“I recommend doing this tour 100% it was amazing. You’re able to take 7 hours and tour the best parts of LA. Santa Monica’s Pier was a great experience as well as the Hollywood walk of fame.

We’re from Miami, Florida and it was our first time in Los Angeles, California. What an amazing tour to include in your itinerary. Best part about it all was that our Tour a guide was the bestttttt.”

“I got into the van and the seats were ripped, worn and sooty!!!!Gross! Ok, overcome! The driver Alana with headset(microphone) was talking so loud, I had to put ear plugs, which didn’t help much!

Haha, I was the only female there, fine. We would go thru many rough areas of LA. I would have liked to hear a little history of even the slummy areas. I heard everything she mentioned, except Griffin Park. $99.00 no water…”

“We booked a private 3-hour tour with a German-speaking guide for €680. The theme we chose was “Hollywood & celebrities.” Both the driver and the guide were very nice guys, but unfortunately, they had no real knowledge about Los Angeles or the topic. For the most part, we just drove through Beverly Hills and other neighborhoods without any commentary or specific information. From time to time, there were some very superficial remarks like “Dan Aykroyd lives around here” or “Here is the Beverly Hills sign.” Even after we explicitly explained our expectations, things did not improve. Eventually, we drove in silence to the TCL Chinese Theatre. When I complained to…”
