Important information
How much walking is there?
This tour covers less than a mile at a leisurely pace. If mobility is an issue, please choose our private tour.
Is this tour good for families?
Yes! It’s educational and interactive and intergalactic — all things kids love. If you decide to upgrade for the amazing planetarium show, please note that the show is only available for guests 5 and older. However, our tour is open to all ages.
What is the rescheduling policy?
We understand plans change. We offer a 100% refund or the option to reschedule up to 24 hours prior to your tour start time. Within 24 hours of your tour, we would have incurred hard costs and therefore cannot allow rescheduling or cancellation without costs.
When should I get there?
Plan to show up 15 minutes early. The tour starts promptly, and you may not be able to catch up if you arrive late. Give yourself plenty of extra time to find parking.
What if it rains?
Our tours run rain or shine. If there’s extreme weather and we have to cancel, you’ll get a full refund.
Is Parking Included?
No, it is not included. Parking is limited and costs $10 per hour in the meter so this can get pricey. We suggest using public transit or a rideshare app to get here. Please see our blog for tips on getting to Griffith Observatory.
Are gratuities included?
Tips aren’t included but are always appreciated by our guides. If you think your guide did an outstanding job, a tip is a great way to show that.
Is this tour accessible?
This tour is accessible for strollers and wheelchairs.
Highlights
More information
Griffith Observatory is one of the most popular attractions in LA, but it can be hard to navigate once you’re here. This historic landmark features 67,000 square feet of exhibition space, a public observatory, and a planetarium. How can you experience it all without missing anything? We have the pros here to help!
This small-group tour, designed by some of the observatory’s former employees, will enhance your experience by taking you on a curated journey through space and time. We cover everything from science and history to architecture and movie trivia.
And don’t forget the opportunity to add a show in the world-famous planetarium theater, tickets available for purchase on-site. It’s a 40-minute immersive show with live narration that is truly out of this world. However, this interstellar option is only for ages 5 and older.
