Las Vegas To Hollywood, Santa Monica & Beverly Hills Vip Day Tour

It's a long trip, but very much worth it. Our driver Tommy was very informative and knowledgeable. Had a great time!

A little disappointed with this experience. I was initially hesitant to book this tour because I had seen a negative review mentioning a last-minute cancellation, but I decided to give it a try because the itinerary fit exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately, the day before the tour, the tour operator contacted me to say that the driver was sick and that they were unable to find a replacement. They offered to reschedule me for Monday, but I was flying home that day, so rescheduling wasn’t an option and I asked them to cancel instead. I can’t say whether the cancellation was truly due to the driver being sick or whether there simply weren’t enough people booked for that day, but either way, the last-minute cancellation was definitely inconvenient. By that point, the other tours I had considered were already booked, so I ended up renting a car and driving to Los Angeles to see Hollywood on my own. I was able to make alternative plans, so the cancellation itself wasn’t the biggest issue for me. What disappointed me more was how the cancellation and refund were handled. The tour operator told me it would take 12 hours for the cancellation to be processed, which I found unusual. I eventually contacted Viator directly, provided screenshots of the text messages confirming that the operator had canceled the tour, and received confirmation of my refund right away. Overall, I’m disappointed with how the situation was handled, particularly because the cancellation happened at the last minute and I had to contact Viator myself to get the refund processed. Based on my experience, I would recommend keeping this possibility in mind when booking, especially if you have limited time in Las Vegas and wouldn’t be able to reschedule.

Transport Mercedes sprinter van with panoramic windows Row 1 has Driver plus one solo seat Row 2 has three seats. Row has 3 seats plus one solo seat Row has four seat seats AC is fine we went in July 2026. The AC is cool but not cold. DVD player is top down so everyone watches the same movies. Itinerary. My original plan was to drive from Vegas to LA and stay in LA for a few days and then I saw this tour. This tour hit the majority of what I wanted anyway. It allows someone to see the main sites of LA such as the Hollywood sign, Walk of Fame, Santa Monica Pier Beverley Hills, Chinese Theatre and our guide even showed us some celebrity houses, including Elvis, Michael Jackson, Tom Cruise, Frank Sinatra etc… Timings We never felt rust at each venue. There is enough time to see the venues I may be would’ve preferred perhaps 20 to 40 minutes longer at Santa Monica Beach but with the time given you see everything you are able to walk up and down the beach, you are able to do souvenir shopping. You are able to grab a snack with the existing time. It still doesn’t feel rust. I just like looking at the ocean Service This included breakfast which was a packaged cinnamon bun with some sunny D drinks it has unlimited water. It also included lunch at In-‘N-Out. Our Driver Tommy was able to share attractions and hotspots as we are driving. This included information about death Valley that you drive through area 51 that you’re able to see different hotels and casinos around the area facts about LA and Santa Monica and Beverly Hills. The small touches were nice Tommy provided hand sanitiser at every re-entry of the van. Tommy‘s driving was also very smooth. Make no mistake. This is a long drive going down there. You make a couple of stops along the way to stretch your legs by a snack. Use the restroom coming back is the same. We arrived back after midnight but this was also due to LA traffic. I went with my wife who often gets carsick and she didn’t get carsick which is a testament to Tommy’s driving. Overall This is a good tour. It is a long day but you only feel tired on the journey back where you can sleep and here is the advantage of this tour we got stuck in traffic for 45 minutes due to a road closure. If you were to self drive this tour you cannot do it in a day you’ll be too tired having to deal with all the traffic all of the headache of Parking worrying about where to go the route to take finding food and all of this is taken care of which is well worth the price. The fact that it includes lunch as well is a useful edition we weren’t rushed for lunch either we were totally take as long as you need and it’s a nice thing not to feel pressured. LA is a very busy city with many parking restrictions. It is nice not to worry about that where you can get dropped off exactly at the entrance to every venue have enough time at each venue and return back to the drop-off point without worrying about parking parking charges or having to deal with the traffic is especially nice when returning to Vegas where someone else does the driving for you and you can just sleep. Because this tour hits the majority of sites in LA it is also worth the money as the alternative is to travel to LA yourself book a hotel room for at least one or possibly two nights and have to hire a car to go to each venue yourself yes you can spend slightly more time at each venue if you do it independently, but you’re talking perhaps an extra 5 to 20 minutes at each venue and the headache of transportation is not worth an extra five minutes of looking at Hollywood side but again we didn’t feel rushed. We thought we had enough time at Hollywood sign and in fact more than enough time at some of the venues.

Our group was very disappointed. We booked the tour days in advance. After we didn’t receive pick up instructions from the tour operator during the timeframe given by Viator, I emailed and called to inform Viator. We were expecting to be picked up for the tour at 5am Thursday morning. Around 9:30 pm Wednesday (the night before scheduled pick up), the tour operator messaged asking if we could go Friday instead of Thursday. Our flight would depart Friday so that was a no. I was stuck Thursday morning trying to understand how our money paid for the tour would be refunded. Viator said that the refund request would be reviewed within 7 days. I called and expressed my concerns with the length of time for a refund review. I received a confirmation email that the refund would be processed within 3-5 business days. Our group was left trying other options to fill our day as we planned to be in Hollywood for the full day, very disappointing.
