We were delighted with the tour of Chinatown & Little Tokyo. It was the BEST tour of our trip to LA. Chris, especially, was an excellent guide. We highly recommend this tour.

Robert was an excellent tour guide. Very informative. He was patient and took time to explain the history at each stop.

We did a tour a few weeks ago. The guide was great. However the tour starts too early to see Chinatown in action. Everything was closed. We saw some interesting film location spots then we took the train to Little Tokyo. Some history of the area but mainly a walk through the shops. You could however walk these areas on your own.

We were very fortunate to pick a Saturday (fewer people in the city) and to be the only members of the party. Robert presented a fascinating perspective of the Chinese and Japanese impact on the development of LA and how both communities continue to interact with the city. Because you have to travel between the two locations by subway, you would be well-advised to purchase a TAP card before the tour begins. If you are only going to use it once you can purchase a single trip card for a few dollars.
