The tour guide, Ricky, was very nice and knowledgeable. Our issue with the tour was that we were let down by the locations visited. None of them were what we expected and some, such as Venice Beach, weren't even the part of town we were hoping to visit or that our guide said was nice. For example, at Venice, we were dropped at a dirty, run-down boardwalk that looked worse than the boardwalks I've been to in New Jersey and elsewhere, rather than the lovely canals and steet of murals I was hoping and requested to see. We didn't get close to the Hollywood sign and there wasn't really anything to do on Rodeo Drive. The Farmer's Market had excellent food, but, beyond that, was basically an outdoor mall. I appriciated the nice lunch break, though! As promised, the group was quite small, which was plesant. I'd highly suggest the tour opporaters re-evaluate the stops on this tour, the amount of time people realistically need for them, and if there are better things to see and do in these locations (there were). Thanks!
