Description
Discover one of LA’s best-kept secrets and see the real Hollywood on this in-app audio tour available on your smartphone. See where iconic movies were shot, such as The Wizard of Oz and Star Trek.
Immerse yourself in Hollywood history, from the golden age up to the modern day with a smartphone app tour of Culver City. Hear about America’s most influential stars and see where Gone With the Wind, The Wizard of Oz, Terminator, A Few Good Men, Star Trek, and 20,000 other screen titles were shot.
Begin next to the Culver Hotel and hear the story of the visionary developer after whom this suburb is named, Harry Culver. Wind your way through the downtown area, past Culver City Studios and the Actors Gang Theatre in Media Park.
Follow your in-app GPS guide to all the major sights with ease. Get unlimited use from the moment of booking and enjoy the freedom to pause and restart the tour when you like, allowing you to make detours, stop for pictures, and take breaks.
See the intersection where Laurel and Hardy shot their 1927 short film "Hats Off" and scout out local watering holes like the "Seventy 7 Speakeasy" and the "Backstage Bar," where stars still sneak off for some lunchtime liquor and a moment of respite from demanding directors.
Along the way, stop at the famous MGM/SONY Pictures' front gate, which stars like Marilyn Monroe, Brad Pitt, and Leonardo DiCaprio drove through on their way to work. Learn about the careers, private lives, and – at times – illegal activities of many other film greats, both on and off the screen.
