ABOUT US

Red Line Tours is Los Angeles' first, and only, daily operating walking tour company. We have Tour Centers located in the heart of Hollywood and in Downtown Los Angeles and focus primarily on these two culturally and historically rich districts within the city.

Our tours are special in two ways. We use a listening system called Live-Audio and we go inside landmarks not normally accessible to the public. Below you will find descriptions on both of the these very important elements.

Live-Audio

We use a "Live-Audio" system on all our tours - they're not pre-recorded. The system, provided by Williams Sound helps our customers hear better. You will be fitted with an audio headset so that your guide can speak to you over a headset microphone. This will allow you to hear above extreme city noise such as traffic, construction noise, etc. The system allows you to absorb the surroundings without having to concentrate on the guide as he or she speaks.

We go inside...

Our tours don't just brush the surface we actually take you inside the landmarks! Through special cooperative agreements we have gained access to many of the landmarks in Hollywood and Downtown Los Angeles.

On our "Inside Historic Hollywood" tour we visit the El Capitan Theatre (Disney's premiere theatre), Grauman's Egyptian Theater, the Blossom Room (home to the first Academy Awards ceremony) and a real Hollywood speakeasy.

On our "Inside Historic Downtown LA" tour we visit the inside of the Bradbury Building, Grand Central Market, Title Guaranty Building, Edison Building, Central Library, and the Warner Bros. Theatre.

Perfect Timing

Typically walking tours are 2 hours or more in length. Our tours are within 1-1/4 hours of "leisure walking" making them a perfect length to fit into your busy schedule. The length of our tours also make them just right for seniors. Our "Inside Historic Hollywood" tour covers only three blocks and provides opportunities for less active groups to sit.
