Join our expert guides as we take you through the hills of Hollywood and ascend the mountain range to the Hollywood Sign. Enjoy the views of Hollywood, Downtown LA, Burbank and especially the World Famous Sign, all without getting lost in the confusing canyons.
The hike is a difficult 6 miles roundtrip and is comparable to climbing a 45 story building. IT'S HARD! But definitely an experience that's worth it!
There are no restrooms located near the beginning and end of hike. You will need to make accommodations before the hike.
It's our most difficult offering. It's strenuous requiring propers attire, for warm Los Angeles weather. Hats, sunscreen and light clothing are highly recommended. Sturdy shoes are REQUIRED (closed toes, worn & comfortable)
It is important to arrive at the tour starting location at least 10-15 minutes prior to the start time, as we do start the tour promptly. It would be unfair for the others if we need to wait for those that are late. We cannot guarantee you’ll be able to find your tour group if you are late.
You can cancel a tour up to 48 hours prior to your tour date without penalty and receive a full refund. Also prior to 48 hours of your tour date, you can reschedule your tour without penalty. Tour spots are limited.
We only cancel the tour during extreme weather conditions. Otherwise the tour goes on. Please check the weather report and be prepared.
Tips are always appreciated by our guides, but never expected. They should be given if you believe your guide did an outstanding job, and further, if you as an individual want to demonstrate your appreciation to the guide for that job well done.
