Celebrity & Movie Stars Homes Tours This attraction is about 2hours long, and you go on a tour which takes you around to current and past homes of movie stars and celebrities; in Sunset Strip, Rodeo Drive, Beverly Hills, & Bel Air. Movie Stars Homes Tour that takes you by homes of top stars like Jennifer Aniston, Tom Cruise and Dr. Phil, as well as former homes of super stars like Michael Jackson, Madonna, Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley. You might not actually see a celebrity, but imagine the thrill of seeing their neighborhoods, the streets that they drive on and the house that they call home. These tours are far better than buying a worthless "map of the movie star homes" and driving around in a rented car looking for those locations. Those maps can be quite outdated. Instead, take a Movie Stars Homes Tour driven by a professional who already knows where to go. They'll give you the scoop on the REAL homes of the stars.
