Elsewhere in LA: Tour Downtown with Free Podcasts

I had thought about something like this, but never got around to doing it. Good to know that someone else has got the city in its sights! I will be heading over to check out these podcast tours as soon as I can.

Tour Downtown with Free Podcasts

Lace up those tennies and grab that trusty iPod! Our good friends over at Metro and LADOT in conjunction with the Confederation of Downtown Assoc. are now offering free podcast tours of downtown L.A. through the program Downtown LA Walks.

Downtown LA Walks describes itself as an urban “way-finder”, and was designed to help people navigate their way around via new signage noting landmarks, and historical facts.

The fun and informative podcasts offer several tours; Art & Culture, Shopping, Historic and also an International tour which explores the areas international highlights. Each tour also comes with a downloadable map.

This innovative way of exploring downtown is a good way to make lots of new discoveries for both long-time Angelenos & visitors alike.
