An excellent way to experience Santa Monica and the surrounding area! 10/17/2012

We booked our bike tour as a result of our research on TripAdvisor. With all of the overwhelmingly positive reviews, we figured we couldn't go wrong. Sure enough, everything was as we'd come to expect by reading through the reviews. The time was well spent looking at attractions with our tour guide (Barb), who was very personable and great at navigating the area. Honestly, I think the tour is under-priced... so take advantage of it before they realize it! :) more

Best way to see Santa Monica and Venice 10/17/2012

During a day trip to Santa Monica,it was overcast and we were looking for something to do. Our tour was simply fabulous as we cruised and saw all the sights-many places we never new existed. The Electric Bikes were really cool and fun. more

Too fun! 10/9/2012

I was on a day trip to Santa Monica with a business associate of mine. We wanted to be lazy and adventurous all at the same time. We found the Pedal or Not shop by accident as it's located behind a grocery store (it's actually a neat little shop) and a half block from a busy street. I wasn't sure about the price at first but after ponying up we got the semi private tour. I'll be honest, I couldn't get the smile off of my face for at least the first 20 minutes on that bike. The cool factor of being on a bike you don't have to pedal is really hard to explain. I especially enjoyed accelerating from a stop while passerbys looked at us with bewildered looks on their face as their brains tried to process how a regular looking bike just took off without anyone pedaling! So, we opted for a slightly different tour than the standard tour, meaning we wanted to concentrate on going up and down the beach because there's plenty of eye candy and it didn't hurt that it was a beautiful day. After it was all said and done, I really didn't want to go back and turn the bike in. I could've done that all day. Oh, and the commentary from our tour guide was really informing too, it added a lot to the experience to know some of the culture and history behind what we were seeing. more

Perfect for any fitness level or age 10/9/2012

I completely enjoyed the whole tour with a new found appreciation for the electric bicycle. This is the perfect tour to see so much of the area while expending as much or as little energy as you desire....I would recommend it to anyone. more

Worth every cent!!! 10/2/2012

Never having been on an electric bike, and being locals who love the beach, we took a chance, two fifty-something and a 62 year old rider who was somewhat "rusty" on pedaling. Decided on the 9 a.m. ride because it was Labor Day weekend and we wanted to 1. avoid being overwhelmed by crowds and 2. not be in too much of the heat of the day. It was worth every cent we paid, because there was no way we ever would have been able to cover the amount of mileage of beach we got to see, from Marion Davies old "guest house" of 7000 sq. feet,!! past the S. Monica pier, Muscle Beach, both old and new, to the Venice canals, It would have wiped us out had we needed to pedal. It was great to cruise past the sweaty joggers and cyclists and there was a perfect rest stop and lots of historical info (new to us local gals) provided by Lance, our tour guide. We are definitely adding this excursion for our out-of-town-visitors. Whether you are young or old, good or mediocre cyclist, or a has-been rider, this will be one 3 hour tour you will not regret climbing aboard. more

Fantastic tour 9/19/2012

This was a fantastic tour lead by Barbara. The pace was very leisurely & was an excellent way to enjoy & see the scenery etc at Santa Monica & Venice Beaches. Barbara was very informative & had excellent local knowledge. This is a must do tour if you are staying in the Santa Monica region-:) For those that are looking for some exercise you can pedal, for those that like to do things easy the electric motors do all the hard work for you-:) more

Must do this 9/19/2012

I took the bike tour together with my 11- and 15-year olds. There is no better way of sightseeing with your children, it gives you an excellent opportunity to see things and nobody gets bored. On one hand is nice and relaxing but the on the other challenging because you ride almost 11 miles! Barbara, the tour guide was very professional and gave us lots of interesting fact about the places we have seen on the way. I had my camera with me and took many nice pictures of both Santa Monica and Venice. I would definitely recommend this tour to everybody with or without children. more
