Georgetown By Bus

May 25, 2011 – 9:56 pm

Trying to get to Georgetown from the American Guest House (Kalorama) and don’t want to spend a lot on taxi fares or perhaps just want to enjoy the area as a local?  Unfortunately there are no metro/subway stations in Georgetown, but there are plenty of buses and taxis.  So, if you are a guest at American Guest House Bed and Breakfast and are wondering how to get to Georgetown, here are some tips:

You can either of course walk all the way thru (about 25 minutes walk) or take bus 42/43 a few feet from our front door to DuPont Circle or take a leisure walk down to Dupont circle and catch  the Circulator (red bus) by the Heurich house  (beautiful Victorian House turned Museum) and go directly to the heart of Georgetown.

Fares: regular fare is  $1.00, senior fare $0.50 and you can pay by cash or with a Smart trip.

The DC Circulator has more than 1 line, it’s  all about downtown Washington, DC.  It has five routes  that links cultural, entertainment and business destinations within the city’s central core!

Enjoy your ride! Jonathan
