Did not practice social distancing or enforce face mask coverings. The bus was full and the people sitting behind us did not wear face masks the entire time. Aside from violating our health condition, the tour was ok. The tour guide was very rehearsed and went too fast for us to get any good pictures. read more

My boyfriend was visiting from out of town and we're big fans of touristy things. We walked down Sunset Blvd. to see what our options were for pricing on the tours. We decided to go with this one and we're pleasantly surprised. I loved every moment. Our driver, Tommy, was exceptional. He was VERY informative and had such great energy. I'm TERRIFIED of heights and as high as we were in the hills.. I felt safe with his driving. It was great to hear his recommendations for food as well. We tried one place and it was as great as he said it would be! Thanks Tommy! read more

My bus ride for my time I specified was not there because he was sick. I understand, stuff like that happens; however, the tour was supposed to be top down hence the name "open bus" tours and was not what it says it was. It was a covered van which made it very hard to see a lot of the houses. When you are requested to sit on the right side when the majority of the houses and sights are on the left, you don't really get to see much of it without climbing over people which is very rude. Nevertheless, it was a decent tour, but it was not what I signed up for and know next time where I need to spend my money on when I bring friends and family to get a tour of Hollywood. read more

Ryan, our tour guide was great! Good sense of humor and told us fun little facts. Totally worth the money!!

My husband and I took a Hollywood tour with openbustour.com today. Our driver was fantastic! He drove us into Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive and Hollywood Blvd. He stopped us at overlooks and places around the area so we could take pictures and spot celebrities. We saw Samuel L Jackson on our trip and a boxer named Duerte. He told fantastic stories about celebrities in the area and landmarks. We rode in a covered Mercedes Sprinter. The windows were removed for easier viewing and better pictures. It was very comfortable and worked well for my husband who is 6'3. Sit on the left side of the bus. It's easier to spot celebrities that way :-) We had debated whether or not to do the tour. We are so glad that we did! It was worth both the money and time!! read more

I cant give a review because I do not know what tour this was I took several. If it is for the big red Bus. Went to 4 different pick up spots waited a hour even went to Santa Monica finally gave up wasted 4 hrs of my day for nothing. I want my money back. Now if this is for the Hollywood tour where you were to see the celebrities houses. I never seen a house. Just the tip or side of a house never seen a whole house. Was shown a house that you could actually see. Looked at her house on my phone that house was a joke. Not worrying too much about it the tour was only 35.00 and I did get to see somethings. Plus the driver drove too fast so you really could not take good pictures and he was childish read more

Tour was great! Really enjoyed the guide's insight into local sights and celebrity homes. Took the family including my older parents. The ride was comfortable, and just the right length. read more

it was alright, Ryan was great and funny!! the guy we checked in with, before getting on the tour bus was rude. I didn't have the tickets pulled up immediately when he came over to me and he caught an attitude. I didn't get his name (no name tag) but he had one of the Trip Advisor black shirts on. Other than that, Ryan was great! he gave us a lot of information, showed us some celebrity homes. I do wish we could of seen more celebrity homes than what we did though! read more

Owner always gives us a great deal when we are in town with the family, I keep taking the same tour because my family is big and it's all over U.S. so there is always someone new coming to Hollywood and I send them to this place, take the tour you won't be disappointed read more

Driver was entertaining. Saw Bert Ward( Robin in Batman TV series) get a star. The tour is a fast overview of Mullholand Drive and Beverly Hills. Driver pointed out 5 celebrity homes. It is a great way to see a lot in a short period of time for a little bit of money. If you are looking for facts and history of this area this tour may not be ideal for you. We had a great time and recommended it to everyone that we told we went. Bus is clean and people are friendly ! read more

Nick was a great guide and made the tour fun & interactive by telling us to Google certain facts about the celebrity homes or open Insta to take a photo op. The beginning of the tour was a little disorganized as we all stood on a corner of Hollywood Blvd. Nick made recommendations on where to eat, not just the well known spots. It would be nice to add a hop off spot near a shop to get water & bathroom stop. Overall a good time! read more

Ryan, our tour guide, was absolutely amazing and gave an incredible tour of Hollywood hills. Absolutely breathtaking views, even if you don't care about celebrity homes this tour is exceptional! read more

Open Bus Tours was a great way to get to see a lot of Hollywood and Beverly Hills and gave us an idea of what to do with the rest of our week in LA. Our tour guide Shay was super funny and let us know about so much cools stuff. I would definitely recommend this taking a tour with him. read more

It was a little weird in the beginning as you don't really know where to go and who's with your tour or who your tour guide is. However, after the beginning, it was a great time. We got as close as we could to celebrity homes and while we did not run into any celebrities it was still a great sight and a great time. read more

After we booked out a whole bus, they refused to honor their word of giving our group a discount on tickets to the wax museum. On top of that, the asshole yelled at us, and when I asked him for his name, he was a total dick about it. read more

Good tour of LA and the driver was entertaining and very knowledgeable. Very interesting to see homes of famous people and get an inside scoop of the area. read more

We live in LA County and our out of town visitors wanted to take a Bus Tour. It was a fun and interesting ride. BZ is friendly and knows a lot about Hollywood and Beverly Hills; their history and what is happening currently. He is a good driver and allowed us time to take a lot of pictures. He pointed out good restaurants and gave us other tips. I took a similar tour last year (with other friends) and this one was much better. We got a discounted rate by buying our tickets at their booth on Hollywood Blvd. If you want to do the tourist thing next time you're in Hollywood, I highly recommend Open Bus Tours. They are reasonably priced and do a great tour. read more

These guys did a great job. My girlfriend and I went on the celebrity tour. The driver was pretty funny and the bus was a convertible. I noticed the tickets were priced a bit less then the other companies around the strip too. They have a ticket booth on Highland across from Hollywood High School. read more

Tommy knows how to bring thrill and adventure to the vast expanse of Hollywood stardom. From the emblems on the sidewalk of Sunset Boulevard to winding past mountaintop estates, you get to share the joy of witnessing amazing views while hearing bits of history, gossip, and impromptu reactions to surprises along the way. The jalopy of a van becomes a thrill seeking story ride, more Mrs. Frizzle than city bus. Its a gentle way to see the height of LA's wealthy entertaining class, further realize the huge economic disparity in the United States, but zip past the shock factor which lags behind to softly hit in post-tour reflection. Don't miss out, and give Tommy my best. read more

It was a nice time killer, full of fun celebrity and Hollywood facts. We seen a celebrity that my teenage girls recognized eating lunch on the patio of one of the ritzy restaurants. He waved at us. Our guide was so knowledgeable about every building, home, designer, and even luxury cars. Pointing them out as we passed them. read more

We had a great tour today with BZ. He is a native and had great stories and was able to get us around a major traffic snafu. BZ was very entertaining and the entire family had an awesome time. read more

I had the most wonderful time on this tour. we got to see Justin Biebers house on his birthday!! although I almost got the cops called on me because I tried to jump his gate. BZ was the best tour guide in the nation!! He told us where I could get wasted and places to drunk eat! WOOOOO overall 10/10 experience read more

Von was sooooo wonderful! The bus was comfortable and a relaxing setting. We got to see all the cool stuff in Hollywood and Beverly Hills. I would highly suggest them !!! Ask for VON! Best driver. I saw some of the others they were not nearly as fun read more

I took the bus tour with Lawrence at the Hollywood location. He was funnier than heck, knew his stuff and I really enjoyed the tour overall. I live in Hollywood but come from Downunder and was very impressed with how knowledgeable Lawrence was about real facts. I'm going to recommend this tour to my visiting family and friends for sure. Lawrence is the man and a cool guy!! read more

The worst! Please don't waste your money They try to charge u 30$ per person instead of the 50$ but we got the guy down to 15$ per person All the way down from 50$ And the driver put in danger by violating a closed street where heavy metal pieces were being lifted from the roof of the lifting right around the corner from pick up. Then first we got a 15 minute boring tour first then we went back to pick up to get more people so the tour took 3 hours Sooooo bad never again read more

I got to sit in front with the driver, his name was Louie funny guy he asked me how am i doing Co-pilot i said fine.Clean Bus got to see some parts of La i Havent seen before didnt see any movie stars its ok if i ever come back i wanna take this Tour agian.Sign Ak read more

We got on the tour in Hollywood and enjoyed it very much. The open bus gave us a great view of all the sights and the tour guide was really, really funny amd entertaining. read more

My brother and I can to visit LA. My brother was at a hair convention so I had 4 hours to myself. As I walked up I was approached by Leslie who told me all about the tour and was very helpful. I decided to take the tour and I am so glad that I did. I learned so much and got to see so many places that I wouldn't have on my trip. Connie was an amazing your guide with a great personality. She kept everyone engaged and so very informative. We even saw Mac Miller. Thank you all at Hollywood open bus tours! read more

This was fun! BZ has a nice voice so his narrating the tour was not grating or annoying like some tour guides. He is also very witty, and even when his jokes bomb, it was funny :) The only thing I would do next time was to purchase the tickets from the guys on the street (which I normally would never recommend as all the street venders along Hollywood Blvd have a very hustley vibe) verses purchasing tickets online. I think we paid a lot more reserving our time slot online than the deals their various tour workers were offering people walking along the street. I wish our driver, BZ, had a blog or something; he had some very interesting things to offer about the city! I would take this tour again. read more

My children and I parked at an unmarked open parking meter on the side of the OBT building location. When we finished the tour, the driver suggested everyone get out a few blocks away from the location. Long story short, I walked back to top-up the meter and my car was gone. OBT knew exactly where my car was - had the tow company information stored in his contacts. OBT will move NO Parking signs to accommodate their desire to park their busses next to their building. Additionally, the tour was a complete scam. Driver said he was the best tour guide out there and continued to request at least $10 pp as a tip. He went down streets he wasn't supposed to go down (load bearing) and even bragged about it. He had no care for the people who live in the area. DON'T waste your time and money... you'll end up having to get your car out of impound. I was not the only one this happened to w/in the same hour. read more

Do not go on this tour! We went on the ultimate tour, were promised to see Melrose, Bel Air & Greystone Mansion but these things were all left off! Were promised 2 pit stops & only had 1- 40 mins in Rodeo Drive whoop de do. The driver was amazing and funny but the whole thing is dodgy and not very well organised. When we finished we asked why we did not go to Bel Air or Melrose and showed the driver our brochure, he didn't even know those places were on there! Guy that sold us our tickets could not answer why we didn't go to all the places mentioned, he said "maybe the driver took an alternate route to avoid traffic" or "you should have told the driver to take you there" umm?! We're not mind readers, we thought we'd actually GO to the places ON the BROCHURE. When asked about Greystone the man said "we're not allowed to go there" WHY is it on the brochure then? No resolution with the company, as mentioned the driver was lovely and it was not his fault, just poor management. Do not use this tour. We waited 2 days as they were booked out but definitely use the Starline Hop on/Hop off instead. I am so disappointed and so are my family. read more
