“Props to Jackson for guiding a large group through the crowded, beautiful streets of Edinburgh! He was very energetic, took care to keep our group together, and had lots of fun facts and stories about Harry Potter and J.K. Rowling to entertain novice and expert Harry Potter fans alike. Our tour group was quite large and included adults and kids, but the drinks at the end was a smaller group and a fun way to relax at the end of walking those Edinburgh hills.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 2 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $69

Review of LA’s TMZ Hollywood Nightlife Bar and Club Tour, with onboard DJ, open-air bus, bar stops, pricing, tips, and who should book.

“This was a great time. Be sure that if you come out during the winter months you wear a jacket as it gets pretty cold 🥶 there are no windows as it’s an open bus. They do not have a bartender on deck and they should like most tour buses do. Bring energy and the ability to interact with others so that you are remembered and don’t get left at a bar. They did a good job of finding us 😩🤭😆. We went to quite a few bars. They should try some different bars. Some bars had attendees who were not so happy to see us there. A little uncomfortable…”
