Loved it - Great Podcast, lots of history about downtown LA. If you love ghost stories this ones for you. Best part of the tour is that you get to do it at your own pace. I love group tours, but sometimes I want to check out the buildings and do some exploring on my own and that’s what you get with this one. You can pause and start up at anytime, and I love that. I was able to stop on the strip and have a slice of pizza and a drink then started back up again. This was a great way to get in a good chill walk and enjoy the scenery.

Hollywood, Historic & Fun! - Great experience! (There were a few internet tour-play glitches along the way). Overall, we had an amazing time learning so much about Hollywood and unknown historical events. Having grownup in Beverly Hills and privy to lots of history on Hollywood, we were very pleased. Thanks!

Average tour - Nice walk on Hollywood blvd, the little history they gave was more interesting than the ghost stories. I did not finish this tour

Ok tour - This was ok? It takes you down Hollywood Blvd and points put some of the buildings, but the ghost stories aren't that great. It's a lot of "oh, there might be something here" and not a lot of actual story telling. There also isn't a "walk until you get here " part of the tale, so you do have to toggle back and forth to the map Also, the description lists this as flat. It is EXCEPT the first stop. This is up a pretty steep hill, so if you have mobility issues, you might want to skip it (although there are bathrooms there....)
