Additional Information

Begin your adventure at the Authentic Farmers Market and enjoy a quick bite before we take you on a travel experience highlighting two of LA’s premier points of interest! The Getty boasts paintings pre-dating the 20th century, ornamental artistry and a meticulously maintained garden. It also has breathtaking city and coast views. Griffith Observatory, a big name in the LA cinema scene, houses 3 levels of displays, a planetarium, and commanding views of the Hollywood Sign! With the gap between these landmarks, the city’s traffic and the parking hassle, is it even plausible to enjoy both in a day? Luckily, we have professionals to manage!

We promise to enrich your journey as we guide you through the worlds of art and space, film facts, history and beyond.

Funny and informative - We really enjoyed our day with Matt. Despite the traffic challenges, Matt made us forget we were sat in traffic with his funny and informative commentary. He had an anecdote for every intersection. We would have preferred to have spent longer at the Getty Center and the Griffith Observatory, but this was likely impacted due to the traffic. Out of Matt's and our drivers hands. Despite this, still a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ tour
