Griffith Observatory Guided Tour and Planetarium Ticket Option

Overview

Given how popular and large Griffith Observatory is, it can be difficult to get to and even more so to navigate the building once you’re there.

This historic landmark features 67,000 square feet of exhibition space, a public observatory and a planetarium. So how can you possibly experience it all without missing anything?

We have the pros here to help! This small-group tour, designed by some of the observatory’s former employees, will enhance your experience by taking you on a curated journey through space and time. We cover everything from science and history to architecture and movie trivia.

And don’t forget the opportunity to add a show in the world-famous planetarium theater with our special ticket option. It’s a 40-minute immersive show with live narration that is truly out of this world! However, this interstellar option is only for ages 5 and older.

Ready to discover the wonders of Griffith Observatory? We can’t wait to show you the real stars of LA!

Super fun tour. Dara was informative, entertaining, and very professional. The observatory is a really beautiful spot with great views. The museum and exhibit was interesting - that coupled with Dara's extensive knowledge, the whole tour was definitely a memorable experience. Thanks again!

Estavan was extremely knowledgeable and personable. The tour started on time and his Experience First attire made him easy to find at the meeting point. The tour was jam-packed with knowledge you wouldn't find by just walking through the Observatory on your own. By the end, I felt like I left with my expectations far exceeded.
