No trip to Old Town Alexandria is complete without a shopping trip to the boutiques on King Street. Next, relax on the Potomac River. If you’re looking to explore even more, take a riverboat cruise to check out some of the city’s best attractions – all by water.
Outdoor lovers can experience the area’s beautiful Atlantic foliage on a rented bike, or take a ride through Cameron Run Regional Park for especially scenic views. After a bike or stroll through the park, peruse the many shops, restaurants, and accommodations in Alexandria. For dinner, enjoy the splendid seafood dining at Finn and Porter, classic cuisine at the Evening Star Café, or fabulous French fare at the Bastille Restaurant.
No visit to Alexandria would be complete without a trip to some of Washington D.C.’s storied landmarks, including The Smithsonian Institution, the Washington Monuments, and, of course, the White House Visitors Center––all convenient to our downtown Alexandria hotels. Visitors can continue their trip through America’s past with a visit to the George Washington Masonic National Memorial.
