How to Choose a Hollywood Tour

There’s nowhere else on Earth quite like Hollywood. Home to recognizable landmarks and even more recognizable movie stars, the larger-than-life neighborhood offers plenty to keep you entertained—from the Hollywood Sign and the Walk of Fame to celebrity mansions. Here’s how to choose a Hollywood tour that’s best suited to you.

For Time-Pressed Travelers

If you only have a short stay in LA, opt for a tour that’s tailored to a tight schedule. Book a hop-on hop-off bus tour to create an itinerary that features only the sights you wish to see or explore by bike for an up-close view of local landmarks. Small-group coach tours provide another way to tick off more Hollywood sights in less time.

For Celebrity Spotters

For some travelers, Hollywood’s biggest attraction is its movie-star residents. Get one step closer to the A-listers on a celebrity-themed tour. Head to the Hollywood Walk of Fame to pose near your favorite handprints; go on a history-themed tour to learn about Hollywood stars and secrets; or discover the neighborhood’s multi-million-dollar mansions on a tour that focuses on celebrity residences.

For Outdoor Adventurers

Hollywood isn’t just about star-spotting. The neighborhood, for all its glitz and glamor, is also a great destination for lovers of the outdoors. Head for the hills on a hiking tour of Griffith Park and the iconic Hollywood sign. Alternatively, explore the area on horseback.

For Food Lovers

Los Angeles is one of the world’s top culinary destinations, so you can expect to feast in Hollywood. Experience the diversity of Hollywood’s food scene on a tour that whisks you to Hollywood’s best eateries, which serve everything from Mexican bites to pizza and ice cream.
