1000/10 stars, exactly what we were looking for for our trip!!!
Our tour guide, Steve, was amazing! He was kind and thoughtful, and even offered to drive us to a specific viewing spot. Steve also offered the group cold water bottles, which we greatly appreciated.
Steve was insightful and provided unique and entertaining information about all the places that we passed and stopped by.
Overall, my trip mate and I genuinely enjoyed the entire trip, and highly recommend it to others!!!

This is the tour to book :-)
This was so much fun! We went on Friday 8/14 and Adam was our driver and tour guide and we loved his enthusiasm and fun personality! He told us lots of interesting things about the area and made a point to ask us questions and make it an interactive experience. He also took his time to make sure everyone got the photos they wanted. He had great tips for how to pose/where to stand and took excellent photos. We were stuck in some traffic and he didn’t get frustrated, just kept on telling us fun facts about the area and making jokes. I went on this trip with my son and we made some great memories! Thank you!

Well worth the time and money
The tour actually exceeded expectations. I was worried 5.5 hours was gonna be too long but it was just right. And at first thought $69 pp was pricey. But if you consider all the driving you’d have to do and pay for parking at each stop, we realized it was well worth it. Not to mention that we got dropped off and picked up right at the entrance to everything. Our tour guide Mike impressed us with his LA driving skills. Glad we did not have to navigate that Saturday traffic nightmare at Griffith observatory. The tour was a really great “highlights” tour. A little of everything. We even got all the way to Santa Monica Pier to check out the ocean.

Exceptional Tour Guides
Michaela and Jon kept the whole gang really entertained along with their cute dog, it felt nice having all kinds of social media trendy shots been taken in front of the sign. Jon is really quirky but looked out for everyone throughout the expedition. 10/10 would do it again.

Great tour, great fun!
We really enjoyed this tour! Our driver Hanz, was very knowledgable, and shared so many interesting facts that we would have never known! This particular bus is great for staying cool, even though the bus is open to the air, it has a shade on top to keep the passengers cooler and prevent sunburn. We noticed as we were travelling around that many of the tour busses did not have a shade. We would highly recommend!!

Fun day with the family
Last minute activity with family who is visiting and they loved it. I would go only if you really are a fan of whatever movies/shows they are known for. The whole activity was more like ~5 hours because we liked walking around and did buy a few souvenirs at the shop. It was a very hot day and you could bring a water bottle with you on the tram tour. Also remember to bring a hat and sunglasses.

The best tour experience ever
Sean was our tour guide and chauffeur. We were picked up on time, he explained the expectations of the trip, the time constraints and answered any questions we had. He is very knowledgeable about California, went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. I would highly recommend Sean and VIP tours.

Don’t Expect Long Stops—Do Expect a Great Day!
This full-day Best of LA tour was a fantastic way to see Los Angeles in just one day! It was fast-paced, well-organized, and covered many of the city’s most iconic sights.
Our driver and tour guide, Key, was engaging, knowledgeable, and kept the day fun from start to finish. The bus was clean and very comfortable, and on an unusually hot Southern California day, the complimentary cold bottled water was a much-appreciated touch.
A heads-up for anyone booking, this tour involves quite a bit of walking, and the stops are intentionally brief. You’ll have enough time to take photos and do a little exploring before heading to the next destination. If you’re looking for an in-depth tour of each location, this isn’t it—but if your goal is to see the highlights of LA in a single day, it’s perfect.
I highly recommend this tour and would absolutely do it again!

Great experience
We are locals and decided to take the tour to see and test our knowledge about Los Angeles. We were impressed, laughed a lot and we were really entertained by the tour guide. The ride was smooth and we were able to take great pictures. We highly recommend this tour company.

Nice trip!
This is a great tour to get a good overview of LA. From the ocean to the hills of Griffith Park and lots of fun in between. Our guide, Sammy, was friendly and informative. Just know that traffic and tardy bus mates can impact the end time. Be a bit flexible on when it ends.

Great tour for visitors to see a lot in a short amount of time.
Friendly tour guides. There were clean restrooms at the meet up location along with snacks and beverages for purchase. This tour is best for sitting back and enjoying things, not so much for getting photos. Our guide, George, made everyone feel welcome and kept everyone fully engaged throughout the tour. His information was informative, appropriate, and enjoyable. We drive way up high into the hills and passed several celebrity homes. We also drove through Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive, and ended at Hollywood Walk of Fame. Our guide stopped at one location to allow everyone to get out and take a few photos. This is an Open air vehicle, so being a jacket and hair tie. We covered a lot of ground and it was great for first time visitors who have very little time to see everything! He allowed us to choose to get out near the Chinese theater or continue back to the tour company. This was very convenient for my party to explore that area just a little longer. He also offered three great suggestions for guests to spend the reminder of their evening in the area.
I highly recommend this tour.

Fun and Interesting
It was overall an interesting experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and very fun. The drive was a bit dizzying with the sudden breaking but it added to the overall ambiance. The weather was a little hot (especially if you are sitting at the side near the door).

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Sprawling LA doesn’t have one city center (and it has some pretty gnarly traffic), so one of the best ways to see a specific area is to plan a Los Angeles day trip. Choose what you want to explore, be it the Hollywood sign, celebrity homes, Beverly Hills, the beaches, Hollywood, or more, and make a day of it. Either book a privately guided tour, or make some new friends by booking group bus tours, walking tours, or even a paddle-boat tour of La La Land.
