Great morning bike tour with Kirk. Tons of information, low key ride. Loved seeing the Venice canals.

We hired the manual bikes for the day and thought it was a reasonable price. Had a lovely cycle to hermosa beach and back. Have also cycled to Manhattan before too. The ride is lovely and relatively flat the whole way. The bikes come with a lock and you have to ask for a basket with helmets optional. The staff member who served us was on the phone at the same time, we found this very rude as there was little to no communication.

We had a wonderful private cycle tour with Chad who was full of interesting stories and jokes. It’s a gentle and beautiful cycle along the cycle path beside the beach along to Venice and then through the canals. We would thoroughly recommend both the tour and Chad.

The Tour led by Shawn was really fun! He was very informative, attentive & made the whole journey super fun! Cycling along the beach was relaxing & vibe was great! I would highly recommend this bike tour!

Took the Santa Monica and Venice Beach Bike tour. It was my husband, sister-in-law, 13 year old nephew and myself. There was another couple with a 1 year old as well. Chad was our guide and he did a great job. He kept us well informed along the way. You start out riding through Santa Monica and then you take the bike trail along the beach into Venice Beach Boardwalk. Then you see the canals and ride back on City Streets to the Bike Shop. I liked having a guide to lead me along the way and not having to think about where to go and so forth. If you want to take a leisurely bike ride and check out any of the boardwalk to shop etc you will just want to rent bikes and do it on your own as there isn't much time to stop and do that sort of thing on this tour. Part of the reason could have been that my husband ended up getting a flat tire and the bike shop had to run another bike down which caused us a 15-20 minute delay. We were offered a little time to check out the skateboarding park and we stopped a few times for our guide to explain and point out some things. I would definitely recommend doing this if you want to see a little bit in the area and not have to think about what streets to take, totally felt safe the entire time.

My husband and I took our son, fiancee and granddaughter on the bike adventure tour and had a fabulous time! The ride along the Santa Monica beach was so refreshing and the tour through Venice was a great way to see the canals. Our guide was knowledgeable about the history of the area and did a wonderful job guiding our group. What a great way to get some fresh air and exercise and see this area.
