This was a great tour! Dan was our tour guide and was super fun and knowledgeable. We got to see:…read moreDesilu and Paramount Studios, The Hollywood sign up close, Lucille Ball's home, Marilyn Monroe's place with Joe Dimaggio, Blue Jay way and celebrity homes (LeoDicaprio, Keanu Reeves, Rihanna and George Harrison) Pros: 1. Private Tour 2. Free water and some chips/snacks 3. The best way to sight see in the hills and go to places we would never usually go on our own. Our tour-guide was very skilled in driving up in the hills. 4. Nice comfortable SUV/Car Cons: 1. Half of the time is spent driving from one place to the next, so keep that in mind because you are paying for this at an hourly rate. You can talk to your tour guide while driving and learn more about the city which is nice, but keep in mind that you will only be able to see a few things because LA traffic is a bummer. 2. The price is a little steep for what the tour offers. I think for that price, it should include a pickup and drop off in the LA area. We paid $537 ( $179 per hour) + $30 tip for three hours for three people. I personally feel the price should be more like $400 for 3 hours and then we would have been able to add a bigger tip. Thank you Glitterati for a fun experience!

Colin was our guide and it could not have been a better experience! He was insightful,…read moreknowledgeable, and related to both my wife and I, and our teenagers. For example, when he mentioned Classic Hollywood stars like Jimmy Stewart Lucille Ball, Bob Hope, and Clark Gable, my wife and I were impressed while our teenage kids were saying "Who are they?" He then related to them various current YouTubers and pop culture stars where the kids were impressed while my wife and I said, "who are they?" Better take the tour quick because Colin is an aspiring actor and (we think!!) any day now he will be swooped up to a multi-picture deal, or the latest hot television show from Netflix or Hulu. A+

I was very very happy with my decision to spend the afternoon with Surf City Tours seeing the sites…read morein LA. I took the Hollywood tour (they also have a Malibu tour which I will be going on next time ). The bus was pretty full and everyone quickly wound up becoming friendly. Even though we all came separately, it was a really cool group vibe thanks mostly to the guide who did a great job of making everyone feel comfortable and excited. So as the tour starts, I'm there trying to take pics and videos and post them to my IG story. The first thing I noticed was that there was so much stuff that we got to see right off the bat, we were seeing so many cool landmarks and celebrity homes that I couldn't keep up on IG . Generally, that was one of the best most pleasant surprises was the sheer quantity of cool things we got to see - it blew my expectations out of the water. LA is such a cool city, but being from San Diego we definitely take it for granted and just think about the traffic and how it takes forever to drive there But this tour reminded me about how there is no other city in the world like LA - I mean its mf HOLLYWOOD! Around every corner is a location from a movie, or a celebrity's home, or a landmark where something happened that is part of our pop culture history. The other thing that exceed my expectations was the fact that no only was I seeing cool shit but the driver knew so much about the city and its history. I was learning stuff I never knew about this place and never would have learned if I didn't take the tour. I came away afterwards with a new appreciation for LA and all that it has meant for everyone who has ever watched a movie. For the logistics - its a long tour - ours was about 5 hours so be prepared to spend the whole day. They stop for lunch at a farmers market where people have seen celebrities shopping, etc. They also stop downtown by the walk of fame, so you will get chances to get out and stretch your legs and grab something to eat or a beer. Also, the bus is open air so you don't have to worry about being stuck inside all day long. When I went it was a little cold out but they had blankets in the van for everyone who needed a little extra warmth. Trust me you will see everything that you would expect and more - even the Hollywood sign. It's the perfect activity for maybe your last full day in town when you don't want to think or plan your day - you just show up and get on the bus It would also prob be good for the day after you plan on going out the night before - easy day for a hangover You also don't have to stay in LA proper - you can stay in Santa Monica by the beach and completely avoid having to drive in all that traffic that everyone talks about. If you're from San Diego like me - I would totally recommend Surf City for an easy weekend trip with your significant other. It's super easy to drive into Santa Monica and you will feel more at home out by the beach like I did You get a hotel, some dinner reservations, one day to explore Santa Monica/go to the beach, and one day to let someone else do the driving and see some really cool stuff that you wouldn't be able to see anywhere else. They will even pick up and drop off at your hotel. Also, I'm pretty sure all the other tour companies pick up and drop off from downtown LA which is obvi a pain in the ass to get to and back from. I'm telling you - Valentines Day, anniversary, etc. It's perfect and you'll def score some points. Next time I go up that way I'm going to check out the Malibu tour which is shorter - I'll be sure to post about that one too.

Took the 5.5 hour tour and was disappointed…read more Spent way too much time on celebrity house tours which was uninteresting and not disclosed. Our tour guide only spoke about himself and did not once introduce himself or engage with most of the group. He made racist comments towards a group of Chinese passengers who had a slight language barrier and left the vehicle for a different tour company. We were told we'd have 15 minutes to view the Hollywood sign which I had waited years to do, from a number of angles however we had three minutes and it was an obstructed view over a mile away that was impossible to show up in pictures. We were supposed to have an hour in Hollywood Blvd but he told us to arrive back at 5.15 instead of 5.30 and this gave us only 30 minutes as we were late. We then decided the trip was not worth the suggested $20 tip PER PERSON in a group and we did not return to the truck.

I can't even imagine what it's like for the tourists! We typically avoid Hollywood Boulevard because it seems like every spot is a tourist trap and, I can't lie, it would mistake this experience for one. But the staff members were so friendly and full of great energy. Plus. SHOUTOUT TO SALIM. Homeboy elevated the experience by miles!!! Bumped the music and hyped up the birthday boy. Took his time at the Hollywood sign to make sure we got memorable photos instead of rushing us back. And he showed us homes of celebrities we would never have noticed before even though we live in Hollywood! He also made sure we enjoyed the power of the car, but safely on the roads and highways. If you decide to go with this service (and you should! It's a great gift idea!) ASK FOR SALIM!

Amanda tailored the tour for the 4 tween teens in our party.

She is very personable and relatable to the girls. We loved her. We traveled in an airconditioned mini van (temps were in 100's that day).

Then coming home to no fault of the bus driver, the lady in charge of the park n ride made us wait an hour after the handicapped ramp broke and we couldn't load a wheelchair. Many people got off and ordered an Uber. The lot and the Hollywood Bowl was empty.. like a desert, all quiet and here is us waiting and waiting until midnight until she was given the go to let our bus drive off. Three stars not for the actual service but for this particular ride coming home. It was frustrating for us to all have to wait when the bus was broken.. and the nice lady in the wheelchair had to wait outside for whatever alternative was coming her way.
