Casual and Family Friendly | 3 hours | 5-8 miles
DC is famous for its thousands of cherry trees around the Tidal Basin and for the annual National Cherry Blossom Festival each spring. But do you know how these Japanese trees ended up in the Nation’s Capital? Learn the backstory of the remarkable woman who first envisioned cherry trees in DC, a disaster that nearly doomed the cherry trees, and the generations of trees that have crossed the Pacific as symbols of friendship, peace, and renewal. Join us for a scenic and insightful ride exploring the beauty of DC’s cherry trees in bloom. This tour is only available during the cherry blossom season, typically mid-March through early April. Of course, we will visit and photograph the most breathtaking and beautiful scenes of cherry blossoms, including a lesser-known park bursting with cherry trees!
