    Rob, my wife and I just returned from an 8 day vacation in DC yesterday. I cannot overstate how valuable your videos were to help us prepare for our experiences in and around DC. I will be telling anyone I know going to DC to watch your videos.
    Keep up the good work.

    Hi Rob! Any tips for seniors traveling to DC. My parents will be there in October. They’re still mobile; just a little slower and long walking tours probably not a good idea for them.

    I have two tips: Do not underestimate the distances on the Mall. The Mall is very walkable but the distances between memorials is bigger than you think. If it’s humid hop a circulator bus to the other end…..no shame. The other is to HYDRATE!! I guess this falls under the great shoes category perhaps.

    My own impressions after first visit -- very clean subway compared to NYC, Uber is very cheap, art museum and air & space museum closed (but portrait gallery is open), Chinatown is a joke, too many young kids on e-bikes and scooters at the national mall.

    Damn. I was really weeks away from my trip, thank you for this. I will just wait until the memorials are back to normal. Just seems like the worst possible summer to visit.

    • @TripHacksDC
      @TripHacksDC  Месяц назад +1

      There will always be at least one or two major memorials or sites under construction. If you try to wait for "back to normal" it may never arrive.

    Hi Rob, how are you? My wife and I are from Brazil and we're going to visit Washington DC in August this year. My question is about Capital Bikeshare. Could you help me, please? If I sign up for a day of Bikeshare, which costs 8 dollars, can I park my bike at a Bikeshare kiosk while I visit a museum on the National Mall and after I leave the museum take another one or the same bike to go to another attraction or will that cost something? Thanks for your help.
