Itinerary

  1. TCL Chinese Theatres

    5 min Admission not included

    Sid Grauman was a showman who loved to entertain. He had this theater constructed in 1927. As you can tell, he took his presentation seriously, creating one of Hollywood’s most extravagant buildings. He even went to the lengths of gaining the government’s approval to import Chinese materials to complete the project.

    Note: The tour is over 2.5 miles long, with more than 84 audio stories, and takes about 2-3 hours to complete.

    New, Lifetime access, no expiry. Use it anytime, on any trip, as many times as you want.

  2. Dolby Theatre

    5 min Admission not included

    The giant building with ornate pillars is quite the spectacle. Built in 2001, it’s one of Hollywood’s newer buildings. And if you’re a film fan, you’ve probably already seen the inside of it… During the Academy Awards! To hear more about the theater, tap the Learn More stories.

  3. Stop 3

    5 min

    In a world where eateries frequently open and close, this grill has a lot to brag about. As the oldest restaurant in Hollywood, Musso & Frank’s opened in 1919 and has been running strong ever since. You can hear more about it in the Learn More stories.

  4. First National Bank of Hollywood

    5 min

    The 13 stories made this the second tallest building in Los Angeles when it was built in 1928. Tap the Learn More stories to hear more about it.

  5. First National Bank of Hollywood

    5 min

    Everyone had high hopes for this tower. At that time, Hollywood was booming. The architects included grand buttresses and an “Explorers” motif decorating the siding. The beehive carved above the doors symbolized the bustling “beehive of activity” that would occur once it opened. Doctors, talent agents, and financial firms occupied the top office floors, with the bank on the bottom holding it all up. Business sprung up in

  6. Guaranty Building

    5 min

    In 1923, Wilcox’s original church was knocked down to make room for the 150-foot Guaranty Building you see today. It holds the status of being Hollywood’s first high-rise, but it certainly lacks the glamor of its neighbors. That’s because it was constructed as a simple office space. But the folks working here weren’t regular Joes. Charlie Chaplin, Al Jolson, and other actors once had offices in Guaranty!

  7. Hollywood and Vine

    5 min

    This block sits on one of L.A.’s most famous intersections—Hollywood & Vine. Maybe you’ve heard of companies like Capital Records and CBS Studios—they got their start right here!

  8. Pantages Theatre

    5 min Admission not included

    Constructed in 1930, this theatre is titled after the Greek immigrant who dreamed it into reality: Alexander Pantages. It’s a throwback to an age when vaudeville was on the outs and highbrow films enjoyed by the elite were ushered in.

  9. Fonda theatre

    5 min Admission not included

    Look to the left up ahead for the Fonda Theatre. With its expansive marquee, it’s pretty hard to miss! This theater dates back to 1926, though it now functions as a major concert venue!

  10. Stop 10

    5 min Admission not included

    The Egyptian Theatre is ahead on our left, just past the intersection. It’s another of Hollywood’s oldest theaters, dating back to 1922. Tap the Learn More stories to hear more about it.

  11. Stop 11

    10 min

    The story of this hotel begins in the early 1900s with Christie, an auto-parts manufacturer in Michigan. Christie ended up selling his successful car-top company to Henry Ford in search of something new. That journey brought him to Los Angeles as a real estate developer.

  12. The Hollywood Museum

    10 min Admission not included

    At this intersection, we can choose to take a quick detour to the Hollywood Museum. It’ll be on our left, just across Highland Avenue. If you’d like to see some Hollywood memorabilia up close, this is the stop for you!

  13. Madame Tussauds Hollywood

    5 min Admission not included

    If you’ve ever seen celebrities posing with wax versions of themselves, there’s a good chance it took place in this building! But before we get to the wax shop, we need to start with the woman behind it all. You can hear all about her in the Learn More stories.

  14. Stop 14

    15 min

    look for the tall white building on our left. That’s the Hollywood Roosevelt. This hotel may take the cake for hosting Hollywood royalty. Tap the Learn More stories to hear more about it.
