Justin was great. He was very knowledgeable and he took time to allow us to take pictures and he even took some of us. The ride was smooth and a lot of fun.
So glad you enjoyed it!
We learn so much about downtown Santa Monica even though we have been residents for 10 years! Justin is a great guide and I would highly recommend to visitors and residents alike
A great way to explore this fun area. We did this in the evening, so brought a blanket to stay warm.
The vendor was very communicative via text message in the days before this excursion, and was accommodating of us not knowing the area. The driver arrived right on time at the place where our Uber driver dropped us off. I suspect I was a little heavier than most passengers they get, but he was very polite and positive, and showed us the sights. Would definitely do this again as the ideal way to experience the Venice Beach area.
Thank you for taking a tour with us!
Horrible experience. Going too fast and recklessly driving in busy traffic with cars speeding too close. I was terrorized and the driver just dismissed, and shrugged me off. when I voiced my concern. I definitely don't recommend.
Hi Thor, Who was your driver? When was your tour/ride?
We saw art in Santa Monica on a Promenade Block Party. Great tour and service! It’s so fun to experience the city in such a unique way. Many smiles were seen that evening! We look forward to the next special tour.
This Rickshaw tour of Venice and Santa Monica was so much fun. We had a fantastic time riding along with the Venice Electric Light Parade. Our experience was more than excellent, and the rickshaw was very comfortable. Our driver was responsible, courteous, and engaging, too. Thank you so so much for such a memorable experience.
Highly recommend! We had a last minute request for our Executive team to do a fun activity in Santa Monica and JoWanda and her team made it happen. The process to book was easy, the team was very accommodating, and our group had a fantastic time. We were completely satisfied and will definitely use them again.
The tour person was very nice, she explained everything clearly, she showed the area very well and we will do it again sooner
Such an awesome and informative tour of Santa Monica and Venice Beach with our driver/guide, Justin!
