No real issues here. I enjoyed the tour. Lots of gates and thus the movie home portion got borring pretty fast.
It was disapointing to see on the voucher they provided at the tour box office that tour is worth less than what we paid for it on Viator ...

Was great!

I've used Viator while traveling in other countries before - and comparably speaking, this was horrendous. The check in process was extremely disorganized.. From the time of our arrival, we waited a good 1 hour, before our tour guide finally got on the bus and introduced himself. He started by complaining about how tired he was, having only gotten 6 hours of sleep. After his lousy, narcissistic introduction, we walked back around and looked at the Chinese Theatre (where we had been waiting all that time) again for fifteen minutes. No description, nothing. Just, "Here it is. Meet me again in 15 minutes." After that, we finally got back on the bus and began the tour. Mind you this was now about 10:05 (and we had been instructed to arrive at 8:45 am) We drove to see the Hollywood sign. Then drove by all of the stars homes. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, but I couldn't help feeling that he was also completely full of crap. After seeing the stars homes, we drove down Rodeo Dr. Then, at 11:45, the driver/tour guide dropped us off at the Farmers market - again we were on our own. So, what was supposed to be a three-hour tour was actually more like an hour and forty minutes. After eating lunch on our own for 45 minutes, a different driver came to pick us up to return us to the Chinese Theatre. Again we waited on the hot bus for a good 20 minutes while this driver disappeared and came back having bought himself some lunch. My suggestion - buy yourself a good map of the stars homes and drive around to see them yourself!!! This will save you about $50 per person!

Gude was very knowledgeable but stops were not long enough to get really good photos of movie star homes

Really enjoyed our Hollywood tour from 'Stan the Man.' Friendly, informative and extremely knowledgable. We did a half day tour, as we felt that a full day would have been a bit much. Think it was a good decision, as it was very hot, although the air conditioning in the van was fine.

Interesting but very dependent on tour bus driver, our one was OTT on knowing all the stars personnally and being big friends of his after the tenth one it got too much, we also didnt get the stops the guide said, but for seeing the homes it was worth the cost

Once we left on the bus, everything was good. However, getting to the Starline office was mass confusion. There were people everywhere in long lines and nobody knew where to go.

Unfortunately we had a grouchy tour guide who was not happy to answer questions and gave very little information about what we were seeing. We found ourselves trying to eavesdrop on other tours so we could actually learn something. The other downfall to the tour was that it was a regular tour bus instead of an open top bus like other companies had. It made it very difficult to see things she was pointing out. Overall I would not recommend this tour to anyone.

Knowledgeble tour guide, saw some awesome houses, however too bad we were on the wrong side of the bus where all the houses were located.

Was rushed but you see all the important parts of LA.
