Detailed Directions
Traffic in Los Angeles is extremely unpredictable. If your GPS tells you it's a 20-minute trip - do not believe it. Allow enough time to arrive early - there are several restaurants and coffee shops in the area. There is also sightseeing in the area (Grauman's Chinese Theater, Kodak Theater) as well.

Remember: It is your responsibility to show up on time as the tour departs on time - as a courtesy to others. Again, please allow more than enough time for your journey.

You are welcome to bring drinks on the tour - but no food.

There will be one restroom break at the tour's halfway point.
