Additional Information

Begin your adventure at the Authentic Farmers Market and enjoy a quick bite before we take you on a travel experience highlighting two of LA’s premier points of interest! The Getty boasts paintings pre-dating the 20th century, ornamental artistry and a meticulously maintained garden. It also has breathtaking city and coast views. Griffith Observatory, a big name in the LA cinema scene, houses 3 levels of displays, a planetarium, and commanding views of the Hollywood Sign! With the gap between these landmarks, the city’s traffic and the parking hassle, is it even plausible to enjoy both in a day? Luckily, we have professionals to manage! This excursion was planned by our city guides who are local experts, art connoisseurs and previous Observatory employees. We promise to enrich your journey as we guide you through the worlds of art and space, film facts, history and beyond. The commute to and from will tick off all the must-see places on your check-list. Beverly Hills, Sunset Strip, Hollywood, the Melrose shopping area are major points on our packed schedule!
