Visit legendary Muscle Beach, where Arnold Schwarzenegger trained before becoming a global superstar, and see the iconic Venice Skatepark overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

Learn about Venice’s deep artistic and literary history at the Poets of Venice Monument and discover the legacy of Venice West Café, once the center of LA’s Beat Generation scene, frequented by poets, writers, and musicians.

Along the way, hear fascinating stories about movies filmed in the area, including White Men Can't Jump, surf culture legends, rock music history, hidden gems, celebrity beach homes, and the transformation of Venice from a bohemian enclave into one of the most influential cultural neighborhoods in America.

The tour continues into Santa Monica, where you’ll experience the iconic Santa Monica Pier and Pacific Park, home of the historic end point of Route 66.
