    Great food tour with Scarlett C. It was over 100 degrees so there were only 5 of us (I think it’s usually a group of 12). Scarlett knew her LA history and shared many interesting facts. She was soft spoken so sometimes it was hard to hear her. There was a lot of food: half of a large almond croissant, pumpkin ravioli and bread, Thai skewers (1 chicken and 1 pork with sauces) with sticky rice, tacos (1, which was plenty by that point), vegan donut or ice cream to end the tour.

    Over the years, I have looked for food tours (in Europe, South America, other US cities) as way to experience the history and flavor of an area (pun sort of intended) because the best guides are those that can share the lore, the history and some interesting facts about an area. Anich did just that and she is a wonderful tour guide! Admittedly, I parked in an area a few blocks from the meeting point, and as I looked around the area, I wondered how I got there and what interesting thing I might see (other than the drunk guy pulling his face out of the sand walking off the beach – I really saw him!). And then I met Anich. She has a great personality and is an engaging young woman. The first thing she did was to point out a mural and she briefly told of the artist, described the work he did; and as the tour progressed, she noted a few more of his murals (yes, all were murals that you might give a glance to but not really give thought to, and Anich provided some points of interest and some context). The next thing to note is that Anich was able to tell a bit about the personal journey of the restaurant owners whose samples were featured on the tour, but in a personal way (not just: the tour company has a stop here). The tastings were ample and tasty. So, remember a few lines ago that I wondered what I would see? The tour took us through a wonderfully enchanting portion of Venice Beach that I would not have seen (or would have been interested in finding based on my impressions of where I parked) if I had not taken this tour. I recommend this tour with Anich. She is personable and likeable, knowledgeable about the history, sprinkles the tour with some pertinent information and lore, and the food is well selected! She is responsive to the needs of her small group and is interactive in a way that you would hope for.

    Our guide, Jess, was lovely and knowledgeable about the area, but we didn’t feel like it was so much of a food tour as much as a “lot of walking with not a lot of pay off tour.” More of a history tour than a food tour. We heard a bit about the area but the restaurants that were selected were somewhat random (except for Canter’s). We had hoped to see a little bit more in the farmers market where it seems like there were some “institutions” and the Thai place we went to was underwhelming with a sample of papaya salad. It was a nice day for walking which helped.

    We’ve been to LA before and were looking for something new and different. This was a fun way to discover some yummy spots in Santa Monica with a local guide!

    I took my sister on the Venice Beach food tour for her birthday. Loved the food, fun facts about Venice Beach, things I never knew even though I grew up in LA. Loved seeing the art and walking through places in Venice I have never been. Our tour guide Robbie was great.

    We started the day with a pick up from central Los Angeles. Yuriy was extremely accomodating, and even provided water for the car. With a group of 5, we headed to Temecula with Yuriy sharing his geogrpahic genius and jokes.
    The first location was paid for with the purchase of the trip. Yuriy was a great guide and photographer, as well as patient.
    We headed to the final location where we jad a beautiful wine flight and some amazing dinner as the sunset.
    Yuriy provided a great experience and we would all highly recommdnd him, and even do the tour again!

    I had an amazing experience on the Donut Tour! From start to finish, it felt like a day out with friends, thanks to Chad and the crew, who were not only incredibly knowledgeable but also personable and engaging.

    The variety of donuts we sampled was impressive, each one offering a unique flavor experience. However, the highlight for me was definitely the huckleberry donut, it was simply divine! The perfect balance of sweetness and tartness made it stand out as my absolute favorite.

    I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun and delicious way to explore the city. It’s not just about the donuts (although they are fantastic), but also about the great company and the wonderful atmosphere. Five stars all around!
