Vroman’s Bookstore and Esotouric present...
Raymond Chandler's Los Angeles
Saturday, August 4, noon - 6pm
$65.00 per person (plus tax)

Bungalows, crime, Hollywood, blondes, smog and death. This was Raymond Chandler's Los Angeles and now you can take a captivating bus ride through the mean streets that shaped his stories and that in turn shaped his hard-boiled times.

Through published work, private correspondence, screenplays and film adaptations, our tour guides trace Chandler’s search for meaning and his anti-hero Philip Marlowe’s struggle not to be pigeonholed or give anything less than all he has. Passengers will also make a stop at Scoops, the offbeat East Hollywood gelato shop, for a complementary sampling of some of Tai Kim's extraordinary flavors

Enjoy a 6-hour tour of downtown, Hollywood, and surrounding environments like Union Station, the Hotel Van Nuys, Paramount Studio's Gates, and more by calling Customer Service at (626) 449-5320 to register today! This tour is for Vroman’s customers only and will begin and end at Vroman’s main store in Pasadena.
