Blue Fern Travel

It’s the perfect Washington DC experience.

Walk along a bustling street in one of DC’s iconic neighborhoods. Sip an icy beverage from a local coffee shop while a newfound friend talks about the city’s rich history and how it evolved. Nibble on an empanada from a hidden gem that only locals know about. Stop and discover the colorful story about a mural in an alley that the big DC tour buses would never see.

That’s what Carpe DC is all about.

It doesn’t matter if you’re visiting for the weekend or planning a special event with friends. Our itineraries are designed to make you feel more like travelers discovering a new city than Segway-riding tourists being herded like cattle. We focus on local, community-driven restaurants whose food isn’t only delicious; but also reflects the city’s dynamic culture. Combine good eats with discovering cool facts about the city’s evolving music scene and ever-changing architecture, and you’ve got yourself quite a perfect day.

Oh, did we mention a portion of the proceeds goes toward charity?

Yup. We’re the only Washington, DC food tour that features a one-for-one program where a portion of each ticket purchased helps feed a local resident in need.

For us, it’s all about love of DC. Our love for its food, its culture, and the community that makes it all happen. We can’t wait for you to join us in discovering what makes Washington, DC one of the greatest destinations in the world.
