What To Expect

Japanese Lantern

Stop to learn about the Japanese Stone Lantern, located at the site where the very first cherry trees were planted by First Lady Taft and Viscountess Chinda.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial

We'll walk our bikes through the FDR Memorial to view The Pagoda, a gift of peace, that sits along the banks of the Tidal Basin.

Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial

If time permits, we'll stop at the MLK Memorial. Your guide will stay with the bikes (out of respect, we never ride through the memorials) so you can walk though the "Mountain of Despair" to view the "Stone of Hope"

Be prepared and be patient to ride through the crowd. It is a cherry blossom viewing period, so big crowd is expected. If you don’t like the crowd, this tour is not for you. The tour guide was helpful, provided information for taking photos at important spots, and helped us throughout the ride. Overall I have enjoyed the ride and would recommend this tour to anyone who loves cycling while enjoying cherry blossoms at the same time.

It was cold and rainy, but our guide did a great job navigating us around the puddles and monuments. It was a fun way to experience Washington's iconic cherry blossoms!

This tour should not have been an option during Cherry Blossom peak season. Biking the tidal basin is impossible with the massive crowds. The tour group was much too large (15+) for the guide to handle. She tried but she needed at least another person to help make sure the group was okay. We ended up losing two people in the tour…they ended up turning around and leaving. The tour was limited to the tidal basin. So if you wanted to see other known areas for cherry blossoms, it is not included. Maybe any other time of the year would have been okay. But not during cherry blossom season.
