| Our tourguide was knowledgable, professional, and committed to making sure that all of his customers got the most out of the tour and were comfortable. The theme of the tour might be a little dark for some, but for those of us who enjoy the offbeat and who have a good sense of humor, I recommend this it highly. | ||||||

Absolutely the Best Tour Ever

| Hollywood's Tragical History tour was both informative and entertaining. The intimate 13 person van was ideal for discussion and interacting with your fellow tourist. Being 55 years old I especially enjoyed the old Hollywood stories and sights. For me it was exciting to see one of the locations from Sunset Boulevard and then to watch the movie on TCM the very next night. The three hours make the tour even better because you are able to see much more during that time then a simple one hour tour. Scotts' knowledge and research into the various sights on the tour was amazing and you trusted that the information he was relaying was legitimate especially since you have a notebook of additional pictures to refer to that show the sights in news papers or actual filmed interviews. I have already convinced my friends and coworkers that we should book a tour as a group. Definitely a must see for anyone going to Hollywood for a vacation. | ||||||

good but perhaps a different form of transit?

| the tour was really really special and my boyfriend and i had a really good time. there is so much history to this city that i didn't know about before! however, although the van was really comfortable and well air-conditioned, it was really hard to see some of the sites because the windows were too small and not really well positioned! it would make the ride much more pleasant if one didn't have to lean constantly lean and jump from side to side... | ||||||

| What a wonderful tour, my guest and I wanted even more. Richard is an extremely knowledgeable tour guide and a nice person to spend an afternoon in a van with. Very comfortable ride, great air conditioning, and the van is quite clean. A person hardly notices the LA traffic and crazy drivers! A lovely showcase of REAL Hollywood history. I wouldn't hesitate to go again. Can't wait to take the Manson and the Movie tours. | ||||||

| The tour was good and informative. Our view from the back of the van was not as good as those sitting in front. | ||||||

| I'm a single father with a son and daughter. My son recently turned 22. For his birthday, I took him and his girl to a concert in L.A. I decided to also take them on the Dearly departed tour to fill in the time preceeding the concert. We had a great time on this tour. Our tour guide was, Richard... Friendly and informative... The van was comfortable... and the 3 hours did indeed fly by... I would recommend this tour highly M.B. Also... To: Scott. My name is, Marty Beaver. I recently found your, find a death site. I have an auto repair shop in, Banning, (Mayberry) Haha... Times/business being slow, I've enjoyed reading on your site very much. You write very good too. I plan on taking my daughter and her boyfriend on one of your tours soon... (probably the nasty nellie tour) I enquired to, Richard about the following, and he said to ask you when I received this poll/e-mail... Can you tell me where the, yellow McCartney (George Harrison) house is, and where the house is that The Beatles met Elvis? In fact, Any Beatle related addresses would be very interesting to me. (The Blue Jay Way house, or the Peter Fonda/Beatle house)... Etc... It'd be verrrry cooool to check them out when I take my daughter out there... Lastly, I must add... You're very lucky to be doing what you really enjoy as a living... I envy you... Please do, keep adding to the, Find a death site... I've almost read them all.... Hat's off and best reguards. Marty Beaver | ||||||

| Tour was ok. Got to go to some places that I hadn't been, such as where the Manson murders took place. However, the van is a little hard to see out of, especially if what is being shown is on the side you're not sitting. Also, was disappointed the tour doesn't go by where the OJ murders took place, considering this is probably the most famous murders ever let alone in CA. Would recommend, but probably not for $40. | ||||||

| Lots of details and sites in a short time. Scott keeps it relaxed and entertaining. When I'm back in the area, I will definitely check out his other tours. | ||||||

| I took the Dearly Departed Tour with Scott Michaels on a Saturday afternoon, and it was wonderful. Professional, appropriate stops, illustrated booklets for everyone on board to reinforce the tour, and almost an extra hour in time. The detail was excellent, the van comfortable, and Scott was extremely personable and thoughtful. He engaged all of us and was very knowledgeable about not only the gruesome sights but LA and Hollywood history in general. I liked it so much I booked a private tour to Hollywood Forever Cemetery, which was the highlight of my trip. Absolutely wonderful. | ||||||

| I have taken the Helter Skelter tour before, and I had to take the Tragical History Tour. My mom was in town and I decided to treat her to the best tour in LA, and we had the most fun! Scott's knowledge is vast and his humor is fantastic. I've lived here for 7 years and I learned so much on the tour and will absolutely recommend this to everyone I know! I will definitely be back for another tour with my fiancee and also when my parents come back into town! Thank you so much Scott, it made for an incredible Memorial Day weekend! Cheers! ~Nikki :) | ||||||

Underbelly of LA

| This is a good tour to show your friends and relatives the underbelly of Los Angeles. I would not recommend it for someone's first visit to LA, but if they have been here before it is interesting to see another side of the city. Scott is passionate about his work and welcomes questions. | ||||||

| scott michaels is a great tour guide, and we saw many, many culturally referenced things in our three plus hours of this tour. scott asked if we had any special requests before heading out. mine was to see where filmmaker kenneth anger lived. scott knew exactly where anger lived (in a transient hotel, down the block from a porn shop & jumbo's clown room, no less!) & was happy to oblige a drive-by. i would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the real, darker side of hollywood. forget those cheesy tours that leave every fifteen minutes on hollywood blvd.--this is the real deal! | ||||||
