Five Stars All The Way
Oct 2022
We took our 12, 10, & 8 year old on this bike tour and they all had a blast! Our 8 year old had enough energy to make it the 3 hours riding solo by himself but they have bike trailers and kid bikes that attach to an adult bike if needed. Pace was leisurely and we were able to stop and go inside many of the monuments. Tour guide was well versed on history and had so many fun factoids to share about each monument and the area. We loved Joe! He was great! Only wish we had done this first as this tour is a great way to decide which museums and places you want to go investigate further.

Excellent way to tour
Oct 2022
Excellent way to visit the monuments. The bikes were in great condition (I had a Cannondale), the guide (Shawn) was very knowledgeable and the pace was easy. We had ample time to walk each monument and take photos. Our morning ride was small (9 riders) which was much smaller than the afternoon rides I saw the next couple of days. The shop attendants (Jason & Kenny) were friendly and helpful.

A good way to see Washington when u der time constraints.
We only had one day in Washington after arriving from New York in the morning. This tour was a great way of seeing a lot of monuments in and around the centre. The tour lasted around 3 hours and was well worth the money. We upgraded to e-bikes which made a difference but there aren't that many hills on the tour so you would be OK on mountain bikes. Dave our guide was excellent, very knowledgeable and very approachable.

Great tour for first timers
Sep 2022
Having been to DC multiple times and only visited the monuments on foot, I highly enjoyed this bike tour with my family who were first timers to DC. I would recommend a bike tour to any first timer, as it's the perfect way to get around and see all the monuments without getting exhausted by walking. The biking was very low impact with plenty of breaks. I also enjoyed the tour guide's commentary, and learned a few things myself. You do get a little bit of time at the each monument to get off your bike and take pictures, but note the tour has to keep moving, so each stop is fairly quick in order to cover everything. In the fall, the weather was perfect for a bike ride (70 degrees) and crowds were reasonable. I recommend this tour!

Great tour and way to see monuments
Perfect way too see the monuments and national mall. While the ti,e at each monument is limited, it was enough to see it and you could make a decision if you wanted to com back. Guide David, was knowledgeable and succinct, He gave a great few minute overviews of each monument, with importance, purpose, history and how to see it. He also knew the answer to every question. The company provided great Cannondale bikes and the distance was probably only 5-7 miles

Great experience!
Sep 2022
Greg was awesome! We ended up being the only two people that showed up for the tour, but they did not cancel! Greg took us on a tour of all the major monuments and was insightful and gave a lot of personal stories. Each stop was around 10 minutes, which was the perfect amount of time to take a few pictures and walk once around the monument. I would highly recommend this bike tour to people of all skill levels.

Apr 2022 • Friends
Judy was our tour guide and CJ helped made sure no one was left behind.

We did the 10am tour which I recommend as there are a lot more people walking around as the day gets later and it can be crowded to bike around.

Judy did a fantastic job shaking the history of all the monuments. She made it very interesting for the kids. We were a party of 9. 5 adults and 4 kids. They bikes to fit us all.

The area where you meet to start the ride is on the wharf with lots of fun lunch spots to eat after.

We never would have been able to see all the monuments had we not been on the bikes.

Worth it
Best way to see the sights in DC. Our four kids (15, 11, 10, 8) loved it. Our guide, Christian, did a great job of engaging the kids and giving us great information for each stop. Highly recommend doing this tour.

Got to the shop, no idea who our guide was as they don't have uniforms or anythjng to say they work there. Finally found Ryan, by asking about 20 people all standing there wondering the same thing.
Got onto our ride, which was the best part, nice bikes, and great weather. The ride was about walking pace, and the guide kept saying how we didn't have enough time to see all the things promised (perhaps if we rode faster it wouldn't be an issue).
We got to our first lot of monuments, and the guide started telling us about the Smithsonian, his facts were wrong and we're corrected by a friendly guy on the tour with us! This seemed to happen repeatedly.
At the white house, our guide told us we couldn't get closer because Elton John was visiting- sure mate. When we asked why there were people a whole block closer, he just argued and said we weren't going there.
After riding straight passed the Korean War memorial, and getting yelled at by another guest on the tour, we stopped briefly, only for the guide to again complain about time.
Pretty disappointing tour, saved only by the weather and fellow participants, all equally bemused by our guide that it became an ongoing joke.

This short bike tour included most of the major monuments and sites . Great for someone on a limited schedule.
Our guide (Christen) was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He was very friendly and approachable. His concern for his group was evident by his frequent reminder to hydrate due to the 90 degree heat. He was very successful in maintaining the pace of the tour , which can be difficult with ten people of differing interests and biking abilities.
