Fun, flavor filled and colorful food tour in Venice Beach - 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.

Venice food tour - Robbie was a great guide. He told us the history of Venice as well as talking about the food. It was a warm day so he adjusted his speed to fit our needs.

Showcases the west side's best restaurants and destinations - As a Los Angeles local and food enthusiast I was super impressed with this experience. The tour is engaging in the history of venice and showcases some of the best food in the area I did not know about. The pace of the tour and the destinations flows together great and Robbie was an awesome tour guide with lots of additional knowledge and recommendations.

An unforgettable magical experience - Wow! What an incredible tour. I honestly couldn't imagine a better few hours in LA. Our hilarious and very knowledgeable tour guide Robbie made the whole experience seamless. It was like hanging out with a cool local who knew all the best spots in the neighborhood. The whole experience was planned so well starting off with delicious pastries and coffee on a dreamy garden patio, where we got a really funny and interesting history lesson about Venice. Then walked through the world famous streets of Venice in the glorious sunshine before sitting down for lunch at the very chic Butchers Daughter. Amazing people watching, very yummy food, beautiful surroundings this was really the fabulous crescendo of an unforgettable day. We then explored Abbott Kinney and Robbie had some more delicious tricks up his sleeve! Don't want to give everything away! We then headed to the beach and gazed out at the sparking Pacific Ocean as we watched all the skateboarders, street performers and other colorful local characters. Even though I was starting to feel full from all the amazing food, I made room for some absolutely knock out tacos by the beach and some of the best gelato I've ever tried at our final two spots. Do yourself a favor and book this tour! It was the highlight of my whole time in LA, an unforgettable magical experience.

This tour is a MUST for visitors and residents of Venice alike - 5/5 STARS!!! - I learned SO much about Venice on this very special tour with our wonderful guide, Robbie! Each of the 5 stops brought something special to the tour and the selection of dishes at each stop was top-notch. I especially loved how Robbie implemented historical context into each stop - providing us with so much interesting information about history, culture and architecture. Again, this tour is a MUST for anyone who finds themselves in Venice!!

A city’s amazing food and rich history - My boyfriend and I had such a wonderful day going on this little adventure!! We’re both big foodies and I also LOVE learning more about a place’s history when I travel. This was so fun to get a bit of both in while enjoying the weather. Venice’s history is so interesting and was not expecting today to be rich in storytelling as the food was. I feel like the amount of time and variety of options we had was what really sold me on this being such an all-around experience. Our first stops were like brunch appetizers, I’m not normally big on pastries but was BLOWN away by all the different types we got to try. And then next was a vegetarian restaurant that I didn’t even REALIZE or miss the meat when I found out. We got this calamari-style fried mushroom dish that has me hooked, a whole new world for me. I think for me I’m excited that I got to get out of my comfort zone in ways I wouldn’t have normally. I love new experiences and trying new things but think the curation that is done to get a variety of food options AND a rich storytelling from a really funny, knowledgeable person that made me feel so comfortable and our whole experience all the more memorable. So excited to try the DTLA one next!!!

Great tour!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - The food was delicious and so was our tour guide Robbie 😜. I had been to one of the restaurants before but the rest were great new finds and we tried new dishes at the restaurant I had been to so it was well worth it.

Exceptional Food, Beautiful Location - This tour exceeded my expectations! Every stop we made was exceptionally delicious and unique. Between each bite was a leisurely walk through charming historic neighborhoods ultimately leading us to the beach. We got some interesting Venice history and lore from our very entertaining tour guide. My fiancée and I thoroughly enjoyed this nicely curated cross-section of the world class cuisine Venice has to offer. Highly recommend!!

Unbelievable food, cool Venice Beach vibes, and an amazing guide - I’d give 6 stars if I could! - Robbie, our tour guide, was a charismatic maestro orchestrating a symphony of flavors in Venice Beach. The tour kicked off at Gjusta, a bakery that's a slice of heaven on earth. The pastries were not just food, they were an experience, each bite a testament to the craft of baking. Then, we were whisked away to The Butcher's Daughter. A place that hums with the energy of LA, serving dishes that are a love letter to fresh produce. It was like tasting sunshine on a plate. Our next stop, Gjelina Take Away, was an ode to the humble pizza. Each slice was a harmonious blend of fresh ingredients and traditional techniques, a melody of flavors that had us dancing in delight. Teddy's Red Tacos was a revelation. Robbie introduced us to the world of authentic street tacos, each one a masterpiece in its own right. The flavors were bold and unapologetic, a symphony of taste that was both comforting and exciting. The grand finale was at Jenny's Ice Cream. Each scoop was a celebration of sweet indulgence, a perfect ending to a day of culinary exploration. Robbie's passion and knowledge elevated this tour from great to unforgettable. His stories and insights added layers of depth to each bite, making this not just a food tour, but a journey through the culinary soul of Venice Beach.
