Booking Terms
Last updated 30 July 2026
These are the practical terms of booking a tour with us — what you pay, what's
included, and what we each need to do on the day. They reflect what we already promise at
checkout and on our tour pages.
Booking and payment
- Payment is by credit or debit card at the time of booking. Your seats aren't held until
payment completes.
- All prices are in US dollars and include tax. There are
no booking fees.
- Fares vary by day of the week and by whether you choose hotel pickup or a meeting point.
The price shown at checkout is the price charged.
- Your booking is confirmed on screen with a booking number the moment payment succeeds.
Cancellations and changes
Free cancellation and changes up to 24 hours before departure. See the full
Cancellation & Changes policy.
Pickups and meeting points
- Hotel pickup is available from around 200 hotels in the LA area and around
100 in the Anaheim area. Your hotel must be on our pickup list — you can check it on
our hotel pickup page.
- We text your exact pickup time the evening before. Please be in the lobby
five minutes early.
- Meeting points: Santa Monica, 1537 2nd St. — arrive by 9:30 AM
for the 9:45 AM departure. Hollywood, 7005 Hollywood Blvd — 8:00 AM pickup.
From Anaheim we depart Anaheim GardenWalk at 7:30 AM.
- Drop-off back at your hotel is included for nearly all pickup locations. For a small number
we'll either drop you at the end of the tour or provide a ride-share voucher back —
we'll tell you the day before if that applies to you.
- We can't collect from inside LAX terminals. Most LAX-area hotels run a free airport shuttle,
and we pick up from many of them.
What's included
- A full-day guided tour with a live guide, narrated throughout, and bottled water.
- A one-hour lunch stop is built into the day. Food and drinks aren't included
— you choose and pay for your own.
- Attraction entry is not included unless we say so on the tour page.
Guests, children and infants
- Children 3–12 book at the child rate. Infants 2 and under are free,
but every guest — infants included — needs their own reserved seat, so please add
them when you book.
- Carseats and boosters are provided free on request.
- Anyone under 18 must travel with a responsible adult.
Luggage
Please bring a personal item only — a day bag or backpack. There's no room on board for
suitcases; most hotels will store luggage at the bell desk.
Accessibility and service animals
Pets can't travel on the tour bus. Properly trained service animals needed for a disability are
always welcome — a heads-up call helps us seat you comfortably. If you have access needs,
call us on (310) 340-0933 and we'll talk through the options.
On the day
- Please be back at the bus at the time your guide gives you. Your guide
announces a return time at every stop. If your party isn't back, the bus will continue
without you — we can't hold a whole tour for one group, and getting to the next stop to
rejoin is your responsibility. Call us on (310) 340-0933
right away and we'll do what we can to help you catch up.
- Stop times and route order can vary with traffic, weather, and conditions on the day. Griffith
Observatory's building is closed Mondays; the park, the views and the Hollywood Sign stop run
as normal.
- Please follow your guide's safety instructions. We may decline service to anyone whose
behaviour puts other guests or crew at risk, without refund.
- Smoking, vaping and alcohol are not permitted on board.
Photography
We sometimes take photos on tour for our website and social media. Tell your guide if you'd
rather not appear and we'll respect that.
Privacy
How we handle your information is set out in our Privacy Policy.
