Washington DC water taxis


Washington DC It is a great capital that welcomes many people. Therefore, it is essential that you have a good public transport network that is capable of meeting all demands. For those who think that there is only bus, metro, train or taxi of all life, tell you that you are very wrong. There are also some curious water taxis.

These taxi boats unite Alexandria with the capital of the United States through the Potomac River. Specifically, they leave the Alexandria Navy and they arrive at National Gaylord Harbor, situated in Maryland. A normal one-way ticket costs 8 dollars (about 6 euros) and one round trip 16 dollars (12 euros).

Although it is very curious and attracts a lot of attention, it is used more by the citizens of Washington DC than by tourists visiting the area. Curiously, the past January 20, when Barack Obama Sworn in as the new President of the United States, it was one of the most widely used forms of transportation. More than anything because buses, trains and subways were blocked. It was only accessible on foot or through these friendly water taxis.
