This tour is for those who don't want the standard Hollywood tour. Instead of celebrities, we focus on history and culture, and also on film as an industry and an artform. Because of this, you'll get a different perspective on the area, on the film industry, and on movies in general. I love movies and pretty much everything about them, and my goal is to share that love and passion with you.
