Overview
Your bike tour begins at the iconic Grand Central Market and features the highlights of Downtown Los Angeles. We narrate the different eras of Los Angeles as we ride through Grand Park, to Broadway’s classic theaters, The Broad and MOCA Art Museums, Bradbury Building, Music Center, Disney Concert Hall, Union Station, and City Hall. We break at Olvera Street, with time to wander L.A.’s oldest neighborhood and marketplace. This tour visits the top 10 tourist destinations, and hidden gems, of DTLA. Our guides focus on history and cultural narration, with a little true crime and movie industry lore on an easy, 2.5 hour bike ride. We return to Grand Central Market in time for lunch. Taking our bike tour is the best way to see the many attractions of downtown, in a short period of time, without the hassle of parking and traffic. The bike ride is designed for casual bike riders, with much of the tour in bike lanes. If you want to see and learn a lot in a few hours this is the tour for you.

We ended up being the only two for the tour and had a private tour experience! Jen was an amazing guide and super knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend and will attend another bike tour next time in LA!
Fun & informative tour of downtown LA
Published on Dec, 2024
We had a great time. I went with my son who’s not that experienced a rider but he was able to keep up. It helped that we were the only ones on the tour besides the guide so we didn’t hold anyone up. The guide was very patient. It was 2.5 hours & we didn’t hold anyone 6 miles. I think it’s normally 8 but we cut it short since my son was tired. We got to see a lot - lots of famous buildings including the “haunted hotel”, iconic theaters, the intercontinental, ritz Carlton the Mexican market, the Crypto arena (formerly Staples Center) and the municipal buildings. It was almost all flat & about half of it was on protected bike lanes.
Best way to see DTLA !

Excellent and fun way to see the city. Tour director was excellent. Relatively flat surface for biking. The park you ride through has some ramps but not difficult .
