At Surf City Tours we’ve worked for years to craft the perfect tours- it’s not just a name! While other companies keep you stuck on a bus for 7–9 hours or require buying multiple different tours to see it all, we do things differently. Our tours cover everything you want to see, gives you plenty of time to explore off the bus, and gets you back to the beach with time to enjoy the rest of your day.
For reservations we ask that you book your date and time online. If you have any trouble at all we’re always available over the phone for questions and concerns. Just Click Here to place your reservation
We recommend parking at 1541 Ocean Ave. The parking entrance is on Ocean Ave right next to the Red O Cantina and Del Frisco Grill – just north of the Santa Monica Pier entrance. The price may vary, but it costs roughly $10 for all-day parking depending on the time of year.
Yes! The only tour that offers hotel pickups is The Perfect Los Angeles Tour and we pick up from hotels in Santa Monica, Marina Del Rey, and Venice Beach
When reserving “The Perfect LA Tour” you’ll be asked if you need a hotel pickup. Select yes and then choose your hotel from the drop-down menu. If you’re in the pickup area but don’t see your hotel on the list, give us a call at 800.913.9356 and we’ll see what we can do.
When selecting your hotel from the drop-down menu it should include the pickup time.
The Malibu Tour only has one departure time at 9:30AM because traffic in Malibu is unpredictable in the afternoon.
We recommend bringing sunscreen and a jacket, and of course any cameras or phones you have for photos. Even on a warmer day, it can get a bit chilly on the ride back, especially if you’re on an afternoon tour.
