We’ve been to LA many times but we haven’t ever spent much time in downtown. Our tour guide was excellent. He combined LA history with the discussion of the architecture of the buildings we viewed. We definitely learned a lot.

Thanks for joining us. We visit the Walt Disney Concert Hall on another downtown LA tour. Due to the vast size of Downtown LA, we have 3 historical tours with different itineraries and highlights. We try to prevent overlapping among all 3, so we've had to feature only select buildings on certain tours. To see more buildings of Downtown LA, check out more tours we offer.
