The wax museum itself was larger than I expected, and the content was interesting, especially for movie buffs. From classics to modern films, and from horror to action movie stars, there were exhibits for us to reminisce about. It's an enjoyable attraction where you can easily spend two hours.

This museum is very thoughtfully planned. Since it's Oscar-related, the first exhibit set introduces the newly added casting category award for this year. Of course, it also covers other awards like editing and sound design. There are many different special exhibitions; this time, the special exhibit features Jaws, which they say is their first time focusing on a single film. Learning about the behind-the-scenes stories was very interesting. The production designer for the Barbie set is incredibly talented, and there are many incredibly detailed models of their work inside.

Excellent for those who want to visit many places but don't have the time or a car to drive. It's much more convenient than going by yourself.

The TMZ Celebrity Bus Tour was such a fun and exciting way to experience Los Angeles! The open‑air bus gave us great views of Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and other iconic spots, while the guides kept the energy high with entertaining stories and insider gossip. It felt like a mix of sightseeing and a live show, with plenty of laughs along the way. Booking through Klook made everything simple—instant confirmation, easy check‑in, and hassle‑free entry. The tour was well‑organized, and we even spotted a few familiar faces along the route, which made the experience unforgettable. Highly recommend this ticket for anyone looking to add a bit of Hollywood sparkle to their LA trip!

I had an excellent experience with the Big Bus Hop-On Hop-Off Tour in Los Angeles. The staff were friendly and helpful, and I really liked the routes because they cover many of the places visitors would want to see. The buses took me through Hollywood, Melrose, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, and several other well-known areas, and being able to hop on and off made it easy to explore at my own pace. One tip that made a big difference for me: use the mobile app. You can track the buses and check their estimated arrival and departure times in real time, which saves you from waiting unnecessarily at a stop. I used it throughout the day to plan when to leave each place and catch the next bus. Overall, it was a convenient and enjoyable way to explore different parts of Los Angeles, especially if you want to cover a lot of ground without driving.

An entertaining, open-air cruise past neon-lit landmarks that peaks with stunning sunset and skyline views from the Griffith Observatory—just remember to bring a jacket.

I had such a great time with our tour. Chellsee was our driver/ tour guide. I don't know how she can do multiple tasks at the same time. She was outgoing, fun, and reliable. We had just enough time to see what we needed to see. For a solo traveller, I enjoyed it very much. Thanks so much!
