Before you book in La Jolla
Check the live product page before booking. Departure details, activity order, inclusions, and available options can change.
La Jolla booking checklist
- Check the included items carefully, since each tour confirms a different set of bicycle and helmet provisions and only one adds refreshments.
- One tour states biking experience and a minimum height requirement, so confirm that fit before booking if that applies to you.
- None of the three includes gratuities, and one also excludes meals, so plan separately for anything beyond the confirmed inclusions.
