with Embark DC
⇓
why is viewing DC’s FALL colors better on a private Boat cruise?
OK… we may be biased, but here’s our math:
x 2 — because of the reflection.
x 2 — because there is no traffic.
2 x 2 = 4
Commonly asked questions about our DC autumn foliage private boat or yacht tours:
Q: Is it warm enough to be on the water in October & November?
A: Usually, yes! It’s not very different from taking a hike along the water, and we often have temperatures well into the 70s and even 80s during Washington DC’s fall season. We have blankets on board. Dress in layers. Or, you can charter our yacht option for climate-controlled comfort indoors, and 360-degree window views.
Q: How long are your DC monuments + fall colors boat tours?
A: Our private captained cruises are a minimum of 90 minutes from all nearby Washington DC docks. See more information on our locations page. But, remember, this is a private boat tour, so it can be as long as you like!
Q: Is this also a Monument Boat Tour of DC?
A: You bet, if you like! You’ll typically see the Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, Kennedy Center, and plenty of other important and historically interesting buildings! See our sights page for more information. (Monument boat tours are our most popular, so we’re always happy to show them on any cruise!)
Q: How many people can I bring on your private Washington DC fall color boat or yacht tours?
A: The USCG maximum is 6 passengers total, plus our crew. If you need more people, contact us to reserve additional boats.
Q: What is the timing of the peak color for the leaves in DC each year?
A: It changes depending on weather, but typically peak fall color happens in late October or early November. Fortunately, you can usualy reserve our private boats with short notice.
