Reviews
"The Carousel at National Harbor is a delightful family attraction. Fun rides and a stunning waterfront view make it a must-visit! It’s $7 to enjoy the carousel and the playground. Totally brings me back to my childhood."
"Omg. Talk about bringing back your childhood or make a fun memo with your kids. This is a classic carousel you have to ride. Just park in the lot right out front and get on it."
"My Husband and I tried the carousel on a whim one evening and it was pretty cool. It wasn’t crowded that day so we didn’t have to wait in line long. We purchased two white zinfandels in the portable champagne glasses that you can take on the carousel with you. The site while on the ride was pretty. I love the water. Overall, it was a bit overpriced for the experience, in my opinion, but hey, we can check it off the bucket list now so it’s all good."
"A fun time. Reasonable at $7.00 for all day ($5.00 with military ID) and adults are free. Only debit or credit cards accepted at the window. The carousel is well maintained, rides are several minutes and to modern family friendly music. There is plenty of seating for non rides and a playground behind the ride. The area is fenced in so little ones can't wander off. A bit far from the bathrooms (by Chipotle) but otherwise worth the price."
