Prepare in Washington, D.C. in four days
Consider where you will stay. Hotels in the city are the most convenient; however, Washington's subway system (known locally as "the Metro") extends into Maryland and Virginia, allowing visitors easy access to the city from suburban hotels. Make sure that any hotel you stay at is within walking distance of or has a shuttle service to a Metro station. Also remember to account for transit time when planning out your final itinerary.
In Washington, be prepared to do a lot of walking and to use public transportation. Driving a car in the District is rarely practical. Parking restrictions are especially problematic, and many attractions are within a mile of each other on the National Mall. Make sure that your hotel has parking available, especially if driving and staying in the city.
During the hot and humid summer months, take a bottle of water, sunscreen, and all other normal needs for a day outdoors. Good walking shoes are a must for touring the mall and city. For those who have trouble walking, you may wish to consider utilizing the tour operators such as Tourmobile , which provides transportation around the National Mall.
