Do you enjoy history, mystery, espionage…and fun? If so this getaway is for you! Celebrate 2007, the “Year of the Spy”, by treating yourselves to a spy-themed weekend in Washington, DC!
Spend one night at the JW Marriott Hotel on Pennsylvania Avenue, located among the most recognizable landmarks of Washington, DC. This prestigious Pennsylvania Avenue hotel provides easy access to the DC area's renowned monuments, museums and cultural venues. A premier hotel is near the White House, the National Theatre, the Convention Center, and the National Portrait Gallery, this beautiful and contemporary Washington, DC hotel is the most sought-after downtown hotel in the Nation's Capital. Enjoy breakfast for two during your stay in the hotel’s Avenue Grill Restaurant.
Visit the International Spy Museum, the only public museum in the world solely dedicated to the tradecraft, history, and contemporary role of espionage. The Museum's permanent exhibition presents the tradecraft of espionage through the stories of individuals and their missions, tools and techniques. Exhibits feature the largest collection of international espionage artifacts ever placed on public display -- many for the first time.
Then, get a spy’s eye view of Washington, DC on a Spy City Tour . . . From World War to Cold War to the present, this tour, brought to you by the International Spy Museum and Gray Line’s Blue Diamond Collection, will feature some of the most spy-tingling sites in downtown DC from the last 65 years of espionage history. As a “Recruit” in Spy School 101, you will be briefed by your “Training Officer” on key sites linked to intelligence triumphs, disasters, and mysteries, and hear tales of spies who've left their invisible mark on the city.
After a day going deep undercover into the realm of espionage, intrigue, deception, and betrayal in the spy capital of the world, relax over dinner for 2 at Ceiba, the latest creation of the team that brought you DC Coast & TenPenh. The cuisine is contemporary Latin-American featuring Brazilian, Cuban, Jamaican & Mexican influences. Finally, take home a spy gift basket filled with spy themed books, CD’s, and more!
