What are people saying about Los Angeles

Joann_M, Oct 2026

Very thorough tour

Shawn was our guide, he worked very hard to show us all the places listed, he even stopped at a few extra places, explained the history of LA and Hollywood! It was very enjoyable, unfortunately it was a very hot day, 100 degrees. The stop at Griffith Park was a little too long, a half hour, and it was so hot, no place to sit or be in shade, it took 5 minutes to snap a photo of the Hollywood sign, then we had to stand in the sun and wait for our driver to come back, it wasn’t really the driver’s fault, he was just following the schedule. I’m sure it would have been fine had it not been so very hot, but in all I would recommend this tour

Guided Whale Watching Tour from Long Beach

Tyler_M, Oct 2026

Incredible time out on...

Incredible time out on the water! They never guarantee seeing any marine life, but I got pretty lucky. A small pod of orcas swam alongside our boat for the better part of the tour. Everything was awesome and the guides were knowledgeable. Only thing that sucked was the water on the wya back was really rough and a couple of people got seasick

DTLA Mirror on the Lake

We went on the Echo Park Swan boat excursion at night. The way the high rise buildings of DTLA mirror off the Lake is pretty Amazing! Great spot to connect with your significant other. Takes a team of two to get to the other side! lol Truly was a memorable evening.

Catalina Island City and Scenic Mount Ada Tour

Denise_S, Sept 2026

must try experience for first timers !

Best experience for first timers at Catalina Island!! Meet up was easy to find and the tour lasted about 55 minutes. We got to see great views and the tour guide made it fun learning about island and how many people operate here at Avalon. We got to see deer during our tour which made the trip over the top, overall i would 10/10 recommend !!!

Hollywood and Beverley Hills Key Sites Tour

It is a 3 hour long tour in an airconditioned van with complementary water given at the start. The check in was very efficient and we started on time. Our driver Adam was excellent. He gave a full running commentary during the whole trip and we did the 3 stops as advertised where he assisted with group pictures. Our tour took in all the sites as advertised and Adam managed the traffic conditions well whilst maintaining a good rapport with the group.

Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood

Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood Review: A Fun, Behind-the-Scenes Experience for Movie and TV Fans

The Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood was one of the best tours I have taken. We visited on Saturday, September 12, 2026, and I would give it 5 out of 5 stars. Even before check-in, the gift shop put us in a great mood. We love Friends, so finding its merchandise, along with items from other series we enjoy, was a great start. After check-in, we were split into groups for the tour. It was exciting to learn how movie and TV scenes are filmed and how sound is recorded. The tour featured references to Friends, Harry Potter, Batman, Superman, The Big Bang Theory, Argo, Ocean’s Eleven, Lucifer, and Shrinking. I will leave the details out so other visitors can discover them for themselves. We learned that filming was not happening during our weekend visit. That was a small letdown and makes me want to return another time. I also would have liked the guide to spend more time on productions from the last decade, although I still enjoyed the whole tour. If you love movies or TV and want to know how they are made, this tour is well worth the time and money. I definitely recommend it.

Best tour Guide/Driver

We had Shawn as our guide/driver. He is very knowledgeable, cordial and entertaining. This tour touched all areas described on the website. We toured on a Saturday so the traffic wasn't bad and Shawn was able to slow down to allow us to take pictures. This tour is the best way to experience Los Angeles in a day.

Hollywood, Beverly Hills and Celebrity Homes Tour by Open-Air Bus

Susan_M, Sept 2026

Remember to check in pre-trip

My sister and I really enjoyed this trip, appreciating Junior’s sense of humour and knowledge. We arrived early but didn’t check in at the office pre-trip because we didn’t know we had to. (I did a deep dive into the booking after the event and it does advise doing so somewhere but perhaps this information should be more prominent?) Anyway, I received a phone call from the booking office and, long story short, the bus didn’t leave without us, hence the well deserved, five star review.

Mulholland Trail Horseback Tour

Leana_P, Aug 2026

Horseback Riding Experience

We had a really great time on this one-hour horseback riding experience at the ranch! My horse was absolutely adorable, and the lady at the entrance was very kind and welcoming. One of the guides also kindly took some photos and videos of us, which was a really nice. One thing to keep in mind is that you cannot bring any bags with you, not even a small fanny pack, so I recommend wearing clothes with pockets to keep your phone with you. The only downside for me was the group size. There were around 20 people, which felt a little too large for this type of activity. A smaller group would have made the experience feel more personal and enjoyable. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely recommend it !

Downtown LA Lights: Your Private Sunset and Night Helicopter Tour

Jeffrey_S, Apr 2026

Best experience

I had an amazing experience with Anthelion Helicopters! It was my first helicopter ride and definitely unforgettable. The views were insane and seeing the coastline and city from above was something I’ve never experienced before. The ride felt smooth and safe the whole time. Our pilot was super friendly, explained everything clearly, and made us feel comfortable the entire time. Check in was easy and organized. I would 100% recommend this to anyone looking for a unique experience or planning something special.
