Griffith Observatory, Hollywood Hills & Walk of Fame Private Tour

A private, chauffeur-guided sweep of LA's most cinematic icons — the Hollywood Sign view from Griffith Observatory, the Walk of Fame, and Grauman's Chinese Theatre — all at your own pace. The quintessential LA bucket list, perfected.

What to expect

Your private guide collects you from the port and whisks you up into the Hollywood Hills, pausing at the Griffith Observatory terrace for the most celebrated panorama in Los Angeles — the Hollywood Sign, the city basin, and the Pacific glittering to the west. Inside the Observatory, a guided tour of the Zeiss telescope and planetarium reveals LA's love affair with the cosmos. The tour continues to the Hollywood Walk of Fame where your guide pinpoints the most storied stars, then to Grauman's Chinese Theatre to press your hands into the cement of legends. Completely private, completely flexible.

Good to know

Griffith Observatory is free to enter; parking can be tight on weekends so a private vehicle is a major advantage. Arrange a 7–8 AM departure from San Pedro to beat midday traffic. Confirm all-aboard time and build in at least 90 minutes of travel buffer for the return to port.
