| great, informative, entertaining tour. scott is very enthusiastic about the tour he gives and
encourages comments and questions from everyone. also, he was very attentive to my 80 year old dad (who has some trouble with his eyesight) which we both really appreciated. highly recommended--more like having a friend take you on a tour as opposed to having a bored, robotic tour guide. |

| Being a transplant to LA, I found this tour to be fascinating and educational. It reflected on magical tales of the city along with its gory past. I took my parents and we all enjoyed it thoroughly. |

| We live in El Segundo near LAX. We were the only locals on the tour. What a great experience! Just driving through areas and where crime scences happened was an awesome experience. Our tour guide Scott was very informative and entertaining. What a great day we had and I would highly recommend this to any one visiting Hollywood and even locals. We had a blast ! I have recommended this tour to many of my friends, and I would love to do it again. Thanks Scott for a great and historical day. Love, Marilyn @ Jeff Sollee. |

| The Dearly Departed Tour was outstanding. This was our 2nd time on this tour because we were so impressed the first time. The tour promptly departed at 1:00 and returned around 4:30. Scott was a knowledgable tour guide and shared a wealth of interesting information. The van was comfortable and it was relaxing to be chauffered around the areas of Bel Air, Beverly Hills, and Hollywood. I highly recommend the tour to anyone who in interested in Hollywood history. |

| The tour was great. I'll be taking it again the future, I'm sure of it. I highly recommend it not just for fans of old Hollywood, current Hollywood, or whatever. Even casual movie and TV fans will appreciate this tour.
For me it was a thrill going through legendary parts of Hollywood, some I recognized, some I didn't. But now I will.
There's wasn't as much "death" and gloom as I thought... and kind of hoped for, but it was still loads of fun. I guess Hollywood itself is already full of that so it's good that the tour has nice parts where you go through beautiful neighborhoods, where as yet, no vicious crimes have occured. Or have they? |

| I've taken many a tour in Hollywood when friends come in to town and have never been to CA. Many of them are lame, but not this one!!! I initially thought "a three hour tour!!?!?!??!?!" But, man did it go by fast! The tour guide is full of facts, gossip, rumors, news, and we were thrilled. The sites were awesome, and were not the typical boring stuff you get on the usual local tour. This man knows his stuff! He is engaging, fun and provocative. This is not your typical Hollywood tour. If you are a boring person, take another tour. If you are a fan of movies, tv and music , take this one. |

| i read find a death almost every day so when we decided to go to LA i booked our dearly departed tour first thing. i was more excited to meet scott than anything and i was not disappointed. scott is friendly and funny and is loaded with information about hollywood, old and new. scott is interested in preserving what is left of old classic hollywood, something i think is important even though i don't live there and probably will not have the opportunity to return. my husband had little interest in the dearly departed tour but was delighted he took it. i highly recommend this tour to anyone who visits hollywood, you learn lots of interesting info and have fun. |

| My husband and I really enjoyed the Dearly Departed tour. The tour guide was pleasant and extremely knowledgable. We are recommending it to our friends! The tour was both interesting and a bit scary at times. We loved it! |

| The tour and the tour guide was very informative. I've lived in Southern California for a long time and someof the fact and places where places and facts I had heard long ago about, but found it very interested to see the actual places where everthing happened. Seeing some of ald hollywood landmarks made me want to see more and learn more. |
