"Great night ride through DC"

Reviewed July 13, 2025

I had a great tour around Washington with Lorenzo. We covered all major sights, got some interesting trivia and then some time to explore the sights on our own. I really appreciated how open Lorenzo was answering all our questions and taking our pictures and even tough some were not very confident biker he always had an eye on them and ensured that everybody was safe and had a great time. Thank you and I am looking forward to another trip

"Rent a bike"

Reviewed July 12, 2025

A great way to see Washington DC. We had one day on our vacation to see all the sites around the Mall area. We would not have been able to do so without being on bikes, especially with all the construction and firework setup in the area (we were there the week before the 4th of July). Renting the bikes was easy. They made sure we were comfortable with our bikes before we left. The rentals came with locks and helmets. We picked the bikes up at 10 am and returned them a little after 7 pm.

"Best thing to do on our first morning in DC"

Reviewed April 24, 2025

Such a fun thing to do. I did it on our first morning in DC with my teenage son and we both loved it. It’s super relaxed and Tim is a brilliant guide, taking us round all the important monuments. We learnt so much. The pace was perfect for us and we got so much out of it. Five stars. Highly recommend. And ask for Tim!
