The bus was fine, the ticket we had included the TCL theatre and it was closed for tours on the two days we had our bus ticket for so we missed out.

The tours were as expected. I missed one to downtown LA. The explanations were in our spanish native language. Waiting time was kind of high: 30 minutes. Besides all that, is a great way to meet a city
