Love the Go City pass, super easy to use and very worth it for the price and actives that we have access too! and the app as well as the website was very easy to operate to purchase the tickets. One last thing, i would like to give a shoutout to the individual i spoke to over the phone to assure me of how the tickets and passes worked.

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.

Paul did a great job! He was knowledgeable and took his time with the tour. Thank you!

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

It was an interesting tour with a very knowledgeable driver/guide.
