| 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! |

| 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! |

| 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! |

| 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! |
