The AR Tours difference

Explore LA without the stress of driving yourself.

Navigating an unfamiliar city with children, luggage and a full itinerary is exhausting. AR Tours takes it off your plate. One professional driver who knows the roads, the timing and the shortcuts.

✕ Renting or rideshare

  • ✕A different driver and a different car for every single trip.
  • ✕You navigate, park and pay tolls in a city you don't know.
  • ✕No easy option for luggage between hotel checkout and check-in.
  • ✕No local insight into where to go, or when.

✓ With AR Tours

  • ✓One dedicated driver for your whole stay, a familiar face who knows your names and your plan.
  • ✓Completely flexible. Early starts, midday changes or shorter days when the children need them. We adapt to you.
  • ✓Luggage handled. We store your bags between hotels and have them waiting at your next one.
  • ✓Local expertise included. The best routes, the beaches worth your time and the food spots you won't find in a guidebook.

FAQ

Questions people usually ask.

How far ahead should I book?

As early as possible, particularly for peak summer months and school holidays. That said, Adrian takes bookings right up until arrival where availability allows. Send a message with your dates and he'll let you know straight away.

How does payment work?

Payment is arranged directly with Adrian. Most clients pay in cash (USD) at the end of each day, though other arrangements can be discussed when you enquire. There are no deposits required upfront.

What type of vehicle is it?

Adrian operates a comfortable, spacious private vehicle, well suited to families with luggage, prams and gear. Full details on the vehicle are shared when you enquire.

Can you do shorter trips or half-days?

Yes, on a case-by-case basis. If you only need a few hours (an airport pickup, a half-day excursion, or a single transfer), just ask. Adrian will work out a fair rate for shorter bookings.

What if our plans change on the day?

That's the whole point of a private driver. Want to extend the day, cut it short, or go somewhere completely different? Adrian adapts. There's no rigid schedule to stick to. You're in charge.

Do you go beyond central Los Angeles?

Yes, AR Tours covers all of greater LA, including Anaheim (Disneyland), Malibu, Calabasas, Santa Monica and beyond. Just include where you'd like to go in your first message.

What our travelers say

★★★★★
"We spent weeks going back and forth on whether to hire a car or just Uber our way around. Glad we did neither. We found Adrian instead, and honestly he made the trip."

He was helping us before we'd given him a cent. He went through our whole itinerary from Australia and told us what would work. Then he drove us for ten days and whatever we wanted to do, he made it happen. Between hotels he held all our luggage in the van and it turned up at the next hotel with us. By the end he felt like one of the family. If you're going to LA, message him before you lock your plans in. He'll make them better.

My wife and I decided to do a one day tour since we had a one day and a half layover on a connecting flight out of LAX. Adrian was simply amazing. He was kind, accommodating, patient and understanding. We did not feel rushed at any point and he offered recommendations of where to go since we did not know much about LA. He also gave good conversation throughout the trip, talking about the different areas of the city and everyday life there. Adrian knows how to speak English and Spanish and drives a newer white Mercedes sedan, comfortable and in very good shape. If you are looking for a quick run down around LA and you don't know what to do, think no more and contact Adrian!

We used AR Tours for a one day trip to Disney, amazing service. Communication was great prior to the trip, Adrian's wife took us to Disney and was so lovely. Adrian then picked us up at our chosen time so we didn't have to rush — again communication was amazing! Adrian chatted to us the whole way, felt like we were just getting picked up by a friend, so friendly and chatty. We also used AR Tours for our airport drop off which was hassle free, dropped off straight outside the terminal! Would definitely recommend to anyone. Such a lovely couple who know a lot about the city. Thank you so much guys! X

We booked airport transfers and a day tour of L.A with AR Tours and to put it simply our experience was exceptional! Adrian went above and beyond to see our needs were met, his communication throughout was incredible and the tour was spectacular, taking in the breathtaking sights of L.A with highly informative details from Adrian. I absolutely recommend to anyone looking to see the sights of L.A or looking for prompt, punctual and comfortable airport transfers. Thank you Adrian for the best experience possible.
