Using Capital BikeShare with the SelfTour™ GPS Guided Tour App makes exploring the key tourist sites of Washington DC even more fun.
Touring the famous visitor sites of Washington DC on a bike while listening to a completely guided audio tour is a delightful experience. And it is super inexpensive! Download the SelfTour™ Washington DC Tour App, rent a bike from Capital BikeShare at one of its many locations, then, put on your headset or earbuds, and go. It is that easy.
You can start the SelfTour™ App tour at more than 50 locations on its tour popular route between the White House and Capitol Hill, including key parts of the National Mall. You’ll hear exciting descriptions, fascinating highly researched information accompanied with musical backgrounds and even audio recreations of historical happenings. Each tour is a complete circle, so you end where you start or chose not to and leave the bike at another Capital BikeShare station. There is no need to go to a gathering spot like most tours require. With complete turn-by-turn spoken directions along with GPS positioning means you always know where you are eliminating the fear of getting lost. Stop anytime along the way and continue on your own schedule.
Want to see more of Washington? A second tour app, SelfTour’s Drive Washington DC tour, while designed for driving, works equally well if you are biking. And you will be eco friendly. The tour covers many of the city’s highlights including the National Cathedral, Georgetown, Arlington National Cemetery, Capital Hill, the entire National Mall, Embassy Row, Dupont Circle and more. The app “magically” activates the appropriate narrations along the way making it super easy to use. If you get tired, just leave the bike at one of the many Capital BikeShare locations and Uber back to your hotel. Then start the rest of the tour from the previous location the next day.
Enjoy touring new locations without spending a lot of money on guides. SelfTour™ Audio Adventures GPS guided walking tour Apps are available for a very reasonable price at your app store.
