Tremendously entertaining.

The Dearly Departed Tour is worth every penny. Tourguide Scott is funny and informative. If you dig the "dark" side of Hollywood history, you'll love this tour.

Did not highlight a requested sight.

When I first boarded the bus with my friend, Scott asked us if we would mind waiting for a party that was late. Although I didn't understand this, given the strict policy on the website, I was not in the majority, so we were delayed. I also had talked to Scott about a particular incidence, at a particular building. The death of Diane Linkletter at Shoreham Towers, where I happen to live! Although Scott seemed knowledgeable about the incident, by the time we drove by Shoreham Towers, he seemed to be in a hurry, and didn't even mention the incident, which I think is one of the more interesting mysterious deaths around. I believe Scott was trying to make up for lost time due to the lateness of other participants. It really felt like a slight, and a missed opportunity to speak about a fascinating "death". As this tour bills itself as a tour of famous murders, mysterioius deaths, I would suggest more emphasis on this publisized aspect of the tour. The "George Michael Memorial Park", stop was interesting, but took a long time and had nothing to do with famous homicides/suicides. Sincerely, John

Great tour, Scott knows the city and it secrets.

Scott knows his city and all the dirt, secrets and history of it. He enjoys sharing it and hearing about his customers stories and inputs. And he is very personable, which made the tour that much more to enjoy. I would highly recommend it if you have any interest in the history of crimes and deaths of LA and the surrounding area, this is the tour to take. The van was very comfortable to ride in and it was nice being in a small group in a smaller vehicle that could be maneuvered around the city quite easily. Thank you Scott for sharing what you take to heart. Chuck and Donna from Salem, Oregon.

Loved the entire experience

Just the concept of the tour was exciting. The information was fantastic and the tour guide drives smooth and safely. So much information, can't remember all of it. The tour guide was so freindly and very funny. I would recommend this tour to anyone who lives anywhere. I live in California for 30 years and this was one of the most exciting excursions I can add to my list. Its fun to do a tourist adventure in your own city.

Our Dearly Departed tour was a ghostload of fun! Our driver, Scott, was informative and funny with wry asides about everything from those who have moved on to LA drivers! Highly recommended!

Our tour guide was well informed and really put 100% of his passion for the macabre into the tour. We are all obssessed with the Eddie Murphy/Shalimar cover up! I would th 3 hour tour was well worth the price.

One of my favorite things in LA

Scott was a great tour guide and extremely informative. The tour showed cites I never knew existed right in my own backyard. Although I miss the original Grave Line Tour, I'm so glad Scott has created the new Dearly Departed Tour to carry on the tradition. My only suggestion would be to make it more macabre. Bravo!

Great tour of Hollywood

This is the third time I've been out with Scott. It's like watching a fantastic movie that you want to see over and over again....he puts on a different show each outing and always keeps it fascinating and interesting. I hope to do it again next year. Everyone should take a Scott Michael's tour if they are going to Hollywood and want the inside story of the town.

I feel the tour was well worth the time and money. The owner/operator was informative, brought humour, facts and location all into a tour that I would recommend to anyone visiting the LA area.
