La City Guide (Globe Trekker) (DVD)

Spend a week with your host Megan in Southern California USA exploring one of the world's most exciting and glamorous cities: Los Angeles. Start your trip by taking a tour around Paramount Studios and explore Beverly Hills while learning the tricks of the paparazzi trade. Next on the list is the now-faded glamour of Broadway's grand old movie palaces and the thriving historic Central Market amidst a newly revitalised city centre. After visiting the L.A. County Coroner's Office to buy amusingly ghoulish souvenirs of murder and mayhem escape the well-trodden tourist track and head into the 'hood. In South Central L.A. discover the unique and quirky Watts Towers before heading on to East L.A. to see a remarkable project which provides employment to ex-gang members. Moving on to the coast work out with bodybuilders at Muscle Beach before heading offshore to the lovely Catalina Island a wonderfully peaceful contrast to the non-stop bustle of the city and a great place to end your journey.
