Good tour. The guide and driver were excellent. Nevertheless, the tour passes through the houses of celebrities but they are very difficult to see. Also, I hoped we could stop in Sunset Strip but we did not.

Good tour. The guide and driver were excellent. Nevertheless, the tour passes through the houses of celebrities but they are very difficult to see. Also, I hoped we could stop in Sunset Strip but we did not.
Everything was great! I would book tours from Starline again. I had schedule conflict so I needed to switch the tour date and the gentleman in the office was very nice and allowed us to book another tour on the same day. The guide Ricky Ricardo was knowledgeable and went at very comfortable pace. I learned a lot and saw many nice sceneries.
We were supposed to to see homes not fog. I could have seen the same in the great Smokey mountains national park which is where I am from .Very Very disappointed in the quality and definitely the price to rob someone a trip if a lifetime to.see this at 400 dollars not recommended in the least Such a shame to have your expectations ruined by such a greedy business
This was an incredible tour. Lisa was a great tour guide. A really fun way to see LA in little time! we loved being on the open air bus.
The tour was amazing, would highly recommend. Our guide, Lisa, was lots of fun, with witty commentary and interesting insights. We got to see loads of cool houses and views.
We had a great time. Our driver/ guide was very cordial and full of facts. Loved the rides at Universal and the sites on house tour.
So cool seeing all the houses and beautiful views. Especially Hollywood hills. Darin was very informative and knew the answers to anything we asked. Get that man a raise!
The staff on our tour was very kind and I did feel like they cared about our safety and us enjoying ourselves. Unfortunately I do feel as if the tour was very out dated. For example all of the pictures are in black and white and just printed on paper. I think at this time period the tour should at least have colored images or a tv showing the actors. Another examples is that referenced a lot of actors from the 60s and a lot of people in the audience did not know who the guides were referring too. This time period we have so many famous people and influencers that I thought it was wrong to focus on people that are irrelevant. Also, it was extremely hard to see houses. I know the StarLine company is not in control of the trees and hedges that the owners place on the property, but it would be good for someone who is in charge of the routes to take that into consideration. I felt as if the majority of the trip I spent looking at trees, bushes, and gates. All in all I did not think that the money for this tour was worth it. Unfortunately I would not be recommending it to anyone in the future.
You won't regret this tour. It provides historical information of many places you might, but unlikely won't (unless you've done your own extensive research), drive by. The tour covered places spanning over 100 years of movies, TV, and music culture. Sure, you can tour on your own but it's so, SO, much better with a guide. Daren was a terrific guide and provided both insight and wit as we passed by otherwise innocuous locations. If you've invested time and money to visit LA, do it right and take this tour! Also a shout out to the admin staff who were so helpful!
Hi, I recently joined a Hollywood tour and wanted to share my experience. The sales and tour guide were fantastic, providing an engaging and informative experience that made the tour enjoyable and worthwhile (5 stars). However, the management was a letdown. I found them to be quite rude and abrupt, both with customers and staff, which negatively impacted the overall experience (1 star).
