Enjoy a memorable ride on the Capital Wheel, one of the exciting experiences included in your Washington D.C. tour. Located at National Harbor, the Capital Wheel offers travellers a chance to relax above the waterfront while enjoying beautiful panoramic views of the surrounding area.
Step into one of the comfortable enclosed gondolas and rise high above the Potomac River. As the wheel moves upward, you can take in impressive views of the National Harbor waterfront, Potomac River, Washington D.C. skyline and nearby surroundings. The elevated perspective makes this experience especially enjoyable for photography and sightseeing from a completely different viewpoint.
The Capital Wheel is designed as a relaxed and enjoyable experience for travellers of different ages. Whether you are travelling with family, friends or as part of a group tour, the ride provides an opportunity to unwind after exploring Washington D.C. and enjoy the scenery from above.
During the ride, travellers can capture memorable photographs of the waterfront and skyline while enjoying the gentle movement of the wheel. The experience is particularly attractive for those who want to combine sightseeing with a fun recreational activity during their USA holiday.
