3Hr Private 3HR Tour - Had a great tour with Mario today! There were 6 in our group, plenty of room in the van and well ventilated. Toured Hollywood sign area, Mulholland Drive, Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive and Hollywood Blvd. Continuous narration and stops along the way! Highly recommend this 1/2 day trip!

Great trip... but you have to speak English - We really enjoyed the visit. Thank you to the team at the office who was pleasant. The big plus for us were the pictures with the Hollywood sign and the panoramic views.

Great tour choice - Very intimate crowd size. Mario was excellent to work with!. He was courteous, offered great tidbits along the way. I liked the format instead of a big bus.

Ask for Cesar - Cesar was a great tour guide. Not only did he know a ton of very cool information he was our personal photographer. Tour was well worth the money and hit all the highlights. Hollywood sign is a must.

The perfect 3 hour tour!!! - We had a blast on our 3-hour private tour of LA! Our guide, Adam, was absolutely fantastic. With limited time in the city, we chose a private tour to maximize our experience, and it was the best decision. Adam was incredibly knowledgeable and great at tailoring his information to match our interests as we got to know each other during the tour. He also doubled as a great photographer, capturing wonderful shots of us in fun spots along the way. If you only have three hours to explore LA, this is definitely the best way to do it. Thanks for an awesome tour, Adam!

Ok, not great - The trip was OK. Your guide was great and knew his stuff, but overall we were bored. Seeing the back of a garage of a celebrity doesn’t count as seeing their home. Maybe we weren’t as impressed with LA?? Not sure but not a good use of our money. Once again, originally was knowledgeable about the area, we were just unimpressed!

No customization to the promised custom tour, Not worth booking the private tour - We picked this particular tour company and the private tour because of how much their website says you can customize a private tour and see hidden gems. I booked the tour a few months in advance and spoke to them at length about what I was looking for - namely, I wanted part of what is included in their Hollywood tours and then I wanted to see some of the LA street art I've seen other tours offer. I even asked if we needed more time to incorporate the street art. I told them we didn't need to see Beverly Hills as we'd already gone and that we didn't really have an interest in celebrity homes. They assured me everything was in order and it would not be a problem at all.
When we checked in, they ushered us off to a driver who while nice, knew nothing about the customizations I asked for in advance. He didn't even know we were a private tour.
First, the tour advertises taking you to the Walk of Fame and to see some historic theater near there. This isn't exactly true as their office is located on the Walk of Fame. So yes, you see the stars walking to their office, and the driver told us some history, but there's no tour of it and they couldn't tell us where specific stars were located or take us to specific stars. There was no picture taking at the stars. I'm also not sure what theater we were supposed to see as that wasn't included.
Next, the driver knew nothing about our request to see street art. To his credit, he tried googling some stuff and it's not as if he knew in advance to prepare. He drove us to downtown LA to show us a graffiti tower which while interesting was not something we could get out and look at. He also drove us by the statues of where the Lakers play which was great as we are basketball fans. However, he didn't really know where any of the art murals we could take pictures with were located. This was disappointing as during booking I'd stressed how much we wanted this part of the tour. He also didn't really know any local hidden gems to show us.
After that, we returned to the usually scheduled tour which was okay but included a lot of driving through celebrity areas to show us where certain stars used to live or where certain move scenes were filmed. Most the stars and movies were older though so my teens were thoroughly bored. The Hollywood sign stop was nice as he seemed to take us to a more hidden spot for good pictures.
Overall it was a very generic tour and something I could have booked anywhere. My young adult kids said they did not really enjoy it. There was definitely no benefit to booking a private supposedly customized tour.
