| We had a blast on this tour, Scott takes you to many places where famous and infamous people have met their end, and the way he narrates it is hilarious. Highly recommended for those who appreciate the macabre and dark side of Hollywood! |

| This trip was an absolute blast! Being an international visitor and not knowing much about Hollywood history I really was blown away by Scotts tour. He was not only helpful with the booking (I had a small concern which Scott promptly took care of) he went out of his way to make sure all his guests got an excellent experience. In a place were people are touting tickets on the street and being in your face to get you to buy their trip, Dearly Departeds low key approach suggests quality from the start. Every other guest on board was there for the second time (which speaks for itself), I look forward to doing it again myself one day!! |

| MY HUSBAND AND I WERE THE ONLY TWO ON THE TOUR THAT DAY. iT WAS GREAT BECAUSE WE HAD THE TOUR GUIDE TO OURSELVES AND COULD SEE EVERYTHING. THE PRESENTATION OF THE SITES WITH BACKUP MUSIC OR TAPED AUDIO SET THE STAGE FOR EACH SITING. IT WAS INTERESTING AND INFORMATIVE.
WE HAD A GREAT TIME! |

Great fun for all the family

| I loved this tour. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and everything was saw was interesting. I was pleasantly surprised by the mix of people on the tour (all ages) but although the tour is focused on the more macabre parts of Hollywood history, it was still a great general tour and not too gory or requiring of any special knowledge. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour. |

feels like having a fun personal tour guide.

| 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? |
