Celebrity Sightseeing

Instead of waiting for the stars to come out, why not try to catch a glimpse of them while they're at home? Los Angeles has a number of tours that whisk you around celebrity-inhabited 'hoods like Beverly Hills, Bel Air, and the Sunset Strip.

Starline Tours (http://www.starlinetours.com) offers the Movie Stars Homes Tour, where you can view mansions owned by some of the most famous celebrities, including Tom Cruise, Madonna, Angelina Jolie, and others. You'll even pass by former estates owned by Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, Judy Garland, and more.

If you'd rather work up a sweat and get a ground perspective of Beverly Hills, Off 'N' Running Tours take groups on a four to six mile jog, while covering celebrity homes and more. Courses are designed for runners of all levels.

For VIP treatment and an unforgettable experience, lift off with Celebrity Helicopter Tours (http://www.celebheli.com). On the Celebrity Homes Helicopter Tour, you'll take in spectacular aerial views of magnificent estates, ranches, castles, and even the Playboy Mansion.
