| 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

| We're a family group - children aged 14 & 11 yrs. They didn't know some of the older famous people that were mentioined on the tour but both knew enough to enjoy it. My husband and I thought it was great - really interesting stories. Our guide was Richard. His delivery of the stories was great - slighty dead-pan, ironic humour, which had me chuckling away for a lot of the tour. The stories are what make this tour so good - without them the tour would just be driving around looking at sights but the stories brought them to life. As well as Richard's commentary, there were snippets of music, 911 calls, interviews and other facts, which were interspersed with the commentary. We all had a folder of photos, which went along with the tour. We covered a lot of different areas of LA.
If you like something slightly different. more individualised than the mass tour operators provide, then this is the tour for you. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
Thanks, Richard - I'm still smiling when I think of some of your comments! |

| I thought it was intresting some of the tour was really, really intresting and other parts of the tour where very long.it would have been nice to stop at the cementary to see some of the actual grave sites especially at the westwood cementary.the guide made the tour as intresting as possible.also its called "Dearly Departed "why take time to see where George Michaels was arrested and where Hugh Grant was caught?? other than that was fun and interesting. |

| It's always nice to have a theme when you get on a bus for a city tour. As the places you see are accompanied with stories, things start to get much more interesting. This is a tour where the creators have really done their research. More importantly, they do a great job of keeping the tour updated with the most recent developments in Hollywood history. You can actually get to see all the celebrity homes they point out to you rather than merely their security gates, parking garages, or trees. A lot is covered, from Beverly Hills to Sunset Strip, from Hollywood to Los Feliz and Silverlake. The tragedies will make you feel sad but your tour guide will not let your sadness get deeper as another sight will be coming up pretty soon. Richard was the guide in my tour and he does a perfect job. |

| We had such a great time on the tour. Not only was it a great tour of those dearly departed, but it's a great tour of the city as well. Highly reccomend this to folks, both local and travelling. Would even do it again!
Thanks for such a great time.

| I went once before and enjoyed it just as much as the first time. It was informative and entertaining. Would do it a third time and probably will sooner than later. |

| My son and I went on this tour and really enjoyed it. Richard (our tour guide) was very enthusiastic about all locations and told many funny (and sometimes sad) stories about each location that we passed by. We also had a good group of people and had some good conversations about different places. |

| We loved this tour. In addition to the "dearly departed" portion they also cover a number of star homes and LA sites. Our 2 teens were very intrigued by the tour. We would highly recommend this tour when visiting LA. |
