Insider Tips

  • Be on time: This is a guided walking tour that departs promptly at 10:00 AM from the Greek Theatre Box Office, so plan to arrive a few minutes early.
  • Charge your phone: The tour runs through an app on your own smartphone, so bring it fully charged along with headphones or earphones.
  • Wear sturdy shoes: The route includes a hike to the highest point in Griffith Park, so comfortable walking shoes make the climb easier.
  • Plan your parking: Parking near the Greek Theatre fills up fast, especially on weekends, so arrive early or use rideshare to make it to the meeting point on time.
  • Budget for the planetarium separately: The Samuel Oschin Planetarium show is a separate ticket at the venue and is not part of this tour.

  • No food, drinks, smoking or alcohol allowed.
