Your Best Family Adventure in Washington!

Bike and Roll Washington, DC offers families an adventurous way to explore the nation's capital!   Did you know that the distance between the Capitol building and Lincoln memorial is over 2 miles?  Travel the distance between the city’s most famous landmarks by bikes! The riding is easy, safe and a fun way to travel.

The adventure begins just half a block from The National Mall on 21-speed comfort bikes;  Children not ready for their own bike can ride along on a trailer tandem or trailer carriage.  Join us on a tour where an experienced guide helps riders safely cross intersections, steers the group to picturesque sites and points out interesting history and facts. Our intimate bicycle tours are enjoyed by travelers of all ages.

If you prefer to explore on your own, rent bikes by the day or by the hour. We’ll set you up for an unforgettable day with safe and comfortable bikes, helmets, locks, maps and bike racks.  Strollers, wheelchairs and mobility scooters are also available.
