Nice Overview of Key LA Sights

5.00Great introduction to major sights in the LA area. As Locals, we had seen some of these attractions before but (1) not all of them and (2) not without doing our own driving (which is hazardous in LA!). Jeanette was a knowledgeable and enthusiastic Tour Guide, and her ability to cut through LA traffic was impressive! We could have used more time at certain stops, but when you're trying to do that much in one day in LA, the timing has to be what it was.

5.00This tour was the perfect way to experience LA when you have a limited amount of time. The tour guide was very knowledgeable, personable and funny. We enjoyed his trivia and superb music choices during the drive. The guide was also excellent at giving additional suggestions for activities and places to visit if we get a chance to return to the city.
