The Felix In Hollywood
Tour Company Presents...
“...In A Place Called Hollywood:
A Stroll Through The
First 100 Years Of Tinseltown.”
At Last, Hollywood History Is At Hand...ON FOOT!
They say: Nobody walks in L. A. I say: Nonsense!
Not your ordinary Hollywood tour! It's a live action documentary. Come and enjoy a fascinating exploration of the exact area in Hollywood where it all began. As a walking tour, there are no crowded buses and no fake star's homes blocked by shrubs and walls! We'll stroll back through the decades down the same star line that all the greats did. We'll talk about how Hollywood (the town) happened and why Hollywood (the business) happened here. We'll discover the origins of:
*4 major film companies
*3 radio networks
*3 television networks
*3 record companies
*2 world class recording studios that boast more hit records than any other studios on earth.
*If you are visiting Los Angeles the tour offers a true insider’s look and
a one-of-a-kind introduction to Hollywood.
*For locals the tour provides a fresh and surprising look at familiar terrain.
This is the entertainment industry's 100th year in Hollywood and we'll celebrate it together on the spot it was born!

We’ll walk where they walked and worked
and played!
There are tons of stories, anecdotes, facts, gossip and fun! I've also compiled a wonderful book of photographs to show you what it all looked like.
All of the tours will be intimate (generally no more than 8 people), and they are about 90-minutes or so in duration. There are lots of great restaurants on the tour route so if you want a drink or a bite to eat before or after the tour, there's no need to go any further. Make an afternoon of it. It is a walking tour, so throw on some sunscreen, some comfortable (yet stylish) shoes, grab a camera, and let's go!
**Here's a Thought** Get a group together and combine the tour with a meal at one of the local restaurants for a great Birthday Event!
