Fanatical view - Top Hike with Mark - We (family with teenagers) had a wonderful hike with Mark, he introduced us to the impressive area and fascinating history of Griffith in his great way. The walk is worth it - the view over LA is simply breathtaking.

Amazing hiking experience with Noelle! - Our guide, Noelle, was amazing! She is so knowledgeable about all things LA. Her insights and stories made the experience much more memorable than if we had just hiked up on our own. She made our group feel very comfortable with each other and we really enjoyed the fun and friendly conversation along the way. She set us up for some epic photo opps too. Even our two teenage daughters agreed that having Noelle for a guide was definitely worth it!

Great morning hike - Whole family enjoyed the morning hike. Our guide, Katie, was very nice and told lots of interesting stories about the area and the sign. It’s a beautiful place to visit and provides a very nice perspective of the city. Not too hard of a hike, but a nice way to get a nice walk in and learn about the area.

Would give it 6 stars if we could - The hike was brilliant! Amazing views, long enough to feel like a proper hike but utterly achievable. Chris was an excellent guide. He made sure we were all together and stopped frequently on the hills to allow us to take photos and to tell us about LA. A must
