Though had visited there several times before attended the after hours event for members. Free to do what desired. Walked the grounds by myself without the crowds. Then relaxed on the chairs at the rear of the mansion looking at the river. The mansion and museum tours were great as usual. .

Private Mt. Vernon/Arlington Cemetery Tour for up to 10 Guests

A++ family experience with Chris at Arlington and Mt. Vernon
Chris, who is the owner of the business, is by far the most phenomenal tour guide we have ever had on any vacation. He was so dedicated to making sure that we covered every square inch of Mt. Vernon and Arlington National Cemetery, taking us to see spots other tour guides do not typically take you. Also impressive, was Chris' encyclopedic knowledge of both sites, in addition to knowledge about all other sites of Washington D.C., our national history, and key figures in our national history. I asked him how he knew so much, and he shared that he spends a great deal of his time in places like the Library of Congress, the DC museums, and in reading countless books about our nation's history and our key figures. Finally, Chris is just a great guy to share the day with. My son and I were blown away and so appreciative of having the privilege of having Chris host us for the day.

A must for anyone visiting DC!
We booked a bike tour of DC for our family with three 14 year olds, and were blown away! Jeff was absolutely amazing in tailoring a tour that kept us all engaged, and we had a great time! He worked with us to help with an issue the secondary site had with our booking, and was incredible to work with through the whole process. Jeff’s tour is a must for anyone visiting DC! We got got to see it all, and in a fun and meaningful way. Thank you, Jeff!!

Private DC Monuments at Night Bike Tour
sandiegotravelnut, Jul 2026
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.

Wonderful!
Jeff and DC Cycling Concierge was just simply the best! My three kids, 9,11, 14 kept saying how much fun they had and how awesome Jeff was. The tour was fun, engaging and filled with interesting history. Jeff told us so many unique things about each monument and about the city itself. Truly the best way to explore DC was on bike…. especially with DC Cycling Concierge.

Above and beyond experience!
Chris was spectacular! We anticipated more of a scripted presentation, closely monitored times and being ushered along. Instead it was as if your favorite cousin took you on the tour, he was friendly and personable. He not only knew the the area and history of the surroundings but he thoroughly knew the history and details of Arlington and Washington's Mount Vernon. He gave us guidance and pointed out easy to miss significant landmarks. He was accommodating, flexible, and punctual. We had such a great time.

Such a wonderful time to visit Washington’s Mt Vernon. We had a gorgeous day which made it even better! We learned so much from our tour guides and got to know more about George and Martha’s life on the beautiful plantation. Do not hesitate to make this a part of your DC visit.

Shane was such a knowledgeable guide. He added relevant info at just the right pace; he was great with our sons and keptbus moving despite 90-degree heat. He even brought water and snacks at my request because we’d just finished attending my father’s burial. Highly recommend!!!

Best Bike Tour in DC for Families
Jeff gave us the best custom bike tour of DC monuments! He is an expert on family-friendly bike paths and also on each historical marker along the mall, from the Washington monument to the Lincoln memorial, he kept us safe, entertained, and inspired. He even fed us snacks! He made sure we took a route that everyone in my family could keep up with, knew where the closest bathroom breaks were at any given time, and honestly sparked a love of history in my 11 year-old son. We could not have done this on our own. He took very cool pics of us along the way too. Jeff's stories about the city are engaging from the beginning of the tour when he laid out a map of the city and showed us where were going to the end when we wished we had more time. His enthusiasm and love of history is contagious. I would love to do it again and go at nighttime to see everything lit up.

Private Road Ride Out & Around DC

Awesome road bike tour through DC.
My family and I have been on over a dozen guided bike tours throughout the world. This tour with Jim was an exceptional experience from the moment he picked us up at our hotel to our drop-off at the end of the day. The bikes were the highest quality we’ve ever used. The routes ran mostly on car-free roads and paths through an unexpected national treasure — Rock Creek Park. Jim has a tremendous depth of knowledge about the area, but more than that, he’s simply a wonderful guy who really knows his bikes. He earned a Watson Fellowship in college to bike around the world, and later served as president of the National Bike Alliance. We can’t recommend this tour enough!
