What To Expect

Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum

LOS ANGELES COLISEUM The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum is an American sports stadium located in the Exposition Park. The stadium serves as the home to the University of Southern California (USC) Trojans football team.The Coliseum is the first stadium to have hosted the Summer Olympic Games twice, in 1932 and 1984. DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES Unlike other large cities, many people visit Los Angeles without ever setting foot Downtown. That’s a shame, since Downtown LA is rich with historic architecture and cultural attractions, not to mention sports and entertainment complexes. This slide show gives you a preview of some of the cool things to do in Downtown Los Angeles that are worth a visit.

Griffith Observatory

GRIFFITH PARK OBSERVATORY,Hollywood Sign: The observatory is a popular tourist attraction with an excellent view of the Hollywood Sign, and an extensive array of space and science-related displays.

Hollywood Walk of Fame

WALK OF FAME (Hollywood Blvd) Grauman's Chinese Theatre - The Hollywood Walk of Fame - - Kodak Theater, (Home of the Oscars) - The Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel , and many more famous places too numerous to list... Since the first star was awarded to Joanne Woodward, in 1960, celebrities and fictional characters that have contributed to the entertainment industry here have recognized with a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame. There are now more than 2,300 of these five-pointed bronze stars including some of the most recent honorees such as Halle Berry, Jamie Foxx and Forrest Whitaker and The Munchkins, stars of the 1939 film “The Wizard of Oz.

Sunset Plaza

Lunch at Mel's Diner:The ultimate 50’s dining experience! George Lucas filmed scenes for American Graffiti at a Mel’s Diner. The one on Sunset Strip, where we stop for lunch on the full-day tour, is still a great place for celebrity spotting! You don’t “have” to have lunch here – but why wouldn’t you want to? You just might recognize someone famous at the next table. Don’t let their clever disguise (Rayban(tm) sunglasses) fool you! Dine with the stars! (lunch is not included).

Beverly Hills

Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive: This is a city where the pawn shops are called “collateral lenders,” and make quick loans on Mercedes and Ferraris instead of toasters. This is a city where some of the clothing stores require customers to make advance reservations to shop, and where shoppers may routinely drop $100,000 or more in a single visit to a boutique on Rodeo Drive or Wilshire Blvd. A city where the post office offers valet parking. This town’s “Sister City” is none other than Cannes, France.

Santa Monica

Santa Monica Beach: Follow America’s most famous cross country highway to the Pacific Ocean, and you will find yourself at the Santa Monica Pier. Designed as a pleasure palace and park a century ago, currently this restored family playground is gearing up for its 100th Gala in 2009.

Venice Beach

Venice Beach: Hilary Duff shot a video here, Jim Morrison and the Doors and bandleader Benny Goodman both got their careers started here, and now it is the place actors Jane Fonda, Viggo Mortensen and Elijah Wood call home. It’s Venice Beach, the free-spirited beach resort town beloved for its Bohemian character, boutiques, street performers, artists, fortune tellers on the boardwalk and as a stellar place for people-watching (not to mention star-gazing)!Muscle beach and much more.... Due to Venice Beach city conditions, we might substitute Venice Beach to Fisherman's Village in Marina Del Rey.

The tour provider advertises multiple tours on Viator, with variations to each. I deliberately chose the tour I did for the itinerary and timing of visits. I ended up getting a similar tour which did not include 20 minutes at Griffith Observatory, 5 minutes at Santa Monica Pier, etc. I reached out to tour provided and they admitted that that they falsely advertised their tours and only have one. IMO this is false advertising. Overall, you see all the highlights but did not get to see the itinerary I paid for.

Thanks for taking the time to submit your comments. I am concerned about what you said about advertising multiple tours on Viator. We have only one tour. I am curious as to who you spoke to to "admitted...they falsely advertised". We have not stopped at Santa Monica Pier since the City has imposed significant parking restrctions there during the Covid lock-down. The Griffith Observatory stop is only for a 5 minute Hollywood sign photo opportunity. Your concluding line: "you see all the highlights but did not get to see the itinerary.." is very confusing. If you were able to compare various tours offered by a tour operator, I suspect you were reading some other company's promotional materials. Again, we offer only one tour.

John was our excellent tour guide for our LA tour! It was exactly the tour we were looking for since we had never experienced this city before yesterday. We actually had a private tour that included just the 6 of us traveling together. It was an amazing day thanks to John and all his knowledge of the area!

Thanks for submitting your review. Yes, I agree, it is a long excursion. Los Angeles is a big place and the attractions are spread out. We attempt to minimize the time aboard the bus with numerous stops. I have relayed your "great driver" comment on to your guide. We sincerely appreciate your recommendation to others.
