Itinerary

1. Silver Lake

Welcome to Silver Lake! This artistic neighborhood is one of the coolest places you can visit in Los Angeles. Silver Lake is home to celebrities, restaurants, shopping, and some of LA's best hidden street art. This 2 mile walk will take you up and down several hidden stairways in the area. It is a great workout and, along the way, you will see famous locations like the Micheltorena Stairs, which have been dubbed "the most Instagrammed stairs in the world." Throughout the tour, you will learn the fascinating history of this neighborhood and LA as a whole. Learn about William Mulholland and Griffith J. Griffith, their stories may surprise you! As we walk, you will also take tons of pictures! I am happy to be your personal photographer so that you don't miss a shot. And the neighborhood is full of great places for photos. Whether you want to pose with the art or just capture the view, this tour is great for pictures.

Duration: 5 mins

2. Micheltorena Stairs

Start the tour by visiting the most well known and easiest to find stairway. The eye catching rainbow colors and hearts on this mural draw locals and visitors from all over. That is why these stairs have been called "the most Instagrammed stairway in the world!" You'll learn about the origin of the art as illegal vandalism and how it became a landmarked piece of art. You will also hear from the person that maintains the stairs for the community (hint: they may be leading the tour!)

Duration: 10 mins

3. Music Box Steps

What would an LA tour be without a little film history? Our most famous stairs along the rout may not be painted, but they do have an Oscar! We will visit the site of the Laurel and Hardy film 'The Music Box'. I will even show you a short clip from the film and hilarity will ensue.

Duration: 5 mins

4. Silver Lake

After passing the Music Box Steps, we will see a bit of busy Sunset Blvd. You'll get the best tips for which restaurants to eat at and where to shop once the tour is over! This busy stretch of Sunset is dense with award winning restaurants - maybe we will even spot a celebrity trying to remain incognito as they grab a fish taco! From there, we hit another painted stairway!

Duration: 10 mins

5. Murray Stairway

Time to ascend another stairway! This stairway has a little drama behind its creation and the artists involved. That's a story for the tour itself, we wouldn't want to spread gossip online! This beautiful painted stairway has a large piano themed mural on its 90 stairs (almost perfect for the 88 keys found on a standard piano keyboard.) It is a bit of a tough hike to the top, but then we have a nice relaxing walk without stairs for a bit.
