Enjoyed the ride, bikes were great, tour guide was fun. Sometimes he would stop and talk about things before we got to it and then drive by without stopping to see it. Id rather stop when we get there and get a good look while he talks about it. We took pics in front of the santa monica pier but would have been nice to get 10 minutes to walk and actually visit the pier. It was coolish the wind breaker was much appreciated and we were provided with water and a snack. Bikes had nice saddlebags to carry your things if needed. Loved riding the bike path but going through town is a lil sketchy, but seeing the venice canals was worth it.

The Santa Monica to Venice Beach bike tour was phenomenal! Our tour guide was a fantastic historian, sharing rich stories about the area. The ride itself was smooth, safe, and full of energy along scenic coastal paths. Definitely a must-do experience when visiting the Los Angeles area!

This was a fun way to learn about the area. Steph is a great guide who knows local history. My husband and I had just one day in town and we enjoyed spending the time seeing it on e-bikes.

We had a great bike trip with Barbara! She was friendly, knowledgeable, and shared lots of interesting details about the ride and the areas we explored. The tour took about three hours and was a relaxed, enjoyable pace.
