We had a great time on our tour, led by Conrado. We got to see so many interesting sights, Venice Beach, Venice Canals, Santa Monica Beach and Pier as well as important landmarks on the way. We enjoyed hearing the history of the area and its culture as well as discovering locations for movies that we love. We strongly recommend this tour. Conrado was a fantastic guide who took time to consider what we wanted from the tour and made it fun!🤩
The bike tour was fun and the guide, Jesse, knew all about the history of the beaches and the places we passed. There is the bar where Jim Morrison got his start. There are the canals that Abbott Kinney built. There is the Inkwell beach area where Nick Gabaldon learned to surf. There are the boys at Muscle Beach who posed when they saw my camera. My ride started on a cloudy morning and ended on a sunny afternoon along Santa Monica Pier. There were opportunities to stop and admire views, or get something to eat or drink. The vendor, Unlimited Biking LA, provided helmets, and adjusted the bike seat to accommodate my long legs. It's an easy ride, mostly on paved paths along the shore, with a little street-riding. But there are a few hills, and slippery sand covers a few spots along the route, so I don't recommend it for someone's first experience on a bike. Definitely worth the price.
My daughter and I had an amazing time on the Santa Monica & Venice Beach Bike Tour! This was definitely one of the highlights of our Los Angeles trip. The guides were friendly, informative, and made the experience fun from start to finish. They took plenty of photos for us, which allowed us to enjoy the tour without worrying about capturing every moment ourselves. We had lots of opportunities to stop, explore, and take pictures at some of the area’s most iconic locations, including Santa Monica Pier, Santa Monica Beach, Venice Beach, the Venice Canals, and Muscle Beach. The pace was perfect, and we never felt rushed. If you’re looking for a great way to see Santa Monica and Venice while learning about the area and enjoying beautiful scenery, I highly recommend this tour. It was a fantastic experience and one of the best parts of our trip!
Great tour, learned so much about Santa Monica and Venice while enjoying the amazing environment. Jesse was our guide and he did a phenomenal job.
Our guide Ron was fantastic! He knew the area well and had losts of historical stories. Nice level ride to see some of the famed places like the incline, pier & Venice canals. A great way to spend a few hours!

Very nice bike ride with guide that has shown us many sights. The upgrade to electric bikes was top notch. Not really necessary for this bike ride but nice.
Nice way to explore the area and avoid the crowds and take your time seeing the sights. Easy bike ride no need to be an expert
