Takes you by a lot of the famous crime scenes in the LA area. I did think it strange that the OJ site was not included. Guide was extremely knowledgable and fun!

Great tour! Maybe a little long, but really great!

Tour was wonderful! Our tour leader was totally enthusiastic which made it fun. Loved the way you played music or 911 calls, etc to set the tone to the upcoming house/event location. The book of pictures were great too (we were thinking maybe could display them on a tv monitor or something like that so don't have to hand out books to everyone, but the books are nice too). I loved the way you put fun stuff (like Matt LeBlonc appt & high school for Grease) intermixed in the tour to lighten it up a bit at times (I think this is a great idea so it's not too somber..and those are great things to see that were unexpected & a nice surprise for the tour). Only tiny thing I could recommend is maybe to trim down to 2.5 hrs or so..seemed a little long, but you definitely get your money's worth. Loved that it went all over & hit so many different areas of town (even ones that as a local, I haven't been to). Only other thing I would do is to advertise more of what you see on the tour on your website..you mention a few highlights, but there are just so many more things you could list that would bring people to your tours (like Matt Leblonc house, Madonna house, Marilyn Monroe locations, Grease Highschool, etc.). I would try to list as many as possible & use these as key words on web searches. Overall, tour was excellent & the price is definitely right..you really get a lot for what you pay for! We loved our tour guide..his enthusiam & his availability to questions after the tour..we also felt very safe with his great driving skills which I'm sure was a challenge, but he made it look easy. We forget his name, but it was Sun 1PM tour on Sat Oct 25th. Thanks again for a great time!

The tour covered the murderous, quirky, and celebrity aspects of Hollywood. As a local, I was impressed with the tour and learned more interesting facts about the city. The tour keeps your interests with fascinating locations, audio media, and a knowledgeable tour guide. The ride around the city was comfortable and enjoyable.

My wife and I did not expect such a well thought out and entertaining tour. It was very informative with some humor thrown in. Listening to some of the recorded testimonies & depositions was chilling! Highly recommended!

Excellent way to see Holywood
Sat, Oct 25, 08   9:30 AM roswoodcock Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
This was our only tour of Hollywood and it was really good. It covered the geography and history of Hollywood as well as giving lots of snippets of deadly info. It was a great way to do a tour but with an extra nuance. Out teenagers loved it (but it would not be suitable for kids under 12) and it had plenty of old Hollywood to satisfy the nostalgia seekers amongst us! Highly recommended!

AMAZING! We had a WONDERFUL time!!
Fri, Oct 24, 08   1:00 PM emmyk805 Female 20-29 Local Unspecified
Well we took the Dearly Departed tour on Friday the 24th of October and it was everything that we expected it to be! Scott really knows his stuff about all things Hollywood/LA and it was as great as we'd hoped. We are ABSOLUTELY going to go on this tour again, but next time, privately (no matter what the cost) because all of the other people in the group were horribly dumb and I don't think that they knew what tour they were going on (as they were very excited to see stars homes). We weren't there for that though, we took the tour to see the fascinating sights and hear the morbidly interesting stories to go along with them. So, if you are looking for an incredible tour, and (I can't stress this enough) you are a fan of findadeath.com or any of Scott's other information that he offers, then I VERY STRONGLY suggest that you take this tour. Now, if you are looking to go on a tour of LA and want to see stars homes and crap like that, then I do NOT suggest this tour for you at all, maybe some other tour would be better suited for you, but this one is fabulous if you know what you are getting yourself into!

Fun & Entertaining

We really enjoyed this tour. (Especially the out of towners. Richard was an awesome guide and added much excitement and life to what otherwise might have been a very bland experience We especially enjoyed the Silverlake and outer lying areas just out of Hollywood and their history. I would very much recommend this tour and when you sign up, ask for RICHARD as your guide.

Dearly Departed tour well worth it
Wed, Oct 22, 08   12:00 PM jehogan Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The Dearly Departed tour was fun, informative, and entertaining. Our guide was knowledgeable and very accommodating and kept us entertained and had myriad stories to tell. I would recommend this tour to anyone. I think the only thing I didn't like was that it was sometimes difficult to see things on the opposite side of the van from where I was sitting. Larger wrap around windows would have been nice, or even an open-air vehicle.

Fascinating
Sun, Oct 19, 08   1:00 PM ryanbecky Female 50-59 Local Family Without Children
We had a fantastic time! The three hours flew by. We could of stayed on the van much longer. Our tour guide was entertaining and extremely knowledgeable. We found the audio narration, and recordings of people and events, and the photo book added an extra dimension. We would definitely go on this tour again and are telling all our friends about it. Well worth the money.

Lots of Fun!!
Sun, Oct 12, 08   1:00 PM JonSawyer Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Richard was a great host and his knowledge of Hollywood is encyclopedic. He has a great sense of humor which is very necessary in his business. The tour was fantastic. The only negative comments I have are these: 1. The seats are too small/narrow. Even little ladies were complaining about the seats. 2. The van restricted the view. You need a vehicle that allows your customer to view sights that are on all sides of the vehicle, even "up". More windows, plexiglass, etc. would be a great help. My wife and I would definitely take the tour again, it was well worth the money and a lot of fun!!
