Great tour, great tour guide - Great way to see quite a few iconic sights in one day! Bus was comfortable and our guide Raoul was knowledgeable, funny, and approachable (also accommodating: he had no problem dropping us off closer to Venice where we were staying after the tour).

Worth every penny - We have limited time in the city so we decided to bite bullet and buy this tour for our family. It was well worth it. We saw everything that will take us days and tons of headaches to see. Our kids really liked it (ages 12-17) so definitely great for all ages. Tour guy was super knowledgeable and made the car rides pretty entertaining. We paid a little extra for hotel pick up and that was also worth it. We never been in the city so it was good to just come our hotel and have pick up and dropp off. Definitely recommended

Awesome day trip from Vegas - Had an awesome time with the tour company. Raul was amazing and he was so helpful with everything he went ahead and gave us plenty of time at all the places and a great way to hit all the high lights on a day in LA. I recommend them if you are there for an extended period or short time.. Many tours to pick from you won’t be disappointed.

Great Tour! - For adults this is a very good tour. Our driver/guide Collin was very professional and knowledgeable when it came to the different sites that we saw during this tour. There was a lot to see and the stops were all well tomed. The one thibg that I will say is that if you are traveling with children then this may not be the tour for you. Although there were lot of sites there weren't too many for children with the exception of the Observatory which is near the end of the tour. Other than that this is a great tour.

Great way to see the city, but walk fast - Our guide was amazing, but there wasn't enough time to walk to the places listed before we were due back to the bus.

Good overall - Ok trip but not enough time at the observatory. Probably would not recommend this trip to others, each stop was too short to do anything but a small walk

Lackluster tour - Things that could have better are: More communication along the route to point out cool things versus telling us for a long period of time about one topic or where we are going. Also, the bus was so hot we had to catch an Uber back because it was making us uncomfortable and sick.

Average but not with the price - The drive up to the Griffith Observatory was really memorable and exciting . The views were great. The Santa Monica Pier is a tourist trap and frankly a dirty place. Not worth the time.

Title - Venice shouldn't be a stop - drive by would be enough. All others were acceptable. Too long of a day for me.
