Our family of four had a wonderful time seeing DC with Jeff as our guide! Our boys (ages 9 and 13) thoroughly enjoyed the trip, as did the adults. Jeff was incredibly knowledgeable, and led us through a fun, multi-hour tour of the highlights of the city. It was a great way to both learn about the city by combining the physical activity with the guided tour (no way would the kids have absorbed as much on a bus or other tour). Jeff was also a very safe guide, both in terms of road rule and ensuring the equipment and bikes were COVID safe. Would highly recommend!

It was so fun showing you and your boys around DC - so wonderful to be outside and feeling like some of the good things are getting back to awesome. And the fact that we could get so much closer to the Capitol Building with some fencing coming down was a wonderful thing. Yes, I agree, the mix of adventure, activity and (dare I say it?) education, is a sweet recipe for fun, learning, and making memories. Thanks again for letting me show you all around our beautiful city!

Our family goes to DC from Florida every Father's Day and we love outdoor activities when we travel. We used Jeff last year to negotiate the C and O canal and were so impressed with his knowledge and personality that we could not wait to see him again. When we got to town on Thursday the COVID induced lack of traffic sparked a conversation between Jeff and I. He shared that the ability to tour DC on bikes to the sights in this unprecedented time would be life changing. We loved his suggestion and took all 5 of us on the tour. My wife and I started 12 miles away from DC on the C and O and then met my sister and her family at the hotel and finished with them all around DC. A 3 hour tour turned into 6 hours because we were having so much fun and Jeff is always so easy to be around. You just want more. We cannot recommend him high enough for anyone looking for a fulfilling family friendly activity in the DC area.

Thank you for the extremely kind words, for hiring me again, and for letting me show you around the monuments and memorials with your sister and family. It really is a remarkable time to explore and the bikes make it so easy to get around and I'm delighted we got to cover so much ground. I'll hope to see you all again next Father's Day!

We did a Family Bike trip with Jeff and it was an awesome experience. Our kids are ages 10, 8, and 5.5. The youngest rode a tag along with Jeff and was really enthusiastic about riding with the leader. He is used to a tag along so I would make sure your child is okay with that. Jeff took time to explain many historical facts about DC and we were able to cover a ton of ground on a beautiful day while getting good exercise.

Family fun, learning, exploring, and getting around easily are the reasons why I love giving private family bike tours. It is the best way to get around and see things up close and I'm so happy your family had an awesome experience. Thanks for letting me show you around and I look forward to riding with your wonderful family again!
