Casual hike with great views
Great tour of a beautiful hiking spot in LA. My girlfriend was supposed to join me but was unable, so I took the tour solo. The guide, Riley, was very good and has a lot of hiking experience. The hike is pretty easy, even for a casual hiker like me. We avoided the West trail, apparently for good reason, and the views were incredible. I came back here with my girlfriend a few days later and played tour guide for her. She enjoyed it as well as she prefers more relaxed hikes like me. My only minor complaint is I thought it was a bit pricey for what the experience was (and relatively short duration). Overall fun experience and would definitely recommend for anyone visiting wanting great views of the surrounding area, downtown LA, and the beautiful homes sprinkled throughout the canyon.
Response from the operator: Dear Bryan, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughtful review. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your Private Runyon Canyon Hiking Tour and that the views of Los Angeles, downtown, and the surrounding canyon area made for such a memorable experience. We are especially happy to know that Riley took great care of you and helped make the hike enjoyable, relaxed, and comfortable. His hiking experience and knowledge of the area are such an important part of creating a safe and enjoyable experience for our guests. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the price and duration. We always want our guests to feel that they received excellent value, and your comments are very helpful as we continue to improve our tours and guest experience. Thank you again for choosing Another Side Tours and for your kind recommendation. We truly appreciate it and hope to welcome you back again soon in San Diego, Los Angeles, or Las Vegas. Warmly, Kenneth C. Lippman President & CEO Another Side Tours, Inc.

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Runyon Canyon Hiking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Los Angeles.
How much does Private Runyon Canyon Hiking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $149 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 Private Runyon Canyon Hiking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Private Runyon Canyon Hiking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 1 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 Private Runyon Canyon Hiking Tour?
+
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 Private Runyon Canyon Hiking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Runyon Canyon Hiking Tour?
+
Around 0 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Runyon Canyon Hiking Tour 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.
