How it works
- 1. Start in Hollywood. Begin at Hollywood Walk of Fame & TCL Chinese Theatre and head west into the hills.
- 2. Follow the loop. We've ordered the stops into one smooth drive through Beverly Hills, Holmby Hills, Bel-Air, and Brentwood.
- 3. Circle back. The route returns you to where you started — easy in, easy out.
Please be respectful: these are real homes and neighborhoods. View only from public streets, keep the noise down, don't block driveways, and never trespass. Locations are approximate, drive-by points compiled from public sources.
