About this Event
Travel back in time to the founding of Venice Beach and uncover its fascinating history on this 2-mile, 15-stop walking tour.
Join a Los Angeles local and occasional Business Insider travel writer for a walk through must-see Venice Beach highlights and secret spots you’ll only find on this tour.
This tour is perfect for curious travelers, families, and locals who want to understand more about forever-eclectic Venice Beach. Or, you know, anyone looking to justify eating cannolis by burning the calories first...
(Psst - Parents, we have multiple age-appropriate activities to keep kiddos entertained during our tour.)
Your guide will take you through 100-years of Venice’s history – from its founding as a resort town to its role as a haven for artists and immigrants to how it helped foster modern body building and skateboarding.
Plus, you’ll check out the classic, can’t-miss sights of Venice Beach – from Abbot Kinney Boulevard to the Venice Beach boardwalk to the Venice skatepark to Muscle Beach to the Venice Canals.
Tour participation is contingent on signing our waiver, which will be sent to your email prior to the start of the tour. Your guide will have hard copies as well.
