A rite of passage entering LA, a must do! - The tour was amazing. I've been to LA many times over the last 20 yrs but never even been downtown. I feel like now I know the history about LA and how it got it's start. I feel like it's a rite of passage to take this tour if you come to LA as a tourist looking to explore. Paul was a great guide. He's actually an actor that does this on the side and quite an interesting, fun, and very passionate about LA kind of guy. We kicked off learning about the hotels of LA and then went to the most amazing bookstore you could ever imagine. It was so full and expansive tour ending at a really cool food court with every yummy option you can imagine. Thank you!
