Our guides were knowledgeable and very nice. We live locally and did not realize how much interesting architecture there was in LA. So happy to see and learn about it. Will recommend to others for sure.

I had a great time on the tour. Phil, the guide, was very knowledgeable and friendly. He was open to questions and gave great tips for other sites to check out in L.A. I really enjoyed hearing the history behind the buildings we saw, and two hours was the perfect amount of time. I enjoyed the tour and highly recommend.

This was a fabulous tour with gorgeous buildings, great stories and surprising little gems! Who knew Lalique designed panels for elevators and stained glass for a marquis? !! Phil was the perfect guide: knowledgeable, kind, funny.
