Hollywood is a real town with supermarkets, small retail shops and such. Tourists expect to see movie stars on every corner, but the reality is that movie stars living in LA don't go to Hollywood unless there is something going on at a specific venue. West Hollywood has great bistros and restaurants, but Hollywood in general is a big disappointment... More

It's definitely helpful learning the history from someone that actually knows. My family took a food tour with Tourific Escapes, there's driving around, walking around and great food stops along the way. It's the entertainment capital of the world!

Bith me & my friend (bith single mothers) took our 9 & 7 yo old boys to hollywood. We came from anaheim & vegas. DO NOT EXPECT ANYTHING SIMILAR! Hollywood boulevard is the main attraction. The star tour was great. We were told by taxi driver to go downtown for really cheap shopping. It was crazy Cheap. But get yr... More

"Hollywood: is only nice around the one-block area of the Chinese Theater/Hollywood Mall area. The rest of the neighborhood and area is dirty, run-down, and frequented by bums and runaways that ask for money.

My sister and I took this 199.00 tour of hollywood. The driver (Gordon) picked us up right on time. We were in a van that sat about a dozen of us. It was a pleasant ride. He did stop a few times for rr breaks and what not. We did get a bag when we got on the van that... More

I 've lived most of my adult life in Hollywood. Most Southern Californians greet that news with incredulity. Hollywood means drugs, runaway children and hookers. The neighborhood had that. Today, the property is in flux, if not upscale. The recession cooled the building boom. The neighborhood between Hillhurst Avenue and Laurel Canyon lacks hotels. SEATAC has more hotel choice than...
