Fun activity - This was a really fun easy activity. I have mobility issues due to RA. And being able to ride the electric bicycle made seeing all the monuments a very enjoyable three hours.
I highly recommend this activity for anyone visiting DC, and wanted to see all the memorial monuments.

Shane is the Best - What a fantastic trip with Shane, we had six in our group plus another family of three for a total of nine bikes. We had a terrific time, every time we stopped Shane knew all the details, his explanation of each monument was exactly what we all were looking for. His can-do attitude, his knowledge of the city, his passion for history and his friendly nature all made the trip around the monuments the best. I can't imagine sitting in a car or bus and having the same experience we had.

Great way to see so many of the sites in DC - Matthew was an outstanding tour guide. He had great commentary about all the various sites visited. Even though some of the tour was conducted in the dark, he made sure all were safe during the tour. Excellent time and highly recommend.

Smooth ride and informative tour - Really enjoyed this ride. We opted for the electric bike but given the flat path and slow pace, not really necessary. We spent a sufficient amount of time at each stop - didn’t feel rushed at all. Our guide, Jose, was great. His passion for history was very evident!

Don’t bother with e-bike upgrade. - Overall great tour. Nice opportunity to see all of the monuments without all the walking. Guide was knowledgeable. Only had 7 minutes at each location so if you are a slow walker/wonderer/ponderer at the monuments, may feel rushed. Only downside was we booked an e-bike tour thinking everyone would be on an e-bike but everyone else was on a regular bike so e-bike riders had to do a lot of breaking as we were going too fast without any effort. Unless you really can’t pedal a bike, extra money for e-bike is not worth it.
