Why thank you Thomas! We appreciate you coming to Venice and spending a few hours with us pedaling around the coolest beach on the planet - I'll be sure to let Steph know you had a great tour. Safe travels until next time. 👍 Anthony Owner VBT
An authentic way to discover Venice beach (history, way of life, best addresses...) with a very friendly guide and small group (4 in my case). I recommend
Merci beaucoup. J ai passé un bon moment avec vous. Steph Devault Lead Guide VBT
Myself and a colleague spent 3 very enjoyable hours cycling with Steff. Relaxing and informative, we saw a side of Venice beach from a local. Thoroughly recommended.
It was a pleasure meeting you both and I'm so glad you enjoyed your special Venice experience! It would be great to see you again some day, take care and safe travels until then. Steph Devault Lead Guide Venice Bike Tours
We rode from Venice to Santa Monica to Marina Del Mar. It was an easy flat enjoyable ride. Learned history and local stories. Highly recommended way to spend your morning/afternoon
Why thank you Robert! I had a great time meeting you all and showing you around Venice - it's people like you that make my job so enjoyable - thank you and safe travels 🙏 Steph Devault Lead VBT Guide
Our family had a fantastic experience riding along the boardwalk and canals with the very personable Stephan last weekend. He shares his passion and great depth of knowledge of the Venice area with really fun stories, personal insights and little-known interesting facts. We’ve done many bike tours and I’d say this overall ride was nice / quite easy and the bikes are super comfy.
Thank you for choosing Venice Bike Tours! I had so much fun pedaling around Venice with you and showing you our unique community! Please look us up when you're back in town and we'll do it again! Steph Devault Lead VBT Guide
We did this tour as a family of 2 adults and 2 daughters age 12 and 14. Our tour guide Stef knew more about Venice Beach than most locals, being a local himself. He was absolutely brilliant. We went for miles, here there and everywhere, stopping to listen to little nuggets of information of all sorts from local artists to the history of Venice. It was a fascinating tour, the last thing we did on our 2 week tour of California and it was easily up there as one of the main highlights. There are many bikes for rent along the beach, but I doubt there are better guides than Stef!
I'm so glad you had a great time in Venice Sarah! We love sharing the rich history and insider stories that come along with being locals here - we hope to see you again some day, take care until then 🙏 Steph Devault Lead VBT Guide
A perfect choice that I made! Anthony made the perfect 1st day of my entire travels starting with explanation of the history of Venice and optimized services with kindness! His warm kindness dissolved my fear of traveling a new country alone and provided me a chance to enjoy the cities with an open mind! This bicycle tour not only is fun, energetic, and informative but also let you enjoy the beauty of the Venice city with breeze!
Thank you for the kind words Emma! We're so glad you enjoyed your special day, be well and safe travels until next time 👍 Ciao Anthony Panzica Owner VBT
I absolutely LOVED this bike tour! It was by far my favorite part of my recent trip to LA. Anthony brings an authentic positive energy and wealth of knowledge of Venice. I can't wait to return to bring my daughter and co-workers! Do not hesitate to book this one of a kind experience.
The pleasure was all ours Elizabeth and we look forward to showing you more when you come back to the West coast! Many thanks and blessings! Anthony Panzica Owner VBT
Anthony does a wonderful job sharing history of area and pointing out attractions. Gave us a good background to better enjoy time in Venice.
Thank you so much Carol! We had a blast pedaling around Venice with you and we appreciate you coming from so far away to see us! We'd love to see you again some day - please let us know when you'll be back in town 👍 Ciao Anthony Panzica Owner VBT
Anthony is the best! I did the tour with my daughters, 13 and 10 years old. We had fun, we learned a lot, we felt safe and got to even discover secret gems from Venice Beach. I would absolutely recommend Anthony and I would come back with the rest of the family!
Paula, it's reviews like this that make my job so rewarding - thank you SO much! We'll be here any time you would like to come back and see us again - take good care 👍 Anthony Panzica Owner VBT
