Practical tips for planning your LA trip

You don't need to rent a car

A private driver takes you stop to stop — no worrying about parking, traffic, or gas.

How much time you'll need

A 6-hour tour covers the essentials (Hollywood, Griffith, the beach). Add Downtown with the 8-hour tour, or build your own up to 10 hours.

Small groups

Each tour fits up to 4 people in the same vehicle — great for families or groups of friends traveling together.

Book ahead

Weekends fill up first, especially the 8-hour tour. Request your quote a few days ahead.
