The half-day tour was really perfect for discovering the most important spots. And all for a fair price! Sean was a great guide who had a lot of fun and didn't just read out random facts. The air conditioning on the bus wasn't working properly, and they even responded by putting a new bus in when they stopped at the Farmers Market. My only wish would be that they had a bit more time at the Santa Monica Pier, as 40 minutes was just enough for a walk and a coffee.

It was a good tour mainly because of our guide Shane. He has a lot of knowledge on celebrities and their houses. He also made some quirky remarks and funny jokes. Loved that he entertained us with snippets of music and or movie fragments. Unfortunately,we did not spot any celebrity but we did have fun. I find this to be a bit overpriced to be honest ah well, when in rome...

This tour was was great. I am going to come back to LA with my kids and I’ll definitely be booking this tour again, Johnny was great. He took some amazing pictures and videos of us at the Hollywood sign. The walking wasn’t bad at all either and the information shared along the way made you forget that you were even walking.

Very nice action-packed trip, out guide Chellsee was outstanding, A+ overall highly recommended for all who has little time to see the city

Carlos was a very good host/driver. I would definitely recommend you guys. Thank you for a great experience!
