Los Angeles City Tour
Have you always dreamed of traveling along one of the most famous streets of Los Angeles? You can do this when you order a sightseeing tour.
Los Angeles City Tour
Los Angeles is not just a city. It’s a myth, a dream, an endless open-air movie. It is both known and unknown: it appears on screens, in songs, in photographs — and yet it remains unpredictable, multifaceted, full of contrasts.
Arriving here for the first time, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed: Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Venice Beach, the Getty Center, Griffith Park, skyscrapers and the ocean — how do you choose from such abundance? The answer is simple: start with a city tour from American Butler, where every turn of the road is a story, every house a movie set, and every guide’s tale feels like a scene from a film
Los Angeles boasts over 300 museums — more than any other global capital!
Where Silver Screen Legends Meet Urban Grit
Back in 1781, on the site of what is now Los Angeles, there stood a tiny Spanish mission. The city's original name was El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles de Porciúncula — or more simply, "The Town of Our Lady the Queen of Angels". It was a quiet, nearly forgotten corner of a vast Spanish colony.
Over time, the settlement grew with farms, vineyards, and markets. But everything changed with the arrival of the Gold Rush and the construction of the railroad. A wave of migration began, especially from Mexico, China, and Europe. The city was literally bubbling with new cultures, languages, and traditions.
A City of Contrasts and Cultures
Today, Los Angeles is a true kaleidoscope of world cultures:
- In one neighborhood, you can try authentic tacos made from a grandmother’s recipe from Jalisco.
- Just a few blocks away — step into Koreatown, where the nightlife and street food rival that of Seoul.
- And slightly east — the Armenian quarter, with baklava, kebabs, and family-run bakeries.
Here, Christian churches stand alongside Buddhist temples, skyscrapers reflect in Echo Park Lake, and residential neighborhoods smoothly transition into hilltop villas in Beverly Hills.
Where Hollywood Dreams Come Alive
Los Angeles didn’t just become the birthplace of cinema — it became a cinematic character itself.
Here began the careers of Marilyn Monroe — a former factory worker discovered in a hair salon, Charlie Chaplin — a British immigrant with a sharp sense of humor, and Walt Disney — an artist who dreamed of a fairy tale and built an empire.
Later, the city became the cradle of new stars:
- Quentin Tarantino, who filmed the first scenes of "Pulp Fiction" in a parking lot on Sunset Boulevard.
- Lana Del Rey, whose lyrics seem written on LA’s nighttime streets — filled with melancholy, neon, and romantic decay.
Los Angeles doesn’t just create stars — it absorbs their energy and weaves them into its urban mythology. Here, every corner could be a film set, every diner a place of first meetings between future legends.

After a long day, slip into the 1920s at The Varnish. This speakeasy is hidden behind a door in the back of Cole’s diner. Ideal for winding down: jazz, warm lighting, and perfect cocktails. No loud music — just conversations and masterful bartenders.
