Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, the Walk of Fame and the Hollywood
Sign. You will also see many great but lesser known landmarks such
as the El Capitan Theatre (Disney’s premiere theatre), Grauman’s
Egyptian Theatre (where the movie premiere was born), the Blossom
Room in the Roosevelt Hotel (site of the first Academy Awards
ceremony) and the only fully intact “speakeasy” in Los Angeles.
The unique “live-audio” system allows customers to hear the

microphone transmitter.
This is a walking tour covering a two-block area of Hollywood.
Guests are advised to wear comfortable shoes and clothing.

Laguna Beach Art Walk |

10:00 AM-2:00 PM |

A city that first developed as an artists’ colony in the early 1900s has
now flourished into a city that attracts millions of visitors each year to
its studios, galleries and boutiques.
Set against beautiful scenery and relaxing ocean breezes, a Laguna
art expert takes you on a customized art walk tour explaining the
history of the area, exploring galleries and meeting with Laguna
Beach artists. You are also given an exclusive look into the creative
world of one local artist with a private gallery and studio tour.
The Art Walk tour concludes at Laguna’s Gallery Row where artwork
from all genres and styles is on display and for sale. Explore the
quaint specialty shops and boutiques that offer shopping with an
ocean view. Known as the location where the plein aire art movement
began, it is not unusual to still find an artist perched a top a cliff
painting a scenic Southern California image.
Lunch is not included. Lunch options.
Cost: $50 per person |
