We had an amazing time on the night bike ride. Saw so many of DC’s major sites. Matt was such a great guide! Knowledgeable, professional, and very helpful. He took photos for us and worked hard to make our trip safe and fun. Our 13 year old grandson rated it top excursion on our trip!

Tour guide was super informative and patient. Didn’t rush anyone and it was a relaxing and fun way to see DC! Highly recommend!

Great guide.

Tiffany_W, Nov 2025
Our guide was top notch, Albert. He taught us a lot, was fun, accessible, and checked in with us regularly. Gave 4 stars purely bc the equipment team didn’t orientate us to our e-bikes and that took a bit of time and Albert to give us instruction.

Great family activity

brittany_n, Oct 2025
We loved this tour! All my five kids ages 15-4 had a great time. The 4 year old rode on an attachment bike behind my husband and she loved it! We did it at night and it was the best time to see all the monuments lite up. Abby was awesome and gave a brief but educational explanation of all the monuments and then let us walk around. I would tell everyone to book this tour. It’s 3 hours so eat before but the route was so easy and flat/doable for any age or biking level.

Great way to see all the monuments. Our tour guide Joe went above and beyond what was listed on the itinerary. It would be hard to safely cycle through so many places when new to the city. My teen daughter had a lot of fun too.

Definitely a must for your visit! Best way to see the monuments. Joe was an awesome guide and took great care of us!

Bike Tour for your family

Hortencia_T, Oct 2025
I would recommend the bike ride experience. we booked our experience for 2:30 in the afternoon. I would recommend you are familiar with a bike and it would be helpful if you knew how to change gears due to some inclines during the ride. Our tour guide Joe gave us lots of good information and we covered a lot of ground in three hours. The afternoon time had lots of pedestrian congestion, and at times it was a little difficult to maneuver through people. Maybe the nighttime or early morning would be less congested. The Unlimited Biking company worked with us when we had to reschedule a night ride due to rain. This is a great way to see the monuments and not be exhausted at the end from all the walking.

Happy nightvrider

Deanne_Z, Sep 2025
Good quick overview of the monuments with a brief history lesson you wouldn’t get on your own! Benham was a great guide, and weather was perfect.

Super fun!

Alina_C, Sep 2025
It was really fun and our guide Joe was a hoot. I would recommend for anyone (as long as you have beginner bike skills). You get to see all of the monuments much quicker than walking and easier than driving with less people because its at night.

Highly recommend this bike tour

You’ll See Monuments You Didn’t Know Existed!

Amy_J, Jul 2025
My son and I took this tour and found it to be the best decision to see monuments around DC! You will see sites you never knew were there! Our guide was wonderful, he ensures everyone’s safety and gave bits of history that aren’t readily known. We recommend this to anyone visiting DC who wants to see the monuments in a unique way! The FDR monument, which we didn’t know about, was our favorite!

Interesting- good value for money

Ruth_T, Jul 2025
Really interesting tour- great way to see and learn about the history of DC. The tour lasted 3 hrs and was good value for money. You get opportunity to stop and check out the monuments you visit

Just do it!

Patrick_F, Jul 2025
Great way to see most of the monuments and twilight a plus! A fun way to get around with family and recommend doing it early on your visit to give you the lay of the land. Definitely ask for Matt as a guide. He was stellar on all fronts.

Hands down the best way to tour the monuments in DC. The bikes made travel extremely convenient. Joe is very knowledgeable about the history surrounding the monuments and makes it very interesting. He did a great job! Touring in the evening was perfect due to the evening breeze. Highly recommend!

So fun! Book it!!!

Charissa_B, Jul 2025
Friends recommended we do the evening bike tour of DC and we definitely did enjoy it! We upgraded to the e-bikes, made the 3 hour tour go by fast, much more entertaining for my teenage son, and we made lasting memories riding through a storm! Thank you to Matt, our guide, who navigated the storm & all the sites perfectly. We ended up being the only people at some monuments that made for perfect pictures.

The best way to see all...
