Take the Circulator!
The DC Circulator is a local bus with specific routes for the National Mall, Eastern Market to Navy Yard and the Wharf and other high traffic areas. The buses are clean, efficient and cost only $1 per trip (which you can pay in exact cash/coins or using a SmarTrip card). It’s one of the best ways to get around!
