About this tour

Trade a standard city walk for a mystery to solve on the streets of Los Angeles. This self-guided scavenger hunt turns a historical walking tour into a detective game, inviting you to follow clues and uncover the story behind a silent-film-era murder.

Start at Old Warner Brothers Studio, at 5800 Sunset Blvd., then use your smartphone to play as you make your way along the route. At each historical marker, solve a clue that brings you closer to identifying the murderer of Rex King, a silent film director. The experience takes about 180 minutes, giving you time to explore at your own pace while putting your powers of observation to work. A mobile ticket makes it easy to get started.

Bring a smartphone and a moderate level of fitness for the walking route. Set off on this Los Angeles scavenger hunt and see where the clues lead.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
