| The Dearly Departed tour was the highlight of our six day LA vacation! Not only would I recommend it for people who have never taken it before, but I also look forward to going on it again the next time we're in town....definitely a must! |

We enjoyed ourselves

| It was a really cool tour, that I'll take again when family comes in town. Los Angeles is a bit sprawling, so it took a while to get from place to place. The information in the in-between bits was good. And the highlighted portions were spectacular. The recordings were fantastic and the host was great.
Will definitely do the tour again! |

| Two of us had done this tour before with Scott Michaels and it was worth every penny. Scott gave us so much information and answered all questions asked with great detail. Bragging about how interesting this tour was, we recruited 4 others to join us...although a year later we were all excited to do the tour again. To our surprise our tour guide was not Scott and immdeiately the excitement for the tour was quiclkly gone. Second time around I thought the tour was average...especially after doing the tour with Scott the 1st time, it was just not the same.
Please consider an option to let people know before they pay who will be giving the tour. We thought we were paying for Scott Michaels who is well known, especially for his Dearly Departed Tours. |

| the tour was very good, only 3 comments had I known the back seats of the van were less roomy I would have called shotgun or tried the first row if they provided more leg room for those of us very tall people. while a 2nd stop was suggested no one seemed to speak up and say they needed one, maybe have a destignated 2nd restroom stop, if nothing else just to get stretch the legs. I do like to tip on great service and I did tip but all the signs in the van recommended 15-20% maybe change the price of the ticket from $40 to 46.00-48.00.
Otherwise a very fun tour and would recommend it, and my fat and tall friends I would still recommend and would just tell them to get the choice cheats on the van. |

| This tour had not one dull moment. Our guide, Richard, did a great job with a lot of detailed information and helpful tourist tips,too. We'd do it all over again. |

| it was a combo of dearly departed/and some celebs homes etc. plus, we saw the hollywood sign! i truly loved hearing about/seeing The Osbournes ex house, one of Marilyns homes, where Mae West used to live, and where they paved paradise & put up a parking lot!! and of course the story of the Hollywood Sign Jumper, why would someone walk miles up a hill to kill themselves? i guess she had to think it out first! i wish we would of heard more about: Marilyn, Tupac, and the Wonderland murders. but at least he gave us a map of how to get to Marilyns grave! thats intense. anyway, don't park @ the Farmers Market= i think its easier to park in the middle of the st. sideways, besides there!! just when u think u found a spot, its a darn 20 min. limited spot! then u have to drive around in circles until some happy shopper finally moves their car, while your trying to get the spot before the other 5-6 cars waiting gets it!! |

Money and Time Well Spent!

| I lived in LA for 10 years and knew nothing of what I was told on the tour. A great job is done of blending audio, pictures and of course the actual sites. It was interesting and I was amazed at how our guide knew the answer to any and every question he was asked! You will not be disappointed if you do this tour, I would and will recommend this to everyone I know! |
