Was in LA on a stopover, with all day to kill I opted for the LA in a Day tour instead. Hills weren't too hard and all in the early stages of the tour, so you have the second half on flat ground. Glad I did this instead of sitting around LAX all day, saw some great sites.

My mother (56) and I (25) are both in good shape, but due to our limited biking experience, we were originally leaning towards the shorter Hollywood Tour. After being assured by the Bike and Hikes staff that the full LA in a Day tour would not be too strenuous, we decided to go for it. While the tour was doable,... More

We met our guide Michael at the Greek Theatre and I have to say he was great! There were only 2 of us on the hike and so we felt like we had our own private tour. He started off by asking us our fitness levels and then we set off on our way. We hiked up to the top... More

I'd never been to LA, and after taking the tour I felt like I knew my way around. It's a really fun way to get around and see so much. The tour guide was entertaining and personable and knew a lot of small tidbits and stories that helped give context to each of the neighborhoods. I would definitely do this... More

Our guide Aron was a jewel! We powered up the hills of Hollywood and coasted the beaches of Santa Monica and Venice, we road along the Los Angeles River (probably didn't know such existed). We kept the bikes for 3 days after the tour, the staff was very accommodating. The bikes were first rate equipment. If you want to get... More

When I read the reviews they made it seem like the biking wasn't to bad, laid back and lots of fun stops to rest and take pictures. That couldn't have been more wrong! Our tour guide was so far ahead and at several points I completely lost sight of the group. The tour guide never turned around to check on... More

So on our first day I thought we would do the bike tour of LA, however we didn't have much time so I booked us in for a hike in Griffith Park. Although the tour guide was very knowledgable, the hike is just up public footpaths so really you could do it yourself and save $50 pp. I think the... More

We grabbed a flyer from the hotel and called them as we wanted to see the city as we are from NorCal. So glad we did. Bill who one of the owners took us around. He was awesome took his time and was very friendly. These guys are not just in it for the money...seems like they truly want you... More

I visited LA alone in January. I was searching for a company that gave guided bike tours and subscribed myself to the Facebook page of Bikes and Hikes LA. When a great offer came around I emailed for a 3 hour tour. They advised me to take the LA in one day tour. I took their advise and I am... More
