Fun day in Hollywood!

Pat_W, Jan 2026
Good variety of things to see, excellent description of the history and area highlights, and very knowledgeable guide.

Great Tour Guide

Emily_K, Aug 2025
I had a few hours to spare on my business trip and wanted to see a few sites in Los Angeles from someone who is local and will drive. This was a great solution. The tour guide was knowledgeable about the spots and gave good narrative while we drove around town.

What a con

nicola_h, Jul 2025
We’re not at the pickup place up place as planned. Refused to refund money when it was their fault After enquiry not one other tour operator had heard of them

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Please ignore this review as the poster did not experience our tours. We always wait for our guests and reach out for them to contact us to take the tour as was in this case. Thank you for your consideration.

I enjoyed the tour around...

Cecelia_Y, Jul 2025
I enjoyed the tour around the city. The driver was very through. We had a private tour. I only wish I had been notified ahead of time that we would be the only ones on the tour. He made sure he explained everything Thank you

Interesting

Sandra_D, Jan 2025
We enjoyed the conversations with the driver, but we felt he shortened our trip although he said it was because traffic was light.

Not as expected

Shakailah_H, Aug 2024
Experience was not what we expected. Our tour guide was nice but we were picked in his old personal truck and drove around the city with the windows down. He did stop to take our picture quickly by the Hollywood sign, but that was the only stop despite the disruption showing more stops. Very misleading , but I guess we did get to see Hollywood.

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Thank you for selecting our tour. We are glad you enjoyed the tour but are surprised at some of your comments. The tour was shown as advertised including Hollywood sign stop. Vehicle is a company vehicle with air conditioning option or open air which was chosen by guest. We hope to see you again next time.

Couldn't see

Meg_B, Jul 2024
I couldn't see anything. I sat in the front seat, and my view was the area between the roof of the van and the top of windshield. I spent $80+ to see the interior of a van. It is the job of the company to make sure that EVERY passenger can see the landscape at least 80% of the time, not 0%. Thankfully my husband took pics of things because by the time we drove past something, it was a blur. Because I couldn't see anything, I watched the driver drive. Driver needs a handsfree mic. Also, driver needs a Playlist so he stops driving and being on his phone at the same time. Illegal U-turns. Started late. Advertised as a 2.5 hour experience. Not that long. The stop to take a pic of the Hollywood sign was NOT in a safe location. Meaning the only way to get a decent pic was to stand IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY ROAD. NOT recommending this tour company.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Thank you for selecting our tour, though we are surprised at your comments. We try to ensure each passenger has a clear view and safety is our top priority. We have a 100% safety record. Time for given tour depends on traffic and other conditions.

Not as expected

STillman, Jun 2024
This tour was not as expected nor explained when we purchased it. It was a private tour with a tour guide in his personal SUV just our family. We basically did a lot of riding around while he pointed out attractions and had a bathroom and coffee break. Our driver was very nice and courteous, but this is not the trip or tour expected per the description given by the agent on the phone.

Response from Host, Jun 2024

Thank you for your review. Though we are surprised at your comments, the tour was given and shown just as advertised. The number of guests determines what size vehicle is used at the tour time. We hope you enjoyed your tour and look forward to seeing you soon.

Hollywood tour

cdinspain, May 2024
We were the only people booked but the guys still turned up and didn't cancel so was very good trip and worth the money

Excellent tour

Tangier_W, Apr 2024
The tour guide was excellent and was very interactive with the group. He provided us with a lasting effect and made it memorable.

Hollywood first timers

Michele_M, Mar 2024
Seeing a lot of sites that we were familiar with but probably wouldn't have been able to navigate through Hollywood to see them all. Armond was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Beverly hills was not what we expected. Hollywood sign was awesome and we got some great picks.

Hollywood tour

Michele_M, Mar 2024
Beverly hills not what we expected. Took us through the most known places amongst Hollywood. Would have missed alot of the sites.

We came late but our tour...

Tracy_B, Mar 2024
We came late but our tour guide gave us a very detailed tour of the city. Our tour guide was really nice.

California Guide

Sara_W, Dec 2023
The guide provided great history of the town. He was very personable and kind also. I would enjoy taking another tour with him.

Don't book this tour! Not worth it.

Omolola_O, Oct 2023
This tour was unpleasant from beginning to end. The tour guide was unapologetically late by 40 minutes and decided to complete the tour 40 minutes early due to his tardiness (wasted our time and money). After his unprofessionalism, he expected a $10 tip. Also, bring a sweater or jacket because this tour bus is open (no windows) just a makeshift roof. Overall, the tour was forgettable and lackluster. I recommend paying more elsewhere for a day tour; scan over the reviews before you book.

Response from Host, Oct 2023

We thank you for selecting our tour. We are surprised that your tour began late as we are almost always punctual.

Great guide

Kelsey_K, Sep 2023
Arman was an excellent guide! He took his time at the sites, gave detailed explanations, and took pictures of us!

Great tour with a guy who knew the best restaurants!

Yvonne_A, Sep 2023
We had the best tour guy ever! He knew everything about Hollywood and Beverly Hills; he suggested what restaurants were popular to go to for lunch and ones for dinner; was friendly and funny.

Great Experience

Nikki_G, Aug 2023
Totally enjoyed the tour. The Tour Guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. We arrived late and was not in the correct meeting location and he made what could have been a disaster a wonderful experience.

Try hiking around instead

Candace_S, Feb 2023
116 bucks One and a half hours stopped for 3 min to take a pic of Hollywood sign the rest just flying by landmarks. It was entertaining but ridiculously priced for what ya got

Response from Host, Feb 2023

We thank you for selecting our tour and glad you enjoyed all sights, history and landmarks that were included in the tour. The cost of the tour is far less than what you posted per person. The overall time of the tour depends on various factors such as group size and traffic conditions at the time of tour. We look forward to your next trip and hope to see you again on another tour!

Good time

Amanda_C, Dec 2022
Meant to tip the driver more, realized after those bills were all $1s that I gave. So sorry! Lots of iconic places to see

I felt our tour was...

Roxane_T, Nov 2022
I felt our tour was incomplete and rushed. We were taken to a distant location from the Hollywood sign to get a picture with the sign in the far distance. Hollywood tour was very rushed; we past rodeo drive by an outside street etc.

Response from Host, Nov 2022

We are surprised at your remarks since we never rush our guests whatsoever on out tours, and yours was no exception. We stopped at the best Hollywood sign view location for your photo memories, and showed you Rodeo Drive, but not all guests choose to stop there for photos as you decided. We look forward to your next visit to Hollywood!

A very good tour. Suggestion: visit homes of current stars.

Valerie_S, Sep 2022

The tour needs a refresh.

Cody_H, Aug 2022
We rescheduled based on the driver’s request with the promise of additional sites, but this “half day” tour ended in less than two hours with no additional sites. The van was dated with small windows and the references were quite dated.

Response from Host, Aug 2022

We are surprised at your comments, but we provide the best tour in a custom tour vehicle for maximum comfort. Tour times are estimated and depend on factors such as traffic and group size. We provided a special stop at Hollywood Sign unique area for your group. We hope you will visit and take our tour again next time you visit Hollywood!!

Horrible experience.

Nizar_J, Jun 2022
Showed up for our scheduled tour at 1:45 for our 2 PM tour, after driving 1 hour from Newport Beach only to have them tell us they can't take us at 2 and to wait until 4. Are you freaking serious??? Why bother requiring people to book a specific time if you can't fulfill it??? My family was PISSED and we will NEVER book through Viator ever again. The refund didn't make up for lost time and a terrible experience on our vacation. Do a better job vetting your tour operators!!!!

Response from Host, Jun 2022

During peak summer months, we try to accommodate our guests with the best scheduling possible. On occasion during weekends and holidays, it is possible to have a short delay of one hour, or in the longest time, up to a two hour waiting period. We try our best to avoid these situations which are not common, even during the peak summer season.

Memorable Experience

Dwayne_W, Jun 2022
Our guide, Roger was top notch. He was quite capable at leading groups of people on a truly memorable excursion in some very unique settings. This trip was well worth the earlier miscommunication prior to tour starting. I would definitely recommend it anyone considering to book such a tour.

Awesome Hollywood Tour

Sandra_F, Jan 2022
Our driver was very informative and seemed to know so many facts about Hollywood & the surrounding area. We weren't rushed and got to experience Hollywood/LA area in the time allotted.

Response from Host, Jan 2022

So glad you enjoyed your tour with us! Thank you for selecting us. We hope you return again soon for another Hollywood adventure!!!

Don’t waste your money on this one.

J_D, Jan 2022
First of all, this was slated as a “tour in a luxury vehicle.” The van was an old dodge van and light years away from from luxury. The cup holder slid around the floor and we had to pass it up and down the aisle to get our coffee… We were not shown a single celebrity home. Saw very little of Beverly Hills. There was limited knowledge by tour guide, just very broad and general info like “rock n roll bands stayed there and threw bottles out the window or there’s a lot of fun had in Hollywood…” After the tour my son said we would have had more fun if we just drove and didn’t talk… that statement sums up our experience well… Completely wasted several hours and over $350 on this tour. You’re better off finding a double decker open air bus tour where they actually show you Beverly Hills, celebrity homes and have more specific and fun information…

Response from Host, Jan 2022

We are surprised you didn't appreciate your tour as we offer the most exclusive Hollywood & Beverly Hills Tours enjoyed by our guests from across the USA & around the world. We use the best tour vehicles for comfort, convenience & safety for enjoyment and best views. Our tour guide is the most knowledgeable and a cultural expert and Hollywood historian. We go to places and special location not accessible by large, uncomfortable and impersonable red bus tours. We showed historic Hollywood & Beverly Hills neighborhoods of celebrities, reality TV show locations and mansions of great significance in Los Angeles. We hope you have safe travels and return once again for another experience!

Great tour!

Sabrina_B, Jan 2022
Visiting from NC. Armen was our guide and was fantastic. Very informative and enthusiastic. Would highly recommend.

Response from Host, Jan 2022

We are so glad you enjoyed your tour and hope you return again for another great experience!! Safe travels and best wishes for a happy & healthy New Year 2022.

We had a horrible...

James_M, Dec 2021
We had a horrible experience because of the weather, however, the tour company should be better prepared for these types of conditions. Having poncho’s, umbrellas or having a closed in van would have made our experience so much better! We did tip our guide Roger very well as we knew it wasn’t his fault. We were also disappointed with the tour because most of the homes were previously owned by any such celebrities… would have been much better if we saw homes that were currently lived in by celebrities.

Response from Host, Dec 2021

We are surprised you had a less than great time, but we cannot control the weather, as we have few rainy days in California. Many celebrities move from mansions to seek privacy and previous residences are considered historic. We are glad you appreciated your tour guide.

Great tour!

Meredith_C, Dec 2021
The tour guide was very knowledgeable, had great anecdotes, was entertaining, and also took great photos of us with the Hollywood sign. A great experience, would highly recommend to anyone.

Response from Host, Dec 2021

Thank you, we appreciate you and hope you return to take another tour with us again!! Best wishes and Happy Holidays!
