Herndon Travel Guide

 olddude Says:  Yes, I finally went and did it last weekend. I drove the famous Skyline Drive from north to south through the Shenandoah National Park. The drive is awesome! I am fortunate enough to have a car with a sunroof that opens wide so I could enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of... 

 Africancrab Says:  We had dinner on our last day in Virginia at the Kitbar. This was a first for me and I was pleasantly surprised. The interior was warm and welcoming, staff pleasant and helpful. It was not busy so we were seated right away and service began. Mark and I shared an imported... 

 Africancrab Says:  My family decided to go Indian this time; something spicy and hot! The Curry N Kabob Indian restaurant is located literally 6 walking minutes from where we live. It was gloomy and threatening to rain so we drove there. It was early 4:30 pm so there were no people at the... 

 Africancrab Says:  Tonight dinner was at the Turcuisine lounge and grill, a Turkish restaurant no doubt. Since we were unsure what to eat, I was happy when my husband mentioned there was a Turkish restaurant at the Worldgate Center. We headed there at 5:00 pm, which is an unusual time for me... 

 Africancrab Says:  Generosity is something the American knows about and uses. When you hear the name Generous George's, you probably think its just the name of a chain of restaurants, wrong! They are a chain of generous restaurants serving generous portions of food for a decent price.They do... 

 cjg1 Says:  As a Diamond with Hilton I am entitled to free breakfast in the lounge. Breakfast in the lounge is quite good. They have a nice selection of juices, cereals, coffee, tea, bagels, toast, muffins, pastry, sausage, bacon, fruit, eggs and home fried potatoes. Other items such as... 

 cjg1 Says:  My wife and I literally discovered this place after searching for food close to our hotel. We are both big lovers of Indian Food so when we saw this restaurant we had to check it out for ourselves. This place is a real gem for both food and service.The food here is... 

 cjg1 Says:  The Cardinal was the sports bar/casual restaurant of the Hilton Dulles in which we were staying. My wife and I stopped in for a drink and a snack before heading out to visit with family. The Lounge is a large space with plenty of bar seating , tables and comfortable chairs... 

 cjg1 Says:  As a Diamond with Hilton I'm entitled to Lounge access; which is a nice perk. The lounge is a nice size with a flatscreen TV, tables and couches. There are several stations set up with beverages, coffe, tea, snacks, hot food, cold food, cookies and alcoholic beverages. My... 

 cjg1 Says:  Driving is the best way to navigate around Herndon or to reach it. We had driven from New York to the Hilton and Hampton Inns in this area. If you are travelling on to the airport there is afree shuttle at both hotels. 

 cjg1 Says:  Most of the local area hotels provide complimentary airport shuttle service. The shuttle is fast and free which is always a bonus in my book. Our hotels even allowed us to keep our car parked in their lot after we had checked out and took down our plate number. Both visits... 

 olddude Says:  Being that this area is known as the tech corridor of Virginia, I was not suprised at the number of people using their cell phone whie driving. What I am suprised at is the number of them that do not use any type of hands free device. Therefore there are many inattentive... 

 olddude Says:  If you are ever bored on a Sunday afternoon and the weather is nice, a great thing to do is to take a leisurely drive to Fredrick, Maryland. It is the drive, not the destination, that I want to mention here. Route 15 north until you get to the Potomac River is a beautiful...
