My name is Chris, and I'll be your guide to Downtown. I've led tours for KTLA, Spectrum News1, and NHK Japan. There's a chance you've come across my other 5 star experiences, like the Sunset Strip True Crime tour. When you book with me, you're guaranteed to get the tour creator as your guide - not a person reading from a script. This isn't your average walking tour. Over 3 hours, you will dive deep into the history, architecture, and landmarks of Downtown Los Angeles! Our tour starts with a ride on historic Angels Flight. Your ticket for this 1901 train from La La Land and Bosch is included as a part of the experience! You'll see famous LA buildings, like the Walt Disney Concert Hall, Bradbury Building, and City Hall. We will discuss their film history, architects, and styles. From Art Deco to postmodern, there's amazing variety along our walk. We will also visit Little Tokyo for sample from LA's oldest candy store and explore the history of this fascinating part of Los Angeles.

Step into the historic core of Los Angeles and discover how film, architecture, migration, and cultural ambition shaped Downtown’s identity. On this 2.5-hour creator-led walking tour (available in English or French), I guide you through Broadway’s iconic theaters, landmark skyscrapers, and cinematic locations while revealing how design and media influence the way the city is experienced. Drawing on a multicultural background and professional experience in film and media, I approach DTLA as both a physical environment and a constructed stage. Ideal for architects, urban designers, creatives, and intellectually curious travelers, this experience favors insight and conversation over checklist sightseeing—offering a deeper understanding of Los Angeles beyond its surface. Thanks!
