Activity itinerary

Washington National Cathedral

  • 50m
  • Admission ticket included
Discover the beauty and meaning of Washington National Cathedral on a private tour led by a certified Cathedral guide. Explore one of America's greatest Gothic masterpieces through its architecture, stained glass, sculpture, history, and symbolism while enjoying a personalised experience tailored to your interests. Unlike standard public tours, this private experience allows ample time for questions, photography, and deeper interpretation. When available, guests may also have the opportunity to visit the Cathedral tower for spectacular views of Washington, D.C. (tower access subject to Cathedral operations and separate admission). Whether you're interested in history, faith, art, architecture, or craftsmanship, this tour reveals the Cathedral as far more than a beautiful building—it is a living work of art and a national place of worship, remembrance, and celebration.
