5.00On the 29th of March I did the Hollywood Sign Hike to the front and back. Jon was my tour guide. He was leading and it was me and 9 others. Jon was a spectacular tour guide. 10 out of 10 for sure. He was a cool and fun person to be around. He gave us plenty of knowledge plus at times there was good general chit chat. He was very pleasant in all aspects. Thank you Jon for being an awesome tour guide and thank you to Bikes And Hikes LA for having this tour run. Thank you again. Much appreciated.
A rare experience

5.00Like 2 hikes in one! A rare, mist-shrouded morning that entirely obscured the Hollywood sign burned off halfway through the hike, bringing forth the infamous white letters like a cosmic, cinematic reveal! And our fabulous guide Chris was there to narrate the whole thing! The only thing better than romping around the icon of the hills was...waiting for it! Thanks to Chris for creating a memorable walk, and being so affable and accommodating. He knows and conveys the history of the area well, which also heightened the experience. Highly recommend!

4.00Our first time here and this was a very easy walk to see the Hollywood sign! Sarah, our guide, was very kind, knowledgeable and outgoing. She takes very good pictures for you as well. I thought we were going to be hiking more closer to it. More like behind the sign as well because that’s what it said on the description when I booked it. I’m not mad about it, was just hoping to get a little closer than we did.
