Incredible scenery, great stories, fun hike - Mark was an incredibly fun and knowledgeable guide. He told us great stories about the history of the park and its various quirks and unknown facts. We had a great time chatting with him and he helped us capture some great photos by pointing out the most scenic points and taking photos of us with the touch of a professional photographer. Mark recommended coming back in Spring and doing another tour or just hiking up ourselves to see the park in full bloom. It's something we're already starting to plan out.

Great tour - I struggled on the way up but am so glad I kept going. Our guide, Michael, was very patient and had plenty of cold water on hand for us. He told us a bunch of interesting stories about Griffith Park, Observatory and the Hollywood sign. He also gave us a bunch of good recommendations for several places in and around Hollywood. Would highly recommend this tour.
