Traveler Tips


For the price, it's totally worth getting the exercise and meeting some cool people.
The hike was not so hard but it took a while, which would have been boring with no guide.

Sun finally came out for our walk! Chris our guide was great. We did the 1/2 way point and that had great views of the sign.
A great morning hike ! Very memorable.
Nicky_L, Mar 2023
I had a great time with Chris who was a superb guide. We were in a small group that was fantastic. I found the journey up to the top to be so worth it and we got up and down with no troubles. Truly stunning up there on the most beautiful day. Chris was warm, kind and very informative.
Great experience!
Bethany_S, Feb 2023
This was a great tour, worth every penny. Our tour guide Emily was amazing. Super friendly and knowledgeable and really made the experience. The hike itself is great. Amazing views of the whole of LA. It was a perfect start to my solo travels. Thank you Emily!
The tour was suppose to...
Valerie_M, Jan 2023
The tour was suppose to be 2 hours. The guy basically kept coming up with random questions and taking long to drag the time knowing it will only take approximately 20 minutes to get up to the point where we were taken. And he insisted we tip him over and over again as if it was a mandatory part of the tour. So don’t expect much. We finally decided to go on our own to the top of the Hollywood Sign. When initially the tour guide lied and said where he took us was the closest we can get to the sign. But we asked about how to get to the very top where we saw a few people standing and luckily got the chance to get the “closest”. We had to leave the group and do it on our own to do that. And if you want a picture as you see on the profile. You will have to go on your own to the very top where you would be behind the sign and have a breathtaking view which that would definitely be worth the money. On top of that he kept encouraging the group not to go places they had planned seeing, saying they were no good and not worth it and just gross. If someone wants to see a place, guess what? Let them. No place is ever going to be perfect , if that person just wants to take a quick selfie or see that spot that’s okay. You don’t know if maybe that place holds something or is special to that person to talk negative about it. Or joke about how “don’t take pictures or look at that cross over there we don’t care about Jesus we want a picture of you with the Hollywood Sign” a few people where like what. Be respectful of people’s religion, that wasn’t funny at all. But to say don’t go see rich people home that’s just weird and then contradict yourself and talk about rich homes and how someone famous lived on that house halfway up the path makes no sense. To say the tour is 90 minutes and when I said I read it was two hours and to respond 90 minutes it’s 2 hours makes no sense. We went on our own at last we had enough when after just 20 minutes of walking up a path he said we would be turning around and that was the tour. Like are you kidding me that was it? Thank goodness we decided to leave the group and see that amazing view worth so much, don’t let the tour guide miss you out on it

Hollywood sign
justine_p, Jan 2023
Katy our tour guide was so knowledgeable and informative. It was a wonderful hike, although we started at 2.45 pm finishing at 5.30 just a beautiful part of the day . As we finished it was dark, the company should organise transport down the hill as Ubers will not come, reception is bad and you are basically on your own to get down the hill. Dangerous and uncomfortable for women travelling alone. This company needs to increase the price to allow for that final transport option. Very important to consider as it was not communicated to the group.

Official Hollywood sign LA
Luis_M, Jan 2023
I booked the Official Hollywood sign LA Tour don't waste your money, the guide didn't even take us to the highest point of the sign and it definitely didn't take 2.5 hours, it's more like 40 minutes walk to get where the guide take you and you can get to the sign easly without paying someone to show the way. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY.

The tour shows 2.5 hours...
Winnie_T, Jan 2023
The tour shows 2.5 hours and we use 30 min to introduce each other then only 1 hour to the picture site then head back ….. so we decided walk by ourself to the top
Response from Host, Jan 2023
Thanks for taking time to leave a review, and after talking to the guide we were able to get a little more clarity on the situation. The day you did the tour was in the middle of some (uncharacteristically) rainy and foggy days in LA. That day, your guide made the (correct) decision that it wouldn't be safe to continue the tour to the back of the sign (and you possibly even got caught in the pouring rain since you continued the trip the back on your own when the rain once again started falling). It sounds, though, like the guide did not make clear the reasoning for not proceeding to the back of the sign, so we sincerely apologize that your experience was negatively impacted. Please reach out to us directly so we can make this right as our attempts to reach you have gone unanswered.
Must do!

Even though there was a drizzle of rain the hike was made awesome by our guide…Katie!! She was fun and stopped to explain the stories and history of our adventure. It was a special experience.

The tour was fun and we learned information as we hiked. We several took pictures and had several laughs. If we ever visit LA again, will definitely booked this tour!
Freaking amazing!!!
Mariafernanda_S, Dec 2022
What an amazing experience!!!! Our tour guid Liz B was absolutely awesome! She had lots of knowledge about not just the sign, but the land! It is a long hike up and she kept us entertained and told us stories and facts! And was very opened to questions! Which i loved ! I had to stop twice as I am super out of shape and she was very very patient! Which I appreciated so much! It truly was amazing she took us to different breath taking spots where the views where just ahhh what can I say…. You’ll never see those views again. It was beautiful I highly highly recommend this tour and if you get Liz b as your tour guide you’re in for a sweet hike!
Fun intro to LA
Jana_A, Dec 2022
We enjoyed our hike with Gil! He gave a great overview of LA as well. We do think we actually got the shorter tour though since it only lasted an hour and we didn’t go behind the sign.
Noelle was a great hike guide!
Ryan_M, Nov 2022
This was such a fun thing to do to start off our morning. We completed the 2.5 hour hike to behind the Hollywood sign with Noelle. She wasn’t just an amazing hike guide but knew a lot the history of the park and pointed out some great sights. She gave us some good ideas for food and drinks while in LA and how to have the best time.

Terrible service
Derinesha_P, Nov 2022
No integrity. If I could Zero stars, I would. No courtesy. I wouldn’t recommend booking with this specific company.
Response from Host, Dec 2022
We see that you left a 1 star review but didn't provide context in your review so we can do better in the future. Upon investigation, I can see that you didn't show up at your ticketed time, then requested a refund after the start of your chosen ticketed time. Our cancellation policy offers a very generous 24 hour window to cancel in advance for a full refund as we schedule staff based on expected guest counts. Waiting until after the start of the tour meant that other guests also weren't able to book those spots. If you bought tickets for literally anything else, you would not be eligible for a refund after the fact.

Fun, Nice Workout, Great Tour Guide
Doreen_D, Oct 2022
I thought Gil the tour guide was outstanding! He had terrific energy, humor, and enthusiasm. I loved hearing the history of the sign and of other sights we saw like, Griffith Park, the studios, LA neighborhoods, etc. I also appreciated his tips on restaurants, activities, comedy clubs, etc. It was fun!
