Nighttime Biking in DC - Our tour guide, Adrian, did a great job guiding our group throughout the route. There were 5 kids and 7 adults and he handled both well. The ride was easy and at a good pace. Adrian was passionate about all of the history and patriotic information he shared. He made good use of the time he allotted at the various stops. We were able to walk around and take photos at most of them. The nighttime views were fantastic!

A must do while in DC - This tour is great. It doesn’t disappoint. David, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable, interesting, nice, and looked out for the group. DC at night is the best and this is a terrific way to do it. Absolutely would do this tour again if we return.

Great Tour, knowledgeable tour guide - That was a really fun experience. There are some monuments that are great to see at night (Washington, Jefferson, White House, Korean War Memorial). Others it would be better to see during the day (Vietnam, WWII). Biking around to these places was very enjoyable, and this coming from a guy whose about as comfortable on a bike as an ice cube is in Death Valley at high noon. The new WWI Memorial has a stunning sculpture depicting a man’s journey of service through the war. It brought me to tears, made me feel like I was there with him. Something that you need to experience in person.

Highly recommend! - Wonderful experience. So glad we did bikes instead of a bus fun way to move round and felt more a part of the experience. Matt, our guide, was top notch!

Bikes not safe for night ride - The tour guide was nice enough however there was only one tour guide and one of the biker’s bike broke down, at least four times and the tour guide had to stop and fix that himself. We did not go to the FDR monument. The monument stops were wonderful and the weather was perfect. However, when it got dark he put little cheap kid flashlights on our handlebars. It definitely didn’t light our path. Also, on the Viator app it says reflector vests would be provided - none were provided to the bikers. The guide had his on for the entire trip. And even worse, there were no back lights (or even REFLECTORS) on the bikes.
It was nice having a guide help us get around the city and the group was fun - the company needs to add another guide to help with big groups and add REAL lights to the front and back of the bikes. And don’t advertise reflector vests and not offer them.
