Our tour guide is so nice and funny. The whole trip was full of enjoyment. She tells about the history of the Hollywood sign and the famous celebrity who is surrounded. The story of Madonna’s house and so much more. 我很喜欢 and I’m posting my experience on Chinese social media 小红书。

Enjoyable trek to the Hollywood Sign

Raghavan_A, Mar 2026
Wanted to see the iconic Hollywood sign closely with my wife. The trek was short and the guide was both informative as well as funny

Great Memorable Experience with Interesting History/Stories

Sandy_S, Mar 2026
The company allowed us to change times to earlier in the morning when it was cooler, since there were openings. It was a very unseasonably hot day, so this was really appreciated! In addition, Andy (our guide) had water and little fans to help out with the heat. He also checked on us if we lagged behind, gave us a heads up about things we might wonder about (like going through personal property being OK). Great exercise and views. Thanks so much!

Awesome experience

The hike was really just a fairly easy walk, so don’t be put off! This is a fantastic experience!

This was 👌, something I would recommend and would do again, our tour guide Matt was excellent well informed and took his time to explain the history of Hollywood. Sadly we forgot to give him his tip. He deserved.

Michael Spellman is great

Charity_Z, Dec 2025
Michael Spellman Is a great guide. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the area, had a great personality, and made the hike a lot of fun. He was great at stopping and taking pictures of our family throughout the hike.

It’s free, don’t waste ur money, it’s a scam

Ebony_S, Dec 2025
The hike is literally free, we got scammed. No one showed up. Waited and waited. The trial takes u onto the road and then back so we were a bit confused.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

While we welcome constructive feedback, we’d like to provide some additional context for people reading this review. This booking was for a guided experience with a ticketed start time, regardless of the trail being located within a free public park. On the day of the ticketed time, the guide was at the meeting point approximately 30 minutes before the 2:45 PM start and waited until 2:53 PM before departing. Our records show no calls or messages indicating difficulty locating the guide or a late arrival, and five other guests booked for the same ticketed time. For future guests, we encourage arriving a few minutes early and contacting us immediately by phone or message if there is any difficulty locating the guide so we can assist in real time.

Noelle rocks!

Kim_P, Dec 2025
It was fun and our guide told amazing stories. Worth more than. $20 a person! She also takes beautiful photos of your family.

Chris Rocks (get it?)!

Joseph_M, Nov 2025
Chris was a fantastic guide. Really enjoyed our time with him. Knowledgeable, fun and friendly. Highly recommended!

Great tour to see, get close, and learn all about the Hollywood sign

Raymond_H, Oct 2025
I live in Southern California and have seen the Hollywood sign from afar often, but I have never been this close. The 90-minute walk was very easy. We had about 15 people in our tour. Our guide made it fun and the extra detail and background on the Hollywood sign is what made this tour extra special. I now know more about the Hollywood sign than I ever would have otherwise. It was fun to see it from different spots along the hike, and to learn the history. Very enjoyable. There were others in our tour that were from different countries, and from different states. Everybody loves Hollywood, and the sign is a very visible icon!

The Closest We've Ever Been to the Hollywood Sign EVER

Kevin_G, Jun 2025
Katie was fantastic. We have lived in LA since 1999 and Katie taught us so much that we didn't already know! Also, we'd never been THIS close to the Hollywood Sign before.
