The Hollywood Sign is a famous sight in Los Angeles, on top of Mt. Lee in Griffith Park. It was first built in 1923 as an ad for houses but has since become a symbol of Hollywood dreams. To catch the best views, head to Griffith Observatory, Hollywood & Highland, Brush Canyon Trail, or Lake Hollywood Park. While hiking trails offer nice sights, remember you can't get too close. Keep in mind, that the Hollywood Sign isn't lit up at night. For top spots to view the Sign, check out the Hollywood Sign Trust with their live webcams. Enjoy the view!

Buying tickets online allows you to select the show you want in advance. The guided tour requires knowledge of popular movies, which sounds interesting, but we went there for our friends, and we got to take pictures of all the famous scenes, so it was worth it!

In the first hour, the tour guide drove around the set and explained a lot about the behind-the-scenes of TV and movies. It was a rare experience! After that, you can visit and take pictures as much as you want during the free time. There are many interactive devices in the coffee shop of the Six People, the costumes of Batman from different generations, the Batmobile, Harry Potter..., so you can understand the details of making a movie. We actually stayed there for 4 hours! It is very convenient to buy tickets in advance through the platform. You can directly scan the QR code to enter the venue. You don’t have to follow the appointment time because the tour can start at any time. It is recommended for people who are going to LA to take this trip

The reporting point has changed to 6609 Sunset Blvd when I visited in May 2025. The tour brings us to a few places of interest including Santa Monica Beach, Original Farmers Market and Griffith Observatory. Our bus guide knows where are some of the places to get good food in LA.

Allows you to comfortably visit the must-see places in Los Angeles. Be careful, however, about the opening times. Visiting celebrity homes is not a must.

In the first hour of the trip, the tour guide will drive you around the entire set, introducing which works these scenes have appeared in. The process is very interesting and you will learn a lot! Finally, you will come to Stage 48 for free activities. There are many sets for you to take pictures, and there are also many souvenirs. Fans of Friends, Big Bang Theory, or Harry Potter will go crazy :D It is a great experience!

The tour guide was very friendly and explained the tour carefully. He would not rush the itinerary or return early due to time factors. I would like to book a different route again.
