Overview

See Washington DC's historical monuments and memorials up close and personal on a 3-hour bike tour with an informative guide. Cruise around the National Mall and the Tidal Basin to see some of the most famous sights, and take breaks to walk around and explore attractions like the Lincoln Memorial. Our Monuments tour does cross streets but there is no street riding making it the perfect option for families and those who may not have ridden a bike in an urban environment. On a bike, you're able to see so much more than on foot or on a bus! If you've never taken a city city tour before, DC is a perfect city to give it a try. We know that once you've toured by bike, it will be the first thing you look for on your next trip to another city! Please note that the "what to expect section" provides a sample itinerary and you may tour in a slightly different order based on what may be going on in this busy city on the day of your tour.

Meeting points

We are located at 701 D Street NW, right by the US Navy Memorial Plaza

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Itinerary

  • Washington DC

    Arrive 15 minutes prior to your tour time to check-in and be fitted on your bike. Unlimited Biking is located at 701 D Street NW Washington DC 20004.

    15 minutes

  • Jefferson Memorial

    5 minutes

  • Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial

    As we respect our memorials, we don't ride through the FDR Memorial, so you'll dismount and walk your bike through the impressive four "rooms" that represent the terms FDR served our country as president. There are some unique photo opportunities inside. And make sure that you stop to rub Fala's ears for good luck!

    15 minutes

  • Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial

    Again, we don't ride inside the memorials, so you'll stop just outside and hear from your guide before taking a few minutes to walk into the MLK memorial through the "Mountain of Despair" to the Martin Luther King memorialized in the "Stone of Hope".

    10 minutes

  • Korean War Veterans Memorial

    Like many of the memorials in DC, the Korean War Veterans Memorial holds many secrets of symbolism that you may never know if you visited on your own. Your guide will share a few facts that will just add to your awe of this impressive memorial. Remember: "Freedom Isn't Free".

    5 minutes

  • Lincoln Memorial

    Some people say that a trip to Washington, DC isn't complete unless you see Honest Abe sitting in his place of honor overlooking the National Mall. Are Lincoln's hands are making sign language symbols of his initials "A" and "L"? See for yourself when you climb the steps up to the top after your guide shares some insight into the design of one of our most storied memorials.

    10 minutes

  • Vietnam Veterans Memorial

    You'll stop just outside the Vietnam Wall to learn about the design and thought behind this impressive tribute to a conflict that holds such a personal connection for so many of our guests. Some of the stories that our guides share will bring a tear to your eye.

    7 minutes

  • Vietnam Women's Memorial

    The Vietnam Women's Memorial is dedicated to the women who served, most of whom were nurses.

    15 minutes

  • National World War II Memorial

    One of the newer memorials in DC pays tribute to those who served in World War II. Your guide will share some insight on the design and history before providing a few minutes to explore. You may even be able to see the only "authorized" graffiti on a DC memorial.

    7 minutes

  • Washington Monument

    Have you ever noticed that the Washington Monument is actually two different colors? You'll learn why on your tour...along with several other fun facts about this iconic memorial to the United States first president. (Note: we do not go into the Monument)

Incredible bike tour and brilliant guide

Published on Jan, 2025

We only had 2 days in Washington so needed a tour that would show us everything quickly! This tour is 3 hours and hits every single monument / land mark that gives Washington its incredible name! Joe the tour guide was absolutely brilliant, he made such a fuss of us being on our honeymoon, taking photos of the whole group and stopping for just the right amount of time. Would definitely recommend if you want to see everything and learn a lot!

Fantastic way to see the city!

Published on Jan, 2025

We had so much fun, which was surprising since it was absolutely freezing and windy. We were considering not going, but so glad we did. Joe was a great guide and it was a wonderful way to show the city to my out of town friend. Will definitely do it again!

Would Recommend

Published on Dec, 2024

Really fun and flat bike ride. Great way to tour the monuments and get a sense of adventure in. I had not biked in years but the tour was very manageable and enjoyable and the tour guide was nice and informative.

Best time of year for low crowds!

Published on Dec, 2024

Was in DC for a business trip and figured a bike tour was the fastest way to cram as much sightseeing as possible into my trip. I arrived for 10am on Monday 18th November and, to my surprise, had my tour guide Joe all to myself. Guess I got lucky with the timing as DC was very quiet and Joe made sure I saw all of the usual sights and some extra due to being able to make our own path as a duo. I very much appreciate his excellent knowledge and flexibility it showing me around. Sped through some bits, depending on what I wanted to see, and slowed down at others, which was great. All in all it was perfect timing to allow me to see and take pictures of all the monuments largely without crowds. Joe was a great guide with decades of knowledge to share around, some great recommendations for things to do after the tour, and a very personable friendly nature. This is my third Ultimate Biking tour, having done two in New York City, and I'm always impressed by the guides and organisation. Will happily recommend Ultimate Biking and Joe for anyone looking to see DC.

Matt was a great guide....

Published on Nov, 2024

Matt was a great guide. We enjoyed it a lot and it was super family friendly. Our girls aging from 6-12 had a great time. There was plenty of time to go in and see the monuments before setting off to the next spot.
