This tour was recommended to us by the hotel we were staying at. The hotel clerk arranged it and everything, which was really nice. People had mentioned not to do a tour because they were cheesy, but I can recommend Amazing LA Tours. Their tour takes place on an air conditioned, covered bus with tinted windows. We passed other tour... More

Roberto was fun to talk to arranging the tour and the tour guide, Antonio was excellent. Even though he was Italian, he spoke excellent English and was very knowledgable. He was fun and entertaining and was able to pick us up and drop us off at our hotel, even though it wasn't a hotel on their normal pick up listing.... More

Me and the family took the long tour. We were told that the bus would come pick us up from our hotel between 8-8:15am and, damned if he wasn't there at 8:10! It was early but we figured by being back by 2:30, we would still have time to do something else as opposed to the afternoon tour. We were... More

Thank you for choosing us for your tour company while you were in LA! We believe that punctuality is definitely one of the most important qualities for a tour company to have, especially in the chaos of Los Angeles. Glad to hear we started of on the right foot.

Picked up at our hotel in a Mercedes van! That was a first. Took their Premier LA Tour (#2) and the 5 hours went too fast. Hit all the hot spots and were able to spend time on foot on Rodeo Drive and Hollywood Blvd. Big shoutout to our tour guide (Charlie) from Team Ohio. See you on TV soon,... More

Thank you for coming out and enjoying Los Angeles with us! It's amazing how fast five hours can whip by, especially when you're being regaled by a guy like Charlie. As a constant recipient of praise and adoration, we agree that with his charisma and talent, you'll definitely see him on TV soon. Until then, people can catch one of... More

We took the longer tour of L.A. / Hollywood with time at Rodeo drive, Hollywood and Mulholland Drive. The guides were very infomative - starting with our hotel pick-up we discovered that the drab bar behind the hotel used to be the hangout of the Beach Boys, and just down the road was Bicknell Hill - where skate-boarding was (re)...

Thanks for choosing us! Antonio does have quite the repository of LA knowledge and anecdotes. Always great to hear when someone comes away from a tour and not only had a good time, but learned a thing or two that sticks with them. It's hard not to get a bit jealous when it's a nice day and you see an... More
