Choose from Three Options

The Chocolate Indulgence tour offers guests at least six decadent tastings at local chocolatiers. Entertainment journalist Sandro Monetti leads the Celebrity Insider tour, sharing his behind-the-scenes experiences with A-listers and highlighting the more than 40 filming locations of movies such as Argo, Pretty Woman, and that one where Humphrey Bogart amasses a hill-shaped stockpile of beans. During the Hollywood Sites and Bites tour, which initially involves some walking, guests head to the Melrose area and down the Sunset Strip for six culinary tastings and glimpses of landmarks such as the Viper Room and the Capitol Records building.

The Chocolate Indulgence tour departs from the Original Farmers Market; the other two tours leave from the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. Patrons should arrive 15 minutes prior to the scheduled departure time.

Tourific Escapes

Tourific Escapes is ranked the No. 1 Los Angeles activity on TripAdvisor, thanks to the contagious joie de vivre of husband-and-wife team Trish Procetto and Matt Rubenstein. Procetto, a certified tour director who has worked as a crew member with several major cruise lines, and Rubenstein, a commercial pilot who has traveled all over the world, decided to create Tourific Escapes to celebrate the food and glamour of their native Los Angeles.

The pair recently combined forces with celebrity biographer and industry expert Sandro Monetti, who leads their Celebrity Insider tour. Monetti regales patrons with stories about various movie-filming locations and famous Hollywood stars, answering questions such as "What's Ben Affleck really like?" or "Why won't George Clooney return my calls?"

The Groupon Guide to: Farm Animals

The act of taking care of farm animals is called “husbandry” because of the old saying “You think taking care of pigs is hard—try taking care of my husband!” Here’s a guide to the animals you can expect to find on your local farm:

Cows: Cows are one of the ugliest animals to look at, but in a national taste test they were found to have the best-tasting milk. Visit a local farm to taste the milk of these horrific beasts for yourself.

Horses: Horses are the supermodels of the animal world. Farmers will spend hours at a time grooming and complimenting a prized horse, just to see a flash of its big, toothy smile.

Pigs: Don’t even get a farmer talking about these fun lovers. Pigs are the party animals of the barnyard, and if you don’t believe it, just hold a yummy treat above their snouts and watch them dance!

Dog: Every barnyard has to have a dog. A dog is a farmer’s best friend and will stand by him through everything, even during the farmer’s loneliest days, when he realizes that in cultivating his farm he has lost sight of that which he should have been cultivating most—relationships with humans.

In a national taste test one farm animal was found to have the best-tasting milk—you’ll be surprised by the ugly answer!
