Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Transportation

In Washington, DC: Assume shuttles rather than parking. Parking is scarce and expensive around the District's hotels and in Old Town Alexandria, and the Loudoun and Prince William venue belt sits far enough from the hotel blocks that guests will either drive it themselves or be driven. Twelve transportation companies are listed, in the District, Sterling, Leesburg and Arlington. If guests are traveling on rail, confirm the operating hours for your night rather than assuming them, because a shuttle that returns after the last train has stranded people here before. Set pickup times around the river crossings: a route between Virginia and Maryland or the District is a bridge, and the bridges are where this region's traffic actually fails. Races, parades and official closures shut streets outright, so check the calendar for your specific date, give the driver the route in writing, and settle headcount, waiting time and gratuity the same way.
