Experience Overview:

Private Full Day Los Angeles Tour With A Historian And Naturalist

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.
