Though most Angelinos get around by car, to enjoy the historic architecture of Downtown Los Angeles, you need to slow down, and explore on foot. See the diverse buildings of Downtown LA on this guided walking tour, where you can enjoy examples of beaux arts, Renaissance Revival, and art deco design. Along the way, learn about the city's development from your guide, and see several landmark buildings. The tour group will meet in the hotel lobby and promptly depart at 10:00am. Tour starting point: Los Angeles Central Library (0.4 miles from hotel; 9-minute walk). Tour ending point: James Oviatt Building (0.4 miles from hotel, 8-minute walk).
