Los Angeles 3 hrs 3 stop
N5289DAjeannem, October 2026
This was an excellent tour. Right to the Hollywood sign, through all the important neighborhoods. All the way down Mulholland Drive. The guide pointed out a variety of celebrity homes. The views were great. Pretty stops. Small group, so you don't feel crowded or rushed.
Response from the operator · FRONT D Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re delighted you enjoyed the Hollywood Sign, iconic neighborhoods, Mulholland Drive, celebrity homes, and beautiful views. We’re glad our small-group format made the experience comfortable and relaxed, with plenty of time to enjoy the stops. Thank you for choosing Golden Ticket LA!

Thee greatest
Korbin_M, October 2026
I wasn’t sure while booking if this was the right tour since I’ve never booked in California. Also it was partially because of the transportation used which I later understood that it was needed to get close to the Hollywood sign. Tour guide was top notch. Smart, funny, entertaining. If you’re thinking about it, DO IT!!! Hands down one of the best tours I’ve ever been on.. Beverly Hills picture was awesome. Right amount of stops and everything..
Response from the operator · FRONT D Thank you for such an amazing review! We’re thrilled you decided to join us and that the tour exceeded your expectations. We’re glad you enjoyed our guide’s knowledge, humor, the Beverly Hills photo opportunities, and the well-planned stops. Our vehicle helps us get closer to the Hollywood Sign for those memorable views! We truly appreciate your enthusiastic recommendation. Thank you for choosing Golden Ticket LA!

Car Sick
Catherine_C, October 2026
Be sure you understand that this is not an open bus tour and the roads are windy. If you are someone that gets car sick, they do not accommodate seating you at the front. They said they disclosed this along with the risk to get car sick, which I didn’t see anywhere, when I purchased ticket online. Customer service was terrible and a comment was made that this happens often to others, so I figured I would share our experience. $150 we had to forfeit- they didn’t care at all. Just show up to Hollywood and you can find the same tour for $25, that’s an open bus.

Flying visit to LA
Dominic_L, October 2026
Mario was an excellent tour guide, he gave us detailed knowledge about all the places we visited and always had a good story to tell about them.
Our highlight was getting so close to the Hollywood sign and learning all about its history!
We would recommend this trip to anyone who is short on time in LA as we were only there for 24 hrs and really feel we managed to capture all the highlights. Extra Bonus is the office is located on the walk of fame!
Response from the operator · FRONT D Thank you for such a fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that Mario made your tour so enjoyable with his detailed knowledge and great stories. Getting up close to the Hollywood Sign and learning about its history is always a highlight, and we’re delighted you enjoyed it too!
We’re especially glad the tour helped you make the most of your short 24-hour visit to Los Angeles and experience so many highlights in one trip. And yes, being right on the Walk of Fame makes it even more convenient to start your Hollywood adventure!
Thank you for choosing VIP Hollywood Tours!
