We so enjoyed our afternoon of biking with our tour guide, Barb. We called her an hour or two before the tour reserve a spot on the 2pm ride and were told that no one had signed up, so there was no tour. Barb quickly said that she wasn't at the office but could be there in 20 minutes, and she promptly took the 3 of us in the group on a private ride, without charging us any extra fees. Beyond her accommodating us last minute, Barb took us on a very fun ride around Santa Monica beach and Venice, full of energy, enthusiasm, and area trivia. We spent about 3 hours riding, stopping at highlights for pictures/to people watch/get an ice cream. Be sure to bring sunscreen and comfy clothes. We had a blast.
