        The best of Hollywood
        Today we were collected by a very knowledgeable tour guide, Ben, an actor who was passionate about Hollywood and all it has to offer. We spent 3.5 hours while he took us to so many interesting places including The Hollywood Forever Funeral Home, the walk of fame and the stunning areas where the famous stars rest their heads. It was an unforgettable morning. Thank you Ben.

        LA Confidential
        Ben is an excellent private tour guide. His knowledge of Hollywood stars and the industry itself is quite extensive! We covered a lot of ground in 2.5 hours! In fact, we went beyond the designated time because he wanted to show me so much because he knew that I was greatly interested in movie history! Great experience!

        Interesting and fascinating tour around Hollywood and Beverly Hills
        David was really engaging and very funny, with loads of interesting stories. We fitted so much into the 2.5 hours. David asked us what we wanted to see and was happy to go out of his way to fit in things we wanted to see, rather than a fixed tour.

        Fantastic Tour for Families — Highly Recommend!!
        We were so impressed by our tour today! Our guide was so knowledgeable, funny and thoughtful. I was traveling with my teenage son and our guide made a special effort in tailoring our experience for both of us. He really added to our vacation experience!

        Beyond Expectations
        I have been to LA at least 20 times but never as tourist. So this time, I decided to take the time to learn about LA and I have now a far greater understanding of the city (at a very high level) courtesy of this tour. Our guide David was very professional and very knowledgeable but far more impressively, David was able to engage in other conversations that were very much off-script! Highly recommended and I would also suggest that people should ask questions that are not always related to the stars and the silly wealth of LA to get the most out of the tour.

        Top Rate Tour Experience
        We had a great time, our Tour Guide David was knowledgeable, fun, friendly, top rate bad jokes. He is so knowledgeable about this city and everyone in it. REQUEST DAVID! We saw so many must see places and a few I didn’t even know existed! We had a great opportunity to take some pictures up at the Hollywood sign and those turned out great! One nice thing was that they recommended an amazing drop off and pick up place called The Original Farmers Market, which was awesome! We arrived there a few hours early and had many delicious snacks and drinks. As we’re not from around here it was nice to have some extra recommendations. Highly recommend this guide! We’ll use them when we come back next time for sure!

        Great experience: LA Short Story tout with Ben!
        We booked the LA Short story tour and Ben was our guide. We had a great afternoon touring around Beverly Hills, Rodeo drive, the hall of fame, etc... Ben completely customized the celebrity houses tour according to our teens favorite celebrities. He gave us many interesting information and insights. The whole family had a great time!

        Nice visit but the tour does become monotonous.
        We went for this tour yesterday as most visitors to Los Angeles are encouraged to view the expensive homes of celebrities. We enjoyed the tour but found the commentary monotonous as the guide explained which celebrity owned what house and in some cases, announced the ridiculous prices of the homes they lived in. In most cases one only gets a faint indication of what the houses really look like because the homes are often hidden behind trees or shrubs. The experience of getting to know the location where the celebrities live was fine. It is ironic but one can find comparative homes on the beach ( in Africa) for probably a couple of million dollars while the homes in Beverley Hills are in some cases, worth plus $200 million.

        Great trip!
        This was a fantastic experience! Mark showed us around and wowed us with his knowledge of pretty much everything. Our kids are early teens/tweens and painfully shy but Mark really engaged with them and found things that they would like. We got some awesome pictures and covered a lot of ground in 3.5 hours. A great way to see a lot of LA in a short amount of time. Thanks Mark!

        We took a private tour and viewed celebrity homes.
        Our tour guide David was awesome, did a fantastic job. We have done other celebrity tours in the past and this one was by far the best

We could not have had a better layover day in LA thanks to Mark and his tour !! (In addition , Tour du Jour is a great company !!

        Next Level Tour. Private. Pricey. Priceless!
        Tour du Jour is not for everyone. It’s pricey at $175/hour. But it’s also private. You get to go where you want to go and stay as long as you desire. If you have limited time in LA and want to see specific things, that’s priceless! Our guide, David, met us in the lobby of our hotel and led us to his luxury SUV. Then he asked us what specific things we wanted to see. We told him, he offered a few suggestions and off we went on a 2 1/2 hour tour. We wanted to skip the Hollywood Sign, Stars on the sidewalk and many of the other standards, as we visited those on previous trips. David took us off the beaten path, showing us places not usually covered on standard tours. The La Brea Tar Pits, Nakatomi Plaza from the Die Hard movie, the cemetery of the stars. At each location he offered fascinating stories and often times digital photos to enhance our experience. We learned a lot about the history of LA and trivia about many of our favorite stars. Tour du Jour may sound expensive, but I found it a great value for our family.

        Perfect Luxury LA Tour
        Mark Heinrichs, is a wonderful and knowledgeable tour guide. He arrived on time and his car was immaculate. In 4 hours he was able to show me all the hotspots in Beverly Hills and Hollywood. He is extremely well-versed with LA and comes always prepared. I liked his friendly and intellectual demeanour. He went above and beyond my expectations.
