Shared 8-Hour Los Angeles City Sightseeing Tour from Long Beach

Geat LA adventure

8hrs is a long day but was worth it. A few different stops to get out and walk for 20 mjn at a time Our history (John) was great and had lots of historical knowledge and kept us well informed. Gratvtime seeing things we would not have seen nour own in 1 day.

had a great time

we had a great time. A great guide and driver. saw some really great sites, a had a very humorous trip. Alberto was very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of very good information.

Fantastic.

We were picked up at our hotel, and then driven through and around the city while our driver, Alberto, told funny facts and cracked little jokes here and there. The ride was comfortable, and we saw just about anything I could think of wanting to see.

Trip great, guide awful

The overall trip was exactly right for a tour of LA, but Gabriel was awful. He started the day telling us how cheap it was to live in CA, how everyone makes more than $100/hour, kids all buy real estate and are in the stock market. Then we talked about the mafia. If he thought to talk about celebrities, he mostly talked about how we lost [name] due to drugs, and we saved RDJ by putting him in jail, where he met the mafia, then won an Oscar. He repeated these things many timea. At one point he stopped in the middle of the block so we could all look at a homeless person. He talked incessantly about financial companies and how they hire high school dropouts. A few hours into the tour he asked the van if we wanted to talk about taxes. In unison, we said no, he did anyway. Driving though Beverly Hills he said outsiders want to talk about celebrities but my dad said the real Beverly Hills is corporations, and so he talked about that even though we were clearly the "outsiders" his dad talked about.. When people asked for clarification of something said, he was snide and ridiculed them. When someone asked where we were (neighborhood), he said we're in LA. He told someone else to Goggle whatever their question was. I know LA is rich in history and mystique, but we didn't get a sense of any of that from Gabriel. We had an Uber driver the day before who told us more interesting and relevant information than Gabriel could muster. We were glad to take the trip and see what we saw, but if he pulled up to take any of us anywhere again, we'd all turn around and leave.

La La Land

Fabulous tour as everything promised was 100% delivered. As a bonus we were the beneficiary of a personable, courteous, energetic, entertaining and knowledgeable tour guide whose name was Alberto. (He would be fun for a trip to the local grocery store). This was a our first trip to the LA area.

Excellent tour

Our tour guide was Alberto and he was excellent. We would recommend this tour to anyone. We were able to see so much of California- favorite was Venice Beach

Great experience.

Great day! We only had one day on LA so we thought this tour gave us a great overview of all the things we wanted to see. Our driver was knowledgeable and had great stories of his experiences.

Above and Beyond

Gabriel went above and beyond…ended up having a private tour as we were the only ones signed up! Saw the best of LA, had time to walk around and Gabriel was so knowledgeable! He made it a great day!

Best experience ever

Great experience the tour operator was very nice and kind. He gives us all the details and information we need to know about the tour. From our starting point till the end of the tour he explained and give details in every area we passed through. He has a full of details about the city and places.he checked on us during the lunch time and make sure we’re fine and have a good choice of food. He is the best

Outstanding Tour - Worth Every Penny!

Absolutely amazing tour! Very knowledgeable. Everything I was hoping for. Totally worth it! Wasn't overbooked. I felt if I had a question, he had a great answer. It was fun and friendly. I definitely recommend.

Our experience was great!...

Our experience was great! Our tour guide was very informative not to mention from witty and fun! He was extremely patient which our made our trip even more easy going.

Exceptional informative and well worth it

Tour was exceptional 👌 we were treated to loads of information about the stars, film locations and interesting facts on locations, this guy knew his stuff 👌 I would totally recommend

Alberto was excellent

Alberto was pumped up and overflowing with knowledge. We had so much fun exploring LA ... the day zoomed by!!!

The Glam of Old Hollywood

Alberto was BRILLIANT! Entertaining and informative! The tour van was comfortable and an easy ride (if a bit noisy in the undercarriage at times 😜).

10/10 Safe Informative and Organized

Each stop was the perfect amount of time and I loved that I could wander off on my own to see sights that weren’t on the tour during those times! Our tour guide was kind and up for the adventure bit his information was geared toward the older generation which was perfect for me however the younger people in our group would have probably loved to hear more about today’s celebrities.

LA Party of 9

This was a great tour! My group of 9, with different ages from 21-53, enjoyed all of it. John made the tour with his information about the city and his humor. If I am ever in LA again, I would most definitely add this to my list again. It’s the most reasonable way to see all of LA in one day. I highly recommend!

First class

We had a great day , our guide was great . Very friendly and very knowledgeable would highly recommend.

Excellent Sampler of LA

The tour was excellent. We covered all the iconic spots of LA and our driver was so knowledgeable and engaging. We highly recommend it!

Bad Pickup Location

Tour itself was good, not sure the driver followed the company script. Viator told me Tour operator could not pick wife and I up at Doubletree, San Pedro, where we were staying. Told during phone call to challenge pickup location, we had to get picked up at Anchor Pointe Inn. $23 by Uber. Original pickup time was 0830; picked up at Anchor Pointe Inn at 0915. Four people already on shuttle said they were picked up at Doubletree. WTF! Requested partial refund, pending.

One of the best tours I have ever experienced!

By far, one of the very best tours I have ever been on!! We saw it all! Gabriel was a great tour guide and added a lot of local flavor. We were unhurried and that gave us time to really experience areas of LA and the beaches that were quite extraordinary. I would absolutely book this same tour again on another trip to LA and highly recommend!

Highlights of LA

The whole trip was memorable. We saw all the top spots in LA with time allotted to get out and walk around some locations and one hour for lunch. Our driver Gabriell was very informative and safely drove at a pace where we could absorb the scenery.

Lots of information

The tour guide Gabriel was awesome! He knew tons of information and kept the facts goi g throughout the day. He was comical and also chill. He was great. The tour was amazing and I do reccomend to a friend.

Vendor canceled the Tour 11 hour notice

Horrible experience. At 8:00 the evening before the tour I get a call asking me to change to Monday instead of Sunday. I couldn’t because we were taking a cruise. At 9:00 I get a text that there will not be a tour. How I have to give them 24 hour cancellation notice and I don’t even get 12 hours

Good tour to check out LA

The tour was fairly good.... maybe too much in the van driving around to all the sites. Maybe pick a few less places and spend more time on the best..... Tour driver/ guide Gabriel was very knowledgeable about LA but did talk a bit too much and repeated the commentary a few times. On the whole well worth it.

First time in LA!

It was a great experience and our driver was very knowledgable, engaged, friendly and patience. If you want to explora LA finest spots in one day this is the tour for you!!! Highly recommend!!! 10/10

Great tour of LA

Gabe was fantastic and full of info. Great tour around LA. I would recommend for anyone who hasn’t been to LA.

Great overview.

Enjoyed hearing about all the trivia and history. Really helped with understanding what we were looking at. Small friendly group was wonderful to tour with.

Tour of LA

The tour guide was great very knowledgeable about sites and the city, great personality made everybody feel like a celebrity. I would definitely recommend this tour to family and friends.

Great trip

Hello, we enjoyed our tour. Our driver was excellent with information made it fun and he was funny also. I would recommend it to my friends

Great tour of LA!

Gabe was an amazing tour guide! He was very informative and took an interest in what we wanted to see. He even spotted a celebrity! We were able to hop off the van and take pictures. He made the ride very comfortable and even impressed my 14 year old. We had a great time! Thank you again Gabe.

Great All around Sightseeing 👍

The views of the city were amazing, I haven’t seen anything like it, I’m from Texas and this was a different story all around. Can’t wait to come back and experience it again!

LA trip from Longbeach

Very disorganized Forgot to pick us up When my daughter sent a review, the owner replied back very rude online. The computer autocorrected the names of the beach - Venice for Verona. He seemed to throw a fit online in his comments. I reached out to 2 other families on the trip to find out if they felt Venice beach was unsafe. They felt that it was not safe also. They said they stayed in the van with the driver. Couple of shopkeepers were suggesting we go back to the van also looking at little kids with us. It’s just an unfortunate situation. I am just making sure that others don’t feel unsafe on an expensive trip like this.

Stressful day of Travel.

This could have been very interesting trip. Unfortunately, it started out very disorganized. The driver drove away with us standing at the front of the hotel and us running behind him to catch him before the gate opens from our hotel. He did not verify who he had got into his van and had picked up wrong people instead of us. First part of the trip was nice. Then he left us for snacks for 45 minutes and immediately after for lunch for 1 hour which was not useful at all. I was under the impression that they would stop on Rodeo drive, Santa Monica and Lagoona beach. He did not stop at Rodeo drive, we had a very brief stop at Santa Monica. We were dropped off at Verona beach for 1 hour which was so crowded and most passengers felt unsafe and started to look for coffee shops and wait for the time of return. There was a family who waited with us in a coffee shop. The restrooms were extremely dirty. We could have stopped at a place with cleaner facilities and safer surroundings. We should have just stayed at Santa Monica beach.

A lot of driving and a lot of great Information

The trip was great and a wonderful tour guide!I would have enjoyed a little more time to visit at our stops but overall definitely enjoyed it!!

Great tour

Saw all the parts of LA we wanted. Driver Alberto was excellent. Great knowledge and made tour enjoyable

Tour of la

Overall worth while just wish shuttle would have showed up on time. No communication from them that they would be late.

Beverly Hills, rodeo...

Beverly Hills, rodeo drive….. that we don’t sto!! Sigh!😔 Chinese theatre, observatory , James dean.

Made totally memorable by a brilliant tour guide

It was Alberto’s humour and knowledge that made this a totally memorable tour. My partner and I have come away learning so much more about the history of Los Angeles, the movies and the stars. Highly recommended. Thank you Alberto 💕

Sunsetters Extravaganza!

We had a great day yesterday. Our tour guide was so awesome. He gave us so much information, he was fun and we laughed alot and he was kind. Quite a rare find in today's world

The driver makes it all better!!!

Very good tour and Alberto was the best tour guide. He was very funny and knowledgeable. I I'm will continue referring this company and him. Definitely wasn't boring like to I heard from someone else that had a different driver. Alberto definitely has the right job for his personality. Very reasonable!!!! .

Best tour ever!

Getting to see downtown Hollywood walk of fame and the big Hollywood sign were definitely highlights. Alberto, our tour guide, was absolutely the best guide you could ask for. He had a very unique sense of humor, was well educated and knowledgeable, and such a kind gentleman.

A little disappointed

Was a little disappointed in our tour guide Gabe, felt like he focused on unnecessary topics, like he was trying to convince us to move here. He was knowledgeable on the history and where things are located. His mic was not on at all times and the people in the back couldn’t hear what he was saying. The tour itself was average , we expected more stops where we could get off. We would have rather had more stops where we could get off for a short time verses long stops.

Book with Gabe

Had an outstanding tour with Gabe. We were picked up on time at our hotel. From there Gabe gave an amazing audio tour of LA, Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Plenty of stops and free time to enjoy the sites. He even went off the tour to drive us by the Hollywood Bowl. Again, amazing time with a great tour guide!! Thank you Gabe

Fantastic tour

Really fun tour that took us to a lot of key LA areas. Much easier than trying to see everything ourselves. We stopped at Oliver’s Street, Mel’s drive in, Griffith Observatory, walk of fame, and Venice Beach.

Excellent Tour, Great Host..

Great tour. My first of its kind and it didn't disappointment. Tour operator, Alberto, was great throughout the tour. will defo recommend this tour to my friends visiting LA.

Disappointing Tour

Hollywood Boulevard and Mel's Diner were very nice to see. Disappointed we didn't get to see many other important sites of LA. Not impressed with our tour guide either.

The guide, John, was...

The guide, John, was really good. He had lots of relatable information, jokes and stories. It was a great tour even though it rained and we didn't see the Hollywood sign. My only complaint is the PA system in the van. I could not hear the guide on the interstates, and had to strain to hear him the rest of the time. He says d it was turned up all the way.

Not worth the price

Eating lunch at Mel’s diner and the Observatory were nice . We waited an hour and a half for pick up. The driver went to the wrong hotel twice. Idk who’s fault that was. I know I provided the correct address.

Great tour highly recommended

Great guide/driver. We did this tour before and happily will do it again . Great that they will do hotel pick up and drop off

Fantastic LA tour!!

We had an amazing day touring LA, we got to see soo much during our tour, was great seeing all the sights & lunch at Mel’s Diner was delicious great place to stop. Communication about pick up time etc was really great. Dave our driver for Sunseeker Tours was fantastic very informative, friendly & knowledgeable. Mini bus was very comfortable. We would highly recommend booking this tour through Viator such great value for money
