Whoops! - Good tour that contained a mishap. Barb came and got me and brought to an urgent care. The issue was my own fault and I greatly appreciated the help!
The tour was fun and we saw lots of things!

Great for locals AND visitors! - I live in the area and booked this electric bike tour when friends were visiting, and it ended up being such a great choice. Even as a local, it was a fun and easy way to see Santa Monica and Venice without worrying about parking or planning a route.
The e-bikes made the ride comfortable for everyone, and the small-group setup kept it relaxed and personal. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable, and my friends loved getting a mix of sightseeing, local spots, and stories about the neighborhoods.
It was a really enjoyable experience for both locals and visitors, and my friends are still talking about it. I’d absolutely recommend it if you’re hosting out-of-town guests and want something fun and low-stress to do together.

Unforgettable Coastal Ride from Santa Monica to Venice Beach - 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!

Nice Ride - 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.
