Getting Around Washington, DC

Metrorail and Metrobus
Washington, DC has one of the safest, cleanest, and most efficient transportation systems in the world. Metrorail is the most convenient way to get around DC. The Walter E. Washington Convention Center has a dedicated Metro station (Mt Vernon Square/7th St-Convention Center Station) and is serviced by the yellow and green lines. Use Metro Trip Planner to determine your travel time and fare to/from the airport, hotel, convention center, etc. Metrobus provides connections for locations not serviced by Metrorail.

If you plan on using Metrorail throughout the week, we suggest purchasing a SmarTrip Card which allows you to load a designated amount on the card for repeated swiping. The cards can also be used as payment for Metrobus rides and can be purchased online or at any Metrorail station.

You can see a fare and time estimate before you hail the cab and pay either through the app or in the vehicle.
