Phil Rocks! We did the Old and New Downtown LA walking tour with our tour guide Phil and it was fantastic. Phil is extremely knowledgable about the history, architecture and cultures of LA. He is well researched and has great qualifications for this role. The tour was extremely informative and well worth the two hours at a reasonable price. This was one of many walking tours we have done in other cities and we highly recommend this one for the quality and experience.

Really compelling stories. Fantastic guide! A great way to reacquaint myself with downtown being a native.
