Los Angeles County is filled with historic gems. From neighborhoods to buildings, from modern architecture to the Art Deco style; it's all here and waiting to be discovered. Now is the time to experience historic Los Angeles on a walking tour.

The 2009 tour program encompasses our signature docent-led tours, new audio and print self-guided tours, and a new Tour Partners Program. Please see the pages linked below for more information. We hope to see you on a tour soon!

As one of the most visible and recognizable programs of the Los Angeles Conservancy, the Walking Tour Program is a primary outreach tool to future constituents of the Conservancy and of historic preservation.
Through informative and engaging walking tours, the program strives to:
- Create awareness of the built environment and architectural resources, to encourage a stake-holder ethic across the socio-economic and generational spectrum of Southern California residents.
- Engage interest in the history and future of Los Angeles through interpretation of its historic resources to build a constituency for preservation.
- Promote individual involvement in preservation advocacy, including membership in the Conservancy.
- Inspire current members, volunteers, and supporters of the Conservancy to greater involvement
- Remain affordable, high-quality, and diverse; both in terms of topics covered and delivery methods.
- Serve as a hub for historic preservation education in Los Angeles County.
Major funding for the Los Angeles Conservancy's educational programs is provided by the Kenneth T. and Eileen L. Norris Foundation.
