I am an L. A. resident and comedian for over twenty years with an unreasonable amount of movie knowledge to answer your questions, test your trivia, and keep the party lively. I'm the founder/exec. producer/writer & host of TheMovieGuys. net (est. 2009), which has been home to all manner of movie-related content - reviews, articles, podcasts, live shows, comedy events, red carpets, movie premieres, Comic-Con hosting and more with over a million views on various platforms, including Apple Podcasts and YouTube. My film reviews and articles have been syndicated all over the web on websites and newsletters, reaching hundreds of thousands of readers. Plus, I've appeared on radio stations and podcasts in D. C. , Chicago, London, Dallas, L. A. and everywhere in between talking movies and am writing my first book based on interviews with over 200 actors, filmmakers and comics from my podcasts - The Movie Showcast, The TMG Interview, Movie Nonsense and The Ford Fiesta. Half the reason your tour will be so unique is that you get to pick what you see and you get to stop and take photos. The other half is me. Los Angeles TCP #: PSG0040705

Overview of your Los Angeles tour

The L. A. South Side Film Locations Tour offers an experience you can't get anywhere else. There are plenty of places to do beach activities, but only in L. A. can you get up close and personal with famous movie sites you've seen for years, perhaps your whole life, but have never stood in front of. . . until now. This tour is a unique experience catered entirely to what you want to see. And we'll get out of the car to take pics! There's no bus, so you won't get lost in the crowd while I spill a script on you. We'll just hit the road to talk movies and soak up iconic filming locations. Plus, the towering skyscrapers of downtown Los Angeles and the charm of beach cities will be on display as we bolt from location to location. And, my promise to you: No Kardashians! Woohoo! I'll pick you up where your cruise ship docks and start showing you around town and bring you back when we're done. You shouldn't have to think - you're on vacation!

Your Los Angeles tour itinerary

I've listed 26 locations we could visit and you pick your top ten spots - those will be guaranteed! No reason for me to pick places from movies you don't like or have never seen, YOU pick the locations and it'll be a greatest hits of just the films you love. Classic locations meet modern hits in this tour of movie filming locations in South Los Angeles cities from Long Beach to Downey to Manhattan Beach. Some examples include: Ferris Bueller's home from FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF Golf 'N' Stuff from THE KARATE KID Mia's Apartment from LA LA LAND The Bradbury Building from BLADE RUNNER, THE ARTIST and (500) DAYS OF SUMMER The Millennium Biltmore Hotel from GHOSTBUSTERS and BEVERLY HILLS COP Plus, Union Station (site of a TON of movies) and more! Your tour ends at the same place it started or any location in Hollywood by your request. It's often good to pick a restaurant or bar so you can dine or have a drink there before or after your tour to continue your immersion in L. A. film history. Let's get weird!
