Tour 1 – Essential Los Angeles
Tour of Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, and Hollywood

Ritzy Rodeo Drive is celebrated for world-class shopping, but let us also show you some alternatives that are big hits with the locals, including The Grove and Farmer’s Market, Robertson Boulevard and Melrose Avenue. Then, you will be introduced to Museum Square with LACMA, The La Brea Tar Pits and The Petersen Car Museum. We will make our way into Hollywood and see the famous gates of Paramount Pictures. Next, we will wind our way into the eclectic Hollywood Hills and be rewarded with an amazing view of our most famous landmark – The Hollywood Sign! View the massive Hollywood Bowl with a stage that has accommodated all the greats in the recording industry. After a brief stop at The Walk of Fame, Grauman’s Chinese Theater, and The Dolby Theater (formerly the Kodak), we’ll cruise down the always hip and happening West Hollywood Sunset Strip with its hotels, nightclubs, rock and roll venues, and restaurants. Then, we’ll travel through Beverly Hills 90210, the zip code of the rich and famous, and view the breathtaking celebrity mansions. This Los Angeles tour is Glitterati Tours most popular excursion.

This tour also includes the mega-mansions of the millionaires and billionaires that consistently make international headlines in numerous business journals.

On this tour, you will see where they lived, partied, died, and ultimately, where quite a few are buried. Every corner has a story to tell, and Glitterati Tours can be your medium that connects you to the headlines that shocked the world.
