Delicious start to 2026!! - This was such a fun and delicious tour! I took my daughter as part of her Christmas gift and our guide Chad did not disappoint! He shared so much knowledge: the history of the restaurants, how they craft their donuts, which donuts to try. He even shared some facts about the city of Santa Monica and how the donut tour was created. Wish I could give him more stars. The donuts were literally the best I’ve had in my 50 years. 😂 Book this delightful tour. You won’t regret it. Thanks again, Chad!

Awesome donut tours - Chad really goes above and beyond on his tours. His recommendations for donuts and the desserts are great but he also tailors it to what the client enjoys. The stories Chad tells are entertaining and it was a memorable conversation and experience!
