My husband and I will be visiting Anaheim for a conference in June. We would like to do a half-day or full day tour of Hollywood - Rodeo Drive, Hollywood sign, Chinese Theatre, Walk of Fame, etc. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good tour company? We thought about just doing it ourselves, but my husband is not keen on the idea of driving around LA ourselves and finding places to park, etc. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
Best tour of Hollywood?Howdy
We were there in November %26#39;06. Done a L.A. tour with Greyline/Coach USA.

As for the driving........not for this kid!
It was awesome, and had a great time. Thw worst part of the whole trip was Hollywood. Soon as we stepped off the bus, we were continually harrassed by various people wanting money. Not my scene sorry, also the place was filthy, though we can say we have been there. Apart from that it was money well spent. L.A. and it%26#39;s surrounds are fantastic, and as are the people.
Best tour of Hollywood?I recommend using starlinetours.com
There are two ways to take their tours. I recommend method #2:
METHOD #1:
Have them pick you up at your hotel in Anaheim
METHOD #2:
Drive to Hollywood and park. Take a tour commencing at Starline%26#39;s main office (in the courtyard of the Chinese Theatre) on Hollywood Bl, 1/2 block west of Highland Avenue.
The advantage to the second method is that:
a. Starline offers many tours of different durations (from 2 hours up to a full day) and only some of these tours have ';hotel pickup service';. So, you%26#39;ll have more choice if you start at their offices and you can take more than tour, if you wish.
b. When your tour(s) is completed, you will have the flexibility of exploring Los Angeles on your own -- maybe even returning to some of the areas you visited on the tour.
c. Or, you can stay ';in town'; and have dinner. The inside of the Chinese Theatre is much more interesting than the outside and few tourists get to see it: why not go to a movie after dinner?

Have fun!
Hi,
We used a tour company called http://www.economytours.net/main.html
Great tour, and we saw all the things you are after,plus more.
Pick up from your hotel, and if there is something you really want to see just ask.
Enjoy.
