A very interesting tour of the studios (+-1hr) followed by free time (as long as you want to) to explore the sets of Friends, Bing Bang Theory, etc. The last part of the tour includes a visit to the hall where you can see various costumes, Harry Potter experiences, etc. All in all, count about 3-4 hours for the tour. You can also have some snacks/coffee/lunch here.

Our guide, John was funny and told us several interesting facts about the Hollywood sign. It was a good hike, with good picture spots and an unexpected climb all the way to the top of the sign, we were even higher than the Hollywood sign.

Elko was a great guide. That hike is definitely not for the faint of heart, but the view was beautiful. One of the highlights of our trip to LA. Wear comfortable shoes

Elko is super friendly funny and informative. Enjoy every minutes of it

Guided tour was very informative and fun. Great value.
