Wow wow wow! Our night monument tour was the absolute highlight of our trip! Having not been to DC to explore as a tourist for years and having the opportunity to bring our kids was already special, but touring at night with Jeff was the cherry on the top. Seeing DC by bike at night is magical and Jeff is a wealth of behind the scenes knowledge you would never get from a typical “guide book.” We’ll be recommending to all our friends and wouldn’t hesitate to do it again!

My family and I had a fantastic time! Jeff was such a great guide and knew so much about the whole city. He has vast amounts of knowledge on any part of DC history that you are curious about. I also felt very safe on the route he took us on. I highly recommend this experience for anyone looking to explore and learn more about DC!

Jeff was phenomenal, and I highly recommend his tours. He made every step of the process easy, and during the tour he was extremely knowledgeable, engaging, patient, thoughtful, and kind with our entire family.

Jeff gave us a fabulous tour of all of the monuments in DC on a night tour. I wanted to find a bike tour that was appropriate and safe for kids and I definitely found the best one! We were able to see so much in the few hours and Jeff gave us so much information. Also the bikes were high quality. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Last night, Jeff hosted us on an UNFORGETTABLE night tour in DC. I was initially nervous as the mom of two children, but the trip was 100% safe. To my surprise, the biking was the least memorable part of the trip. Jeff was an impressive and articulate historian, an engaging storyteller and an intuitive host who kept both my children, my husband and I totally engaged. The sites were amazing - from the Capital to the Lincoln Memorial and beyond. We would have never learned so much about the architecture and the back stories behind the various museums on the mall or the war memorials. This trip is PERFECT for any family looking to combine education, fitness and fun. Jeff is extraordinary. Thank you!

Turns out cherry blossoms, light rain, and riding at night make a lovely combination for a bicycle tour of the DC Monuments. Jeff was flexible, easy going, fun, extremely knowledgeable (history & local information), and provided us with great bicycles (with fenders!), helmets, waterproof gloves, bicycle lights and water bottles. Riding at night in a little rain meant we saw few other tourists which is saying something for cherry blossom season. We felt safe and well cared for. My biggest disappointment was not getting to do another bicycle tour with Jeff during the day due to heavy rain.

We had to change our planned day tour to an evening tour and Jeff was so flexible and accommodating. We had an incredible evening! We loved the bike lanes, hearing all his great stories about each monument, and getting just the right amount of history and info at each stop to educate and intrigue us. Bikes and equipment were great, we always felt safe and supported even w an 8yr old rider, and generally had a blast! Kids fav part was being shown all the cool angles to look at the Washington monument, including laying down! This was the highlight of our trip and the best way to see the national mall.

We met up with Jeff for a family "Monuments at Night" tour, and could not have been happier with our decision! He very clearly not only knows his stuff but is very passionate and thoughtful in its delivery, including to our children (9 and 11). He was very engaged with each of us and kept all of our attentions, filling in all kinds of "fun facts" that you would be hard-pressed to find elsewhere. Jeff is a really cool, all-around nice guy whose enthusiasm for DC history is nothing short of infectious. While it might not be surprising that this was the highlight of our entire trip for us adults, to hear our nine-year-old say this (unprovoked!) really underscores how great this is even for kids. For any family planners reading this, he came prepared with water bottles on the bikes (for us to keep) as well as plenty of snacks and even some hats and gloves to borrow for the cold weather. He really does all of the planning for you!

Wow! Our guide (Jeff) truly brought Washington DC and the history of our country to life for my family! Biking at night through DC is absolutely beautiful. Jeff had everything set: meeting spot, safe/high quality bikes that were fit for us, and safety briefing for our adventure. We then talked and planned out our route. The biking was so much fun, but Jeff’s stories are truly what makes this tour so incredible. It’s like seeing everything in DC with a universities top history professor! My family felt so special on our tour! This night bike tour will absolutely be the highlight of anybody’s trip to DC.

By far and away, our favorite thing we did on our trip to D.C. Jeff was a great tour guide and customized the trip to my family's desires and personalities. He was so great with my kids (12 and 8 y/o). He made it so fun, my 8 y/o didn't even realize she had biked 10 miles or that it was 11:30 PM when we got home. On top of his fantastic knowledge of the tourist sites, he was an excellent family photographer and some of our best family photos were by him. The highlight, however, was going to Gravelly Point so my planes-obsessed son could watch planes taking off and landing. Thanks Jeff for a great trip!
