Planet Word, the interactive language and literacy museum housed in the beautifully restored old Franklin School at Mount Vernon Square, draws school groups, families and word-lovers of every age to a part of downtown DC that has filled in fast with restaurants and residential towers over the past decade. DCA Limos runs chauffeured sedans, SUVs and Sprinter vans to its entrance, through a Mount Vernon Square block where street parking is limited and several other nearby attractions compete for the same curb space.

Families and school groups visiting Planet Word often pair it with a stop at the National Portrait Gallery, Capital One Arena or a Convention Center event nearby, and we quote the whole day as one coordinated booking when told the full plan in advance.
The old Franklin School, a historic Reconstruction-era schoolhouse, now houses Planet Word's interactive exhibits on language, reading and words, and the building's Mount Vernon Square location puts it a short distance from Capital One Arena, Penn Quarter and the Convention Center — any of which can fill the surrounding blocks with their own traffic depending on the day.
We confirm the museum's current drop-off point before a visit, since Mount Vernon Square's mix of attractions means curb availability can vary more than at a standalone destination.
A family visit to Planet Word often becomes part of a longer downtown day, and we coordinate a single reservation covering the museum, a lunch stop and a second attraction nearby rather than booking separate rides for each leg.
School and camp groups get the same Sprinter van treatment we provide for any DC museum field trip, with a confirmed pickup time set in advance with the group leader.
