LA has a fascinating history and architectural legacy. Our tour guide was knowledgable and articulate about both.
Los Angeles is always changing and you’ll witness it on our Central Downtown LA tour. Thought LA doesn’t have a downtown? It does and it’s the most dynamic, interesting part of the city. Many tourists don't know of DTLA (as it’s known here), but Angelenos do and they’re voting with their feet, as every week new restaurants, bars, Apple stores and apartment blocks open here. Many people don’t realize it’s also the best-preserved historic downtown of any major city in America (with great architecture). Join our Central Downtown LA tour and learn about the neighborhood where the city was born. We also stop for lunch at Grand Central Market (one of the best places in the U.S. for food according to Bon Appetit). * Tour starts 1pm daily * Children under 12 y.o. gain free entry * There’s a big range of food options and all types of diet can be accommodated (vegan, gluten-free etc)
Departure Point
- The guide will be checking in guests from 15 minutes before the tour begins at the entrance to Civic Center Metro Station in GRAND PARK (222 N Hill Street). We CANNOT wait for latecomers, there are other guests.
Return Details
- Tour ends at the 7th Street Metro Center station. There are tons of museums, shops, bars and restaurants in the area. It's a 20 minute walk back to the starting point.

We did the Downtown LA walking tour with Damien. We saw and learned a lot and Damien took us to places that we wouldn't have seen if we were on our own - the library, the Biltmore Hotel to name a couple. We stopped for Lunch at Grand Central Market. Damien recommended Maccheroni Republic for dinner which was excellent! Highly recommend.

Damian did a great job. Our 8-year old described it as being like in a museum but on the outside. Highly recommended!

Our tour guy Sonya was delightful and very knowledgeable. We had a great time and would highly recommend this tour. We stopped at the grand market for lunch and the food was good.

Damien was a wonderful tour guide! We did the Central Downtown LA tour, and we were able to see many of the prominent spots in downtown. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of downtown and Los Angeles in general. My favorite stops were Bunker Hill, Angel's Flight, the Jewelry District, Grand Central Market, and The Intercontinental. Would highly recommend doing this tour if you want to learn about downtown LA and see some awesome spots :)
