Hollywood Lights Three Day Tour
LA is the place for seeing where your favorite movies were shot. LA can pass for New York, Tokyo, and anywhere in between.
 Day 1 |
- Union Station
Start at downtown LA's Union Station where the spacious concourse has been a backdrop for The Hustler, The Fabulous Baker Boys, Bugsy, Pearl Harbor and The Italian Job.
- Los Angeles City Hall
LA's City Hall goes back to TV's Dragnet and Superman. More recently it has been in The Two Jakes, Die Hard 2, Barton Fink, Speed, Liar Liar, and The Black Dahlia with directors favoring the steps and a full shot of the building.
- The Bradbury Building
The atrium and iron-caged elevator (you can take a ride on it while you are here) has been used in Chinatown, Blade Runner and Wolf.
- The Millennium Biltmore Hotel
The elegant lobby and ballrooms have doubled for grand hotels just about anywhere. A few movies that have been filmed here include: Vertigo, King Kong, New York, New York, The Buddy Holly Story, Ghostbusters, Bugsy and Wedding Crashers.
- Westin Bonaventure Hotel
Seen in Rain Man, In the Line of Fire and Nick of Time.

 Universal Studios Hollywood
Immerse yourself in the movie action with pulse-pounding rides and full-sensory attractions; visit "Revenge of the Mummy–The Ride," and the new mega-attraction based on the blockbuster hit movie and TV series, "The Simpsons." |

| Day 3 |
 Sunset Boulevard
This is a great street to begin your tour of Hollywood. - Musso & Frank
A great lunch spot with Old Hollywood ambiance. You might even be sitting at George Clooney's table from Ocean's Eleven. Scenes from Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle were also filmed here.
- Hollywood & Highland Center
The underground Hollywood & Highland MTA station was used for some of those chase scenes in The Italian Job.
- Grauman's Chinese Theatre
Right next door and the backdrop for Singing in the Rain and Blazing  Saddles.
- Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel
If a movie wasn't filmed at the Biltmore, it was probably filmed here. Another opulent place that can double for the best of them. Movies shot here include Beverly Hills Cop II, The Fabulous Baker Boys, Internal Affairs and Almost Famous.
