Synopsis
Anyone looking to get a better feel for Washington D.C. will love the convenience of these cards, with their easy-to-follow directions and a map that lays out the walk. Above and beyond the typical tourist attractions, these guides give you views of the city that some locals haven't even discovered, including history, shopping, food, and architecture. The intro card will be filled with all kinds of information that you'd get in a guidebook, but in a much more accessible form: details on using public transportation in Washington D.C.; an overview map of the city, with the walks laid out in relation to each other; geography/ topography; history of the city; and, local customs and culture. Information in the deck will be updated at every reprint, so it will always be current. Stops/attractions are in boldface on the cards for ease of use, and are called out by number on the map sides of the cards Skip the dull tour guides, ditch those unruly maps, and experience Washington, D.C. like a native - on foot! For first-time visitors, adventurers, and natives alike, "City Walks: Washington, D.C." offers an intimate view of the city.Each card in this deck outlines a self-guided walking adventure, with a detailed map on one side and insider information on the other. From the prestigious government buildings, memorials, and museums in the federal district (like the White House, the Capitol, and the Supreme Court) to the historic neighbourhoods like Georgetown and Dupont Circle, you'll discover the locals' favourite places to eat, drink, stop, shop, rest, walk, and play.

These are a great way to get to know Washington, DC.
22. Juli 2008
Format:Spielkarten
These cards provide an excellent way to get out and explore the nation's capital city. Having studied DC's architecture and as a resident of DC (going on my fifth year in the city), I must say these cards are a great way to learn more about the city and its neighborhoods. I have used these cards to take students on a architectural tour of the capital and found them to be well-done, convenient and pretty comprehensive. Definitely a way to make a tourist's self-guided tour more interesting (and prevent them from getting lost, too).

Need Walk Distances, Please
17. November 2010
Format:Spielkarten|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I live in the Washington, DC area, and I'm always looking for new places to walk. I was excited to see this product; it promised to take me places I might never have seen before.
But, for someone whose primary interest is the actual walking, I've been disappointed in the cards. They don't tell you how far any of the walks are, so you're really guessing by looking at city blocks or landmarks. And while they call these 50 walks, some of them are only a few city blocks, so I'd hardly count them as 50.
If you're touring Washington for the first time, this is probably a great way to stroll by monuments, memorials and museums and a few parks. But if you live here and really want to get out there and walk, check out some of the other walking books instead.

Love these!!

We bought the LA ones for us when we moved here and I just bought the Washington DC ones for a friend that is being transferred there this summer! She has already gone through them with her family and can't wait to use them. They are fun and easy to use. I would definately use other ones as well!
