I searched a lot of the 2-5 hour tours...take this one. Even though it's not open air, it works towards your advantage because being in a regular white or black van you can go places the "tour" vans cannot! Great guide (musician with mustache). Great tour. PERFECT length too.

Riders on the storm

Lorinda_B, Apr 2026
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and had some fun music and movies that correlated well and was a cool touch to some of the history! Really liked the Doors section of the tour. He was very accommodating! He took pictures of all of us at the Hollywood sign and knew just the right angles!!

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you for the amazing review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the mix of history, music, and movie moments—it’s great to hear those touches made the tour even more special.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you so much for the amazing and detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear that after comparing different options, you chose our tour and had such a great experience. You’re absolutely right—our vans allow us to access areas that larger open-air buses can’t, which helps us create a more unique and up-close Los Angeles tour. We’re glad you saw that as an advantage! It’s also great to hear you enjoyed your guide (the musician with the mustache sounds like a fan favorite 😊) and that the tour length felt just right. That balance is exactly what we aim for at Golden Ticket LA. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back soon for another unforgettable LA adventure!

Excellent tour to see all the major spots in just three hours

Jennifer_S, Jan 2026
Mario was awesome! We got to see so many of the “major” sightseeing spots in just 3 hours. Don’t expect to see any celebrity homes because they’re either in a gated community or have bushes so high you can’t see anything. Overall, we felt like it was definitely worth our time and our money, Highly recommend.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Thank you for the fantastic review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the Golden Ticket LA Shared 3 Hour Tour and were able to see so many of LA’s iconic spots in such a short time. Mario will be thrilled to hear that his energy and knowledge made your experience even more memorable. While celebrity homes can be tricky to see due to gates and landscaping, the tour is packed with highlights like the Hollywood Sign, Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive, and other famous LA landmarks. We’re so glad you felt the tour was worth your time and money, and we truly appreciate the recommendation!

New Years Eve tour

Liz_C, Jan 2026
Jose our driver and tour guide was really knowledgeable about everything LA. Cheerful, helpful drove us to the closet point for The Hollywood sign for photos, also Beverley Hill sign and overview of Universal. Weather was rainy but we were in an enclosed private bus seating only 9/10 we were so happy when other buses were open. We had bottles of water and a rest room stop. One of the group had children and a sweet baby, Jose was very caring. We learned many things about LA we didn’t know and would give Jose and the tour a five star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Many thanks Jose and don’t forget to tip!! From the UK
