It was great to look out the windows while someone familiar with the streets drove. We were picked up at the motel, shown around the city, given insider information and returned to the motel at the end of the day. Danny was super nice and informative. We were in a van with a total of 12 so we were very... More

Apart from the Hollywood scene, this city is one to avoid unless you can find ways around the traffic, the smog and congestion and drivers that jam pack the streets including the crosswalks when pedestrians have the cross walk. The streets are seldom policed and so drivers get away with murder. Long waits for busses make visitors to the area... More

I took the afternoon LA City Tour this past Monday and I absolutely loved it! I enjoyed it from the moment it started til the end. The tour guide Papi (David) was so informative and knew everything about the area. Very professional as well! The tour was on time and the bus was full. Will definitely do it again!

We were limited in time so this was a good and cheaper way to see the highlights. A taxi would have cost is more and this way we were able to avoid a lot of walking and searching for the sights. We booked it last minute and they picked us up from the hotel. The cost was reasonable other than... More

We went on the afternoon trip recently. The guide was full of gusto and lots of information. However as Europeans we found the 15 per cent top on top of a large fee very difficult to swallow. Also the bus whilst comfortable and new was not fit for purpose. It's restrictive window design and the low front window meant we... More

We went to Hollywood where there was a premeire of Cars 3 (I think) saw some stars like Owen Wilson, Larry the Cable Guy and a few stars from Modern Family. We took a Grey Line tour of the city-which was boring, nothing compare to the one in NYC. Beverly Hills was ok, downtown-its dead all boarded up buildings like... More

Spent at least 2 hours just to get to start !!! The shuttle was late to pick up and then drove us all the way to Santa Monica while picking up people along the way. Had to wait again to get on another shuttle heading to Disneyland!!! Waste our time and expensive. Will never ever come back!

Hey guys, I am 69 and lived in Rome, where I was born, Geneva, Amsterdam. Montreal, Athens, New York, Los Angeles and Toronto. A place where I feel at complete peace both physically and mentally is this area of Santa Monica; since I love people and privacy at the same level here is where I can connect with others fellow...

The tour was just OK. The guide was knowledgable, but we ended up stopping at places not very interesting, and NOT stopping at places that were. We spent a long time at the Hollywood Bowl, and just stopped to look thru the fence at the tar pits/park. We spent a long time at the farmers market, but just drove past... More
