Cherry Blossom Bike Tour of DC

Yes, helmets are provided and we require all riders to wear helmets on our tours.

Your safety is top priority for us and studies have shown that helmets can reduce head injuries by at least 85%.

Absolutely! We have tons of families as we’re a great family activity. We have 4 options for children depending on their age, size, and riding ability:

For children weighing up to 65lbs (30kg), we have trailers that can be left open or zipped up to fully enclose the passenger.
For children up to 12 years old or 100lbs (45kg), we have 2 wheeled tandem trailers. The passenger sits on a seat and can pedal or coast. All riders over 100lbs (45kg) must ride their own bicycle. We have various smaller sized mountain bikes for those able to ride on their own, and of course, our regular beach cruisers for children big enough to ride them.
Unfortunately, we do not have any adult tricycles or bikes with training wheels for adults that may be less confident in their riding ability. If possible, please let us know if you would like one of our tandems, trailers, or child bikes in advance that you’d like to reserve either a trailer.
Please Note: All child bikes use hand brakes. There are no pedal brakes available.

Unfortunately, due to the risk to both child and mother, pregnant women are not allowed to participate on our bike tours.

Most of our tours ride in wide bike/pedestrian paths, but we do occasionally ride in the street depending on the tour.

We carefully designed each tour route with safety as the top priority. Whether on the street, bike lane, or pedestrian path, you always have a tour guide who is an expert and safely maneuvering your group around the city.

All of our tours meet at our partner office located at 701 D Street NW Washington DC 20004.

Yes, reservations are required for all tours.

We’re happy to offer free changes and 100% refund up to 24 hours before tour* Failure to cancel a reservation at least 24 hours prior to scheduled departure may result in forfeited travel funds. Fare difference may apply.

All scheduled tours are in English, but private tours can sometimes be scheduled in other languages, given we have a tour guide who speaks the language of your choice.

We do reserve time to walk around some memorials on tour, however our bike tours are designed to enjoy the city from a broad perspective so that’s what we’re going to do!

Unfortunately, we cannot enter the museums due to time constraints on this tour. Additionally, there’s always some people that want 10 minutes in the Smithsonian’s and others that want 3 hours.

We limit group sizes to 15 guests per guide.  Larger groups will be split into two.  For larger parties, please inquire about a private tour at privatetours@fattiretours.com.

The tour meeting time is 15 minutes prior to the start time. No refunds or re-bookings can be provided for late arrivals or no-shows after tour commencement or departure.

All of our tours operate rain or shine, and we have rain ponchos available in our office for purchase.

Along with one of our phenomenal tour guides, every guest will receive a bike and a helmet.
