Can Anyone Recommend An Organised Tour of LA?
Hi,
I live in San Diego and my sister is visiting so we want to take her on a tour of Hollywood, walk of fame, Beverly Hills etc (something we haven't done either since we have been here). Can anyone recommend a good organised tour? I will be driving up to LA but thought it may be best to do a proper tour rather than drive aimlessly? What do you think? |

Park up in the Hollywood and Highland mall - with validation (get a drink or something there) it's about $2. Look at the Hollywood sign from the walkways. Go outside and you'll see the stars on the boulevard and handprints outside Mann's Chinese theatre. Lots of people try to sell star tours, but stars have houses which are inaccessible. So I agree with Rene, a drive around Beverly Hills will achieve the same.

Don't miss Griffith Observatory..great view of the the city, the Hollywoodland sign and on a good day. the ocean.
So to keep things simple. 1. Observatory 2. Hollywood Blvd 3. Drive around Beverly Hills...and, just remembered, end up at the Getty Museum which is free, book in advance, great place for a sightsee and drink at the end of the day. That would all use up @ 6 hours or so... |

You don't need to book the Getty museum now (only the one on PCH).

A British expat friend of mine is a travel writer in LA and has put together these guides. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_no...or+los+angeles

Really? You can just turn up? (Or am I thinking you needed to book the parking maybe?)

I've seen their vans out and about. I had just received the magazine of the LFHA and Starline advertise therein. |
