Room just opened up on Saturday's Know Your Downtown L.A. Tour

Gentle reader,

This is a quick note to say that we’ve had some last minute cancellations on tomorrow’s very popular walk Know Your Downtown L.A.: Tunnels To Towers To The Dutch Chocolate Shop, so the tour is no longer sold out.

That means if you have been yearning to see Batchelder’s Arts & Crafts tiled wonderland or a speakeasy wall speckled with 100 year old B-girl chewing gum, to hear about what life on Old Bunker Hill was really like, and to be the first to know about a joyous, breaking Bunker Hill preservation success story, you can.

Just send us an email ASAP at tours@esotouric.com with the number of people in your party, and we’ll get you in, space permitting.

If you’re not free Saturday, this tour will repeat on July 27. Join us, do!

Yours for Los Angeles,

Kim & Richard

Esotouric
