California can be a dizzying place. We’re the world’s fifth largest economy, one of the most biodiverse places on earth, and of course the place Hollywood movie stars call home. With so much going on it can be hard to make sense of it all, but now there’s a better way to explore the city. On this private, full day tour you’ll experience parts of Los Angeles that many locals don’t even know about. We’ll visit iconic filming locations hidden in plain sight, learn about native and exotic wildlife at a secret lakeside park, and discover the people and places that have shaped Southern California. Naturally we’ll visit a lot of fancy houses and well known landmarks too. Your guide is Adam Papagan, a certified California Naturalist, cultural anthropologist, and author of “Behind The Scenes in Los Angeles: A Pop Culture History Tour”. More than just a city tour, this is a chance to visit a Los Angeles that few know. Please message for special accessibility accommodations.

Q&A

Q: Is there a minimum age for kids on this tour? I'm thinking about taking my 10-year-old.

A: There's no strict minimum age for this tour, but it's generally recommended for kids 12 and up since the content can be a bit complex. However, if your 10-year-old has an interest in nature or history, I think they’d have a great time! Just check with the guide to see if they can tailor the experience a bit for younger kids.

Q: What kind of transportation is provided? Do we have to do any walking?

A: You'll get private transportation for the whole day, so no need to worry about parking or public transport! There might be some short walks at various stops, especially at parks or film locations, but most of it is pretty easy-going. Just wear comfy shoes!

Q: What if it rains? Will the tour still happen?

A: They'll usually run the tour rain or shine, but if the weather’s really bad, you can reschedule. Just check-in with Adam the day before to see what the forecast looks like. Bring a light jacket just in case!

Just did the Private Full Day LA Tour - So worth it!

I went on the Private Full Day Los Angeles Tour with Adam a few weeks ago, and wow, what an experience! He took us to these awesome hidden filming locations, and I learned so much about the wildlife that lives in the city. It felt like a mix of a nature hike and a Hollywood history lesson. Also, the secret lakeside park was breathtaking! Definitely recommend this for anyone wanting a unique way to see LA.

Considering this for a gift - Any tips?

I'm thinking about gifting this tour to my parents. They love history and nature, but I’m a little worried about the logistics like parking or how long it actually takes. Has anyone done it? What should I know before booking?
