. International travel groups may also want to plan a leg of their trip from D.C. to NYC. Rather than renting cars, catching a pre-scheduled bus, or hopping on a train—a private charter bus rental will help you travel comfortably and on your own time. You won’t have to rush to catch a train or be cramped for the drive in a small car. Enjoy your time seeing the Nation’s Capital and Big Apple back to back!
In the mood for an authentic Philly cheesesteak? Okay, you may not need to drive all the way to Philadelphia for one, but at a 3-hour drive from D.C.—why not pop over for a weekend trip? GOGO Charters can help groups travel from D.C. to Philadelphia to see Independence National Park, The Franklin Institute, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Renting a charter bus will give your group the flexibility you need to explore D.C., Philadelphia, or any other historic city in the region.
Niagara Falls is hailed as not only one of the most beautiful attractions in New York state, but also in the world! Traveling from D.C. to Niagara Falls will take about 7 hours.

Being cramped in a sedan or minivan isn’t fun for sports teams or fans alike. If you’re a big group of fans traveling for a Washington football game or Washington Capitals hockey game, having a spacious charter bus is the key to enjoying your tailgate and game!

You can ride together rather than splitting into several cars and being flagged into separate parking lots upon arrival at the game.
