Best evening in DC
We had such a wonderful experience with Jeff! Our 7 year old son was so engaged and excited the whole time. We always felt safe bicycling in the bike lanes and on park paths. The equipment provided was excellent quality. I highly recommend this tour for families!
Operator response
Thanks Allison for your praise and I'm so happy you all had such a great experience. I'm also glad we were able to reschedule 24 hours later given your son's tummy ache the day before. He was such a trooper and I love seeing how much kids dig biking to all the sites, learning, and absorbing so much history. Thank you and I'll hope to see you all again!

Great guide, great informative experience, highly recommend!
We just returned from an extended weekend visit to DC and the entire family rated Jeff's nighttime monument tour as everyone's favorite experience (all 7 in our party)! Jeff is knowledgable, passionate and enthusiastic about not only biking but also about American history and DC. He knew everyone's names before our initial meeting and personalized the tour accordingly. We had a fantastic time with him, and he took some great photos of our family. His Giant bikes were all very well tuned up and everything worked perfectly, i.e. brakes, gear shifts, bells, lights.
My family takes a lot of private tours since we travel around the world frequently, and we have had a lot of tour guides. Most in our experience may be well-informed and cordial but many are robotic and never learn everyone's names since they give tours day in and day out. Jeff is extremely knowledgable yet personal, and called everyone by their names. We loved the tour and would repeat if we ever returned to DC since the tour is completely customizable to your desire.
Operator response
I'm so glad you had such a great time biking around DC! It was a pleasure to get to know your crew and hear a bit of some of the travels you've had. I'm all the more grateful that everyone rated your bike tour as your favorite experience in DC and that my service ranked so well with all your other tours - THANK YOU! There are so many more things we can explore in DC so I do hope you'll come back again soon.

D.C. Night Ride Adventure
Jeff was a sensational guide. His story telling and knowledge of D.C. was impressive to say the least. We learned so much and had so much fun - an awesome adventure. We especially liked the night tour as the crowds and heat were at a minimum. We would definitely do it again.
Operator response
Thank you Robert for your incredibly gracious praise and I'm delighted you had such a fun time exploring DC at night. Yes - during the warmer months it really is a great way to explore the city with fewer folks and cooler temperatures. And don't the memorials and monuments look so fantastic all lit up against the dark sky? Thanks again for your feedback!

Most awesome guided bike tour of D.C.!
We had a fantastic bicycle tour of DC with Jeff. He had so many great stories and fascinating historical information to enliven our ride. It was so nice to follow someone who knew the bike lanes and could navigate to the various parks and monuments. The bicycles were very comfortable and safe. There are so many unique places we would have missed without our expert guide! With such a short visit to DC - this was the perfect activity to see it all, especially with a teenager. (He was grateful for the snacks and ice cream stop!) With the summer heat, it was ideal to have the option of a twilight/night ride to see the sights lit up in very comfortable weather. We even had an epic stormy, double rainbow sunset along the ride - unforgettable! We definitely recommend DC Cycling Concierge to anyone who wants a fun, guided travel adventure.
Operator response
YAY! I'm so happy you enjoyed your tour, all the history, monuments, unique places, and activity. The combination of getting some physical activity while learning some history works really well with lots of teens (and folks of all ages). Thank you so much for your recommendation and glowing review!

Amazing Cycling Tour for Families
We had an amazing experience on our nighttime monument tour of DC with Jeff! We were able to see all of the major monuments and memorials and seeing them illuminated at night was unforgettable. Jeff was so knowledgeable, friendly and engaging. He went above and beyond to accommodate our 6- and 10-year-olds. He made sure the tour was fun and informative for the woe family and ensured we were comfortable every step of the way. I highly recommend Jeff and his company, DC Cycling Concierge. It was the highlight of our trip!
Operator response
I'm delighted your whole family had such a fun time and enjoyed seeing and learning so much of the history of DC's significant sites. As you experienced, night tours are really a fantastic way to beat the heat and enjoy these iconic sites anew. Thank you for letting me chaufer your youngest on the trailercycle with me and kudos to your son for biking the whole thing. I'm so glad this was the highlight of your trip to DC!

Fun and interesting — 100% recommended!
Riding around the city with Jeff was an amazing experience.
Our kids—who are teenagers (not the easiest crowd to impress, haha!)—were engaged the entire time, asking questions and genuinely interested in every story Jeff shared with us.
Jeff is fun, charismatic, open, and flexible, adapting the tour to our needs and interests seamlessly.
We absolutely recommend this experience to everyone.
Visiting the monuments without crowds, watching the sunset at the Capitol, and learning about U.S. history in such a fun and engaging way is exactly what this tour offers.
Definitely a big highlight in our trip in DC.
Operator response
Thank you Javi for your kind praise and I'm so glad you ALL (especially your awesome teens) had a great time and learned a lot! I always love learning about my guests, their interests and connecting them with the history, the sites, and our current day. Thanks again!

Perfect Introduction to DC by Bike!
My husband, I and teen daughter booked Jeff's private Monuments at Night Tour the evening we arrived in DC. It was a great experience from initial correspondence to meet up through the tour itself. Jeff is passionate about DC, biking, family and is a wealth of knowledge about DC, history, fun facts, great photo ops and biking the area. He was great at keeping everyone engaged and having fun and most of all safe. This was our first trip to DC and this tour on the first evening was the perfect introduction to the area and it's history. 100% recommend!
Operator response
April, I'm so glad I got to introduce you to much of this beautiful city and that it was such a great introduction. I do encourage guests to book me as early in their visit as possible because it is such a great way to start, get oriented, and get a great sense of how vibrant and beautiful this city is (and how fun it is to explore it by bike!). I'm so glad you all had such a great time - thank you for your kind praise!
