Gambling Built the Sunset Strip: A Self-Guided Audio Walking Tour
Take this fascinating self-guided GPS audio tour of LA’s most famous boulevard and learn the crazy stories behind the legends that made the Sunset Strip what it is today. For 80 years the Sunset Strip has sparked modern American culture with behaviors that have now become normal, like dancing to rock music, gambling at casinos, and smoking Marijuana. And while the heat that the Strip generated from its nightlife sparks have spread out across the entire country, the sources of those sparks – the original ignition points that heated the action on the Sunset Strip – all came from gambling. This tour takes you through the Strip's historic transformation.
The tour is ready whenever you are and the audio plays automatically at exactly the right time and place using your smartphone's GPS and the VoiceMap mobile app, which also works offline. This self-guided audio tour can be enjoyed on location or even at home.
