| Scott did a great job. His presentation were not " canned" and they
made me feel like I was going for a ride with a friend who was just gossipping
about the area. He really encourages questions which more then likely helps the tour evolve. I have his magnet in my collection so I can refer my local friends to this tour. If Scott ever comes to Fort Lauderdale, I can show him the notorious and nefarious that I live around :) |

Unique and unusual - not your standard Hollywood

| I went on this tour back in 1994 when Scott used to drive you around in a hearse! It was very unique and fascinating. I've always recommended the tour over all these years. The tour includes a narrative including a booklet of photos of the original scenes of the crime and how the homes looked back then - in addition to occasional audio of 911 calls related to the crime.This past tour I took my teenage daughter and her three friends. They definitely found it interesting but didn't know a lot of the older stars mentioned on the tour. So I would recommend it mainly to adults especially as some of the narrative and photos are graphic. (They do warn people of this before they buy tickets). But there's a ton of locations shown and many other things pointed out, such as famous places and star's homes. If you are looking for something different to do in Hollywood this is definitely it! You will not be disappointed! (There is a separate tour of the Manson Murders)
Recommendation of locations for the operators: Phil Hartman, Richard Jeni, OJ Simpson route from Rockingham to S. Bundy and Nicole Simpson Condo, drive up to Greystone Mansion to get a better look and talk about the murder committed there ( I would dump Mae West if you need the time) |

| As enthusiasts of the dearly departed, having visited many cemeteries in the area, we thought we knew it all! We’ve read many books and searched the web until our fingers were raw searching for stories about the dearly departed. We were convinced we would be disappointed taking Scott’s Dearly Departed Tour. However, in the first few minutes we were pleasantly surprised and knew we were in for a real treat. Scott is not only informative but entertaining. He is an expert historian and knows how to tell a story as if he were there.
If you want to learn a lot about LA and many secrets no one else knows, you can’t miss this tour. |

| This was an excellent tour if you are into the macabre, but even if you aren't there were plenty of Old Hollywood sites (Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio's Old House) and new Hollywood sites (bathroom that George Michael made famous).
Without a doubt the best part of the tour was the tour guide, Scott Michaels. He is clearly passionate about his work and he goes out of his way to answer any question and is incredibly knowledge about old and new Hollywood.
The only thing I would have liked, that was not included would have been a tour of the one of the cemeteries (although we did pass the Hollywood Forever Cemetery and were informed about who was interred), but an extra hour or so might be too much for some. |

| Im a huge fan of the history of Hollywood. I enjoyed the tour so much because our tour guide was not only very friendly but new what he was talking about. My sister & I had such an awesome time that we are going to take the other tours.

| I am 55 and had three 25 year olds with me. They didn't know who some of the stars were. Like George Burns, Bella Lugosi etc. But they had fun.. It could have been more morbid for us.. I don't know what that says about us..But none the less we will be booking the Manson tour very soon. And our guide Richard was great!!!! Very informative..Thanks
