  • Santa Monica Pier - A popular spot for both the locals and the tourists. There are many attractions (e.g. the aquarium, a video game arcade or an iconic carousel) and also many places to get food. You can choose from a variety of cuisines – burgers, pizzas or seafood are all to be found there.

The Pacific Park, an amusement park including a solar-powered Ferris wheel, is also a great place to visit. Among its other attractions are e.g. West Coaster, Bumper Cars or Mini Pirate Ship.

  • Venice Beach Boardwalk - You haven’t seen it all until you’ve seen Venice! There is a sandy three-mile beach here, but that is not what attracts visitors. You go to Venice to shop and gawk. During the summer season and on weekends, there is street entertainment at every intersection along Ocean Front Walk. Street performers include instrumental musicians, singers, jugglers, acrobats, mimes, comics, magicians, prophets, fortune tellers, and other assorted entertainers. You will see people with tricolor hairdos, painted faces, weird tattoos, and outlandish clothing–or lack of it.

The Boardwalk is a virtual sidewalk circus, a walk ‘n’ rolling skin show. There are lots of funky shops, too, if you want to eat out of the ordinary or buy an unusual souvenir or T-shirt. There are courts for basketball, handball, shuffleboard and paddle tennis. Muscle Beach is a special area where fanatic bodybuilders pump iron in a public show of strength.

  • Anaheim - Return to the meeting point or be dropped off at the designated pickup location based on the chosen option.

Great Private Tours in LA and SD - Our family took 2 private tours with Best Coast Tours; one was a 4 hour tour of Los Angeles and the other was a 4 hour tour of San Diego. Our tour guide, Joseph, was excellent. On both occasions, he picked us up at a pre-determined meeting place and then drove to each city. Joseph provided us with great information on the history and culture of each city and we made stops at many of the city highlights. In LA, we stopped at the Hollywood Walk of Fame and Rodeo Drive. We travelled up Mulholland Drive and saw the Hollywood sign and many celebrity homes. In SD, we stopped at Old Town, the Coronado hotel, La Jolla Cove and Mt. Soledad as well as driving through other sections of the city. Joseph was a great tour guide and our family thoroughly enjoyed the tours.

Joseph is THE MAN - Our guide was Joseph. Incredibly knowledgeable gentleman, knows LA like the back of his hand. Any questions you have about any miscellaneous building he can give a full history of. Couldn't recommend the tour anymore.

Seeing the best of LA hastle free with Best Coast Tours - This was such a well run tour…so relaxed while fitting in all if the things anyone would like to see in Los Angeles… my husband and I swore off tours 30 years ago after a disappointing experience in Hawaii, but decided to try this tour. We were so impressed, had the best day, and will use this company again for another tour, the next time we visit Orange County. Joseph, our tour leader, was so informative, mellow and pleasant…despite the occasional traffic we encountered…he had a great music playlist for our enjoyment… we’d recommend Best Coast Tours to everyone visiting Southern California!

Perfect tour - Amazing tour!! Joe was the full of great stories and facts. I was nervous going on the tour alone but he made me feel so comfortable as soon as I got on the bus. He picked me right at the front door of my resort! I saw so many different areas of Los Angeles and we made lots of stops so I was able to get out and explore. I would recommend this tour 100%.
