This bike tour is comprehensive if you want to cover a lot of excellent memorials / monuments within a few hours. There are a lot of people on the tour, but they are very efficient at getting the group from one location to the next. You do have a small amount of time to take photos at each monument / memorial.

Was a fantastic way to start our 4 day adventure in DC. Covered a lot of ground and got great info from our guide about each of the sites. They were very well informed as well as being open and available for questions and suggestions by the group throughout. My son (13) was much more engaged than while just walking around.

Tour started late because we were waiting for two people who did not get the update on new meeting place. Lots of bike issues for others on the tour. They really need two guides with a group to help solve problems along the way: flat tire, gears breaking, other technical problems. Minimal explanation at the monuments but honestly…. Even with all of that…. It is a GREAT way to see the monuments. Peaceful, beautiful ride and particularly good for teens!
