5Excellent tour and experience
Excellent service and guide! Mathew, our guide, was great.
5Highlight recommended
We were a bit unlucky with the weather; it rained the whole time. Despite this, our guide expertly led us to the memorials on the National Mall. By the end, we were soaking wet but also very satisfied.
5Monumental E-bike tour
Excellent tour. Our tour guide Wally was very knowledgeable and led us at a good pace. E- bikes are a fun way to see the Monuments.
5Great tour of the DC monuments on electric bikes
We had a wonderful time on our electric bike tour of the DC monuments. Our tour guide Bentham was knowledgeable and engaging and made the trip fantastic.
3Good- but safety concerns
The check in was easy and friendly; However the following can improve; - the waiver link sent by email does not work; - the bikes were not up to par- specifically , one developed an air leak and at conclusion of ride, ride was flat - e-bike throttles were disconnected resulting in in burst of acceleration anytime pedals engaged; this makes bike control around corners DC tourists , unsafe - guide needs to engage more and speak louder; Otherwise, great tour and a great way to see all the monuments around the 'mall'
5Great trip, great guide Benham
Benham was a terrific guide! Very friendly, knowledgeable. Evening tour was great for a hot summer … still lots of sweat! But would do it again.

About Washington DC
Washington, DC is the US capital, a planned city on the Potomac, with a National Mall of monuments and museums and cherry trees in spring.
Washington was planned as a capital in the 1790s, with broad avenues radiating from the Capitol. The National Mall stretches from the Capitol to the Lincoln Memorial, past the Washington Monument and the Reflecting Pool. Memorials to Jefferson, Franklin Roosevelt and Martin Luther King Jr stand around the Tidal Basin, where cherry trees bloom in late March or early April. The White House stands just north of the Mall.
