What To Expect

26-Mile Bike Path

3/4 of the tour takes place 26-Mile Bike Path with stops all along the way for stories, trivia and interesting attractions.Come ride with me and you will see... 2 to 2.5 hours includes many 10 to 15 minute stops at attractions listed.

Santa Monica Pier

Great photo op with the world-famous pier, ferris wheel and rollercoaster in the background. 15 minutes overlaps with and is part of time spent on the 26 miles bike path, SM state beach & Santa Monica bay. *Note: bike riding is not permitted on the pier.

Annenberg Community Beach House

This is a spot where celebrities used to hang out and party. We swing by for a few quick stories. 15 minutes overlaps with longer attraction times and is part of the total 3 hour tour.

Venice Beach

Venice Beach vibrates with activity. An original hippy hangout that still maintains an eclectic vibe and an anything goes attitude. We'll check out all the best attractions along the beach. 1 hour time overlaps with and is part of time spent on 26 mile bike path & Santa Monica bay.

Venice Beach Boardwalk

This is what everyone wants to see... VENICE. The Venice Beach bike path is parallel to the boardwalk. We ride along next to the boardwalk to view the vendor shops and eclectic people and all the coolest spots along the beach. Listed times overlap for a total tour of 2.5 to 3 hours.

Venice Skatepark

From morning until sunset you'll see gravity defying things. This is the #1 skatepark in California. See if you can get a shot of one of the skaters catching some air. This 15 minutes overlaps with time spent on Venice beach and the boardwalk.

Venice art walls

Legal graffiti park where the art comes and goes in a swirl of artistic street art talent. If you see a masterpiece that you love, get that photo now. It could be gone tomorrow.

Venice Canals Walkway

The Venice canals are a hidden gem. Bicycle is the best way to see this quaint neighborhood. We'll show you why they call it Venice and tell you how these canals got here. I bet you'll want a photo. 20 minutes for the Canals pulls us away from the beach for a few blocks but that time is part of the 3 hour total time.

Muscle Beach Venice

Famous because Arnold Schwarzenegger used to work out here. Hear pop culture stories and view the body builders. Photo Op. We don't actually enter the bodybuilder workout area but viewing is free. Feast your eyes :) 15 minutes overlaps with longer times listed Close for renovation until March 2020. Still worth a peek.

Santa Monica State Beach

Roughly 50% of the tour is in Santa Monica along the beach with the other 50% in Venice. 1 to 1.5 hours spent in SM overlaps with shorter times listed for specific stops.

Santa Monica Bay

This is a beach bike tour, the beach cities of Los Angeles are Santa Monica Beach and Venice beach both along Santa Monica Bay. We ride the length of both beaches on the beach bike path enjoying the sand, sound of the surf and all that there is to see. This 3 hours is the entire tour time and all other attraction times overlap within this 3 hours.

Santa Monica Looff Hippodrome

This is the home of the Santa Monica carousel. One of the last wooden carousels in the world. A hand carved beauty. You've seen this building in movies and TV shows. We don't typically go inside but by request we can carve out time for a photo or a spin. Admission is included. 10 to 15 minutes overlaps with longer times and is part of the 3 hour total tour time.

Pacific Park

Site for your iconic Santa Monica Photo Op with ferris wheel & rollercoaster as the background. Pacific Park is on Santa Monica pier. There is no biking on the Pier but BY REQUEST we can make time for a quick stroll. For the full Pacific Park experience make some time before or after your tour. The pier is just 1.2 miles (2KM) from our starting and ending point.

L.A.'s Iconic Lifeguard Towers

All along the beach standing like sentinels are the iconic lifeguard towers. You've seen them in movies, on the internet, in TV shows, commercials and more. We can appreciate them as we roll on by or by special request get close for a photo. You may get sand in your shoes or go barefoot for this shot.

We had a fantastic private tour with Barb yesterday (three of us - a 62 year old and two 15 year olds). Lots to enjoy for all of us - Barb is a fount of knowledge and it was really fun and interesting. Highly highly recommend this as a way to get to know more about Santa Monica, Venice, history, architecture, skateboarding, Muscle Beach (old and new) and current goings on.

My husband & I did this fun bike tour during Covid, and what a treat it was to have Barb as our guide! Barb had our bikes set up out front, all sanitized & ready to roll! She showed us how to work the electric throttle on the bikes, which turned out to be amazing! We used it occasionally when we needed a break from pedaling. Along the lovely, spacious, ocean bike path, we stopped at intervals to learn the history of many fun movie/TV/Pop culture facts. We never realized how many Pop culture references were born in that exact area! Barb is fun, personable, and kept a steady, easy pace throughout the ride. We called our kids right afterwards to tell them all about it! Would definitely recommend this tour at any time---and what a safe break it was during Covid!
