A Truly Haunting Experience
Brilliant! I've been living in LA for more than 23 years, but I learned so much I didn't know about so many of Hollywood's fascinating (and tragic) history. And the plot was based on actual events and people - and genuinely heartbreaking. Bravo agian, Questo!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the brilliant review! I am thrilled that we could share some new and fascinating pieces of Hollywood's history with you, even after living in LA for 23 years. I'm glad the heartbreaking plot and true events resonated with you so deeply. We hope you will explore another city with Questo soon!

Ghostly Fun in Hollywood
I got to see all the famous Hollywood sights and play a fun and challenging game. It was a great time with just the right amount of spookiness!
Response from the operator: We are happy to know that you had a great experience. Thanks for your review. Please share Questo to your family and friends. :)

Skeptical
We did have fun, we get enjoy Hollywood on our vacation. This game took quite a while almost 4 hours. Also ends in a weird location. Although the story was really cool. We kept doubting the game wasn't updated enough. It was! Every time! Lots of work.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for sharing your experience. We are happy to see that you had a great time playing Ghosts of Hollywood: Haunting Stories Exploration Game. Would love to see you playing more games with us soon.

Clues need an update!
The concept is spot on but the execution needs work. The clues definitely need an update. We didn't finish the game and had to contact support several times. I wish I could've got my money back.
Response from the operator: We would like to apologize for your negative experience and would like to thank you for providing your feedback and rest assured we will take a look on this and will give you an update. We look forward to seeing you play a new game with us.

Fun and a bit spooky!
Great way to see LA from a different perspective. Probably works best at nighttime, thus saving you the walking under the summer’s scorching sun!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review, Callum. We love to see you had a great time playing with us, and can't wait to see you explore more games soon.

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hollywood Ghost Hunt: Marilyn Monroe Mystery Walk: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Los Angeles.
How much does Hollywood Ghost Hunt: Marilyn Monroe Mystery Walk cost?
+
Prices start at $7 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Los Angeles usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hollywood Ghost Hunt: Marilyn Monroe Mystery Walk take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Los Angeles is not rushed.
Is Hollywood Ghost Hunt: Marilyn Monroe Mystery Walk worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Los Angeles, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hollywood Ghost Hunt: Marilyn Monroe Mystery Walk?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Hollywood Ghost Hunt: Marilyn Monroe Mystery Walk suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hollywood Ghost Hunt: Marilyn Monroe Mystery Walk?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Los Angeles can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Los Angeles and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hollywood Ghost Hunt: Marilyn Monroe Mystery Walk start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Los Angeles within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Los Angeles?
+
Los Angeles rewards travellers who cluster their bookings by geography rather than by theme. Studio tours and Hollywood walks sit inland, the Malibu and Santa Monica coast runs west, and Griffith Observatory and the canyon hikes work best at dawn or dusk. We weight transport clarity in the ranking here: whether pickup is included changes an LA day more than the tour itself. On Outty we rank every Los Angeles experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hollywood Sign 2.5-Hour Tour with Comedians and Their Dogs, Los Angeles Hollywood Sign Hike: Front, Behind, and Expert Guide, Los Angeles Original 90-Minute Walking Tour to The Hollywood Sign. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Los Angeles?
+
March to May and September to November, for clear air and open canyon roads. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Los Angeles?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
