Highlights

We start at the famed Pantages Theatre. Since the 1930’s the bar there has been used by the actors that graced the stage. Next we visit a rooftop bar.

After that we’ll discover a speakeasy bar that’s hidden in the oldest house in Hollywood, before ending the tour at a glamorous restaurant popular with the biggest stars, from 1919 to today. Over the evening we’ll regale you with stories detailing how this small farming town became the most famous place on earth. Join us on the Hollywood Speakeasy Bar Tour and have the adventure of a nighttime. * Tour starts 6pm, Fridays * Food included * We normally visit 3-4 bars for 20-30 minutes each
