Noel made the whole 2+ hrs enjoyable and fun. She was very knowledgeable. Great experience would recommend.
Great hike with Noelle! The climb was approx 3 hrs with plenty of breaks built in. Noelle is very knowledgeable and shares historical facts, nature facts and also a fantastic photographer for those family photos. Our 10 year old kept up with no issues, if you’re considering this as a family activity.
Without a doubt, this was one of the best experiences of my trip to Los Angeles! The hike through Griffith Park was much more than just a simple walk: it was a true journey of discovery through nature, breathtaking views, and the history of Los Angeles. A very special thank you goes to our guide, Noelle Hoffman, who made everything even more special. She was truly amazing: knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, and passionate. She didn’t just lead us along the trail, but shared so many interesting facts, explained what we were seeing, and helped us experience the park in a completely different way. What I appreciated the most was her ability to engage us throughout the entire hike, creating a pleasant atmosphere and making us feel comfortable at all times. Thanks to her explanations and enthusiasm, every point along the trail felt like it had a story to tell. The hike also offers spectacular views over Los Angeles, and reaching the Griffith Observatory area was truly exciting. The scenery along the way is something I will hardly ever forget. I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone who wants to see Los Angeles from a different perspective, immersing themselves in nature and discovering the city’s hidden gems. If you have the chance, choose this experience: the guide truly makes all the difference! An experience I would definitely do again and one that I will keep as one of my most beautiful memories of Los Angeles. ❤️
Wonderful tour and views of LA- moderate difficulty with the hike, but my 12 year old did fine. Tour guide (Mathew) very knowledge and made the hike memorable .
Had a great time with a knowledgeable guide who took us through Griffith Park and have interesting info about the history of the area.
Our guide was absolutely brilliant. His knowledge of LA (current & past) was extensive. He was super helpful and kind and very patient. The walk had stunning views over LA and the hills all around.
An amazing hike with two fantastic guides, Noelle and Katy!! Noelle and Katy gave great insight and color and lots of laughs along the way. Highly recommend!!!
Katie and Noelle were brilliant! We had so much fun with them. They are excellent guides. Could answer all our questions, point out all the interesting stuff and they were fun! A great experience!
Katie and Noelle are EXCELLENT. We had such a good experience
Sarah was a wonderful guide. When we started out on the planned hike, she could tell that we were struggling with the steepness of the terrain, so she suggested a less steep trail, and we made it much more easily!
