LA Hood Life Van Tour - Compton & South Central Los Angeles / Hip Hop History Locations and MORE

[@TheDailyWoo]

Instagram - AdamTheWooATW There were a couple occasions where I decided not to edit a few words out simply because in this case it would have changed the mood in the experience . Wanted to give the vibe of the day from a tourist perspective . We departed at 11am and returned at 3:40pm and the cost was $75 .

[@jeffreysmith9235]

TheDailyWoo boy that’s a long trip.

$75 a pop, 6-10 people a run... Pretty good pull, do the math.

[@cknorris3644]

I'll be honest...came here thinking "what a dumb tour idea". Stayed for the whole thing and and was intrigued.

[@SirManfly]

sure was an eye opener for me, living in a much smaller northern city that seems to be mostly white.

I like the guide’s smooth and laid back vibe.

[@kingcorey8438]

A lot of these places are just as iconic as Hollywood and other famous places. Definitely people have got to stop judging and see things for themselves not what people say.

[@teresablais8005]

This was very enjoyable and entertaining. Your tour guide was awesome.

[@mattcolver1]

That seems like a great tour. "Find MLK blvd in any city, get on it and it will take you straight to the ghetto."

[@DuckFart]

not sure if youre being sarcastic but it was a really informative tour and that isnt a false line

[@artistrybymariama8547]

It’s so true 😂

[@austinlawler3739]

It is 100% true, Atlanta, Chicago, LA, and in DC MLK Blvd's. are very much in the ghetto, just to name a few cities.

[@Kimzapoppin]

Sadly, that is true and I have made the same comment. I live in a relatively small city (population about 300,000) and it is the same here.

[@corv989]

He sounds like Arabian Prince from NWA

[@bonniebrown6960]

It's true Expressway I-10 will run from Florida to California. I remember when my son first moved down to Fl. and him and his wife were having their 2nd baby .....my mother and I were trying to find the hospital. We got on expressway I -10 at first . We were lost . LOL!! We just followed the hospital signs that helped us get to the hospital where my grandson was born and we got there just in time . My son told me if we had kept going We'd ended up in California. LOL!! That's how I found out that that expressway would go all the way to California. Thanks Adam the Woo for sharing your video .

[@chalkyblack7582]

Yes it's true

[@phyllisellett8456]

Nice to see you do 'real' America, rather than just 'tourist' vlogs. Keep this idea up, it works.

[@TheDailyWoo]

Kinda a combination in this case because it was a tour but the subject was a little different than the traditional Hollywood versions

[@dallasdandigitalproduction393]

Went on this tour in January , what an amazing insight to how the people of la live ! Also what a great guy think his name was steve , made us feel safe in places we wouldn’t have felt otherwise .

[@jimmysanchez3205]

For those of us that are familiar with those neighborhoods, that guide was very accurate on all his information he was giving.

Wow, that was one serious tour and the tour guide really has been thru some serious stuff. Thanks Adam for an amazing and different vlog.

[@supergrogg]

I'm from L.A. and just to see the houses the N.W.A. guys grew up in was awesome enough let alone the history of each neighborhood. I've been to a couple of those neighborhoods and never knew they had names. Great tour guide and great video! 100 Percent!!

[@Keliimaoli]

I love these types of tours you take around L.A. Adam!. I also cringed pretty hard when Karen asked; "So what gang are you in?"...

i will too !

[@aaphotofilm]

I couldn't stop laughing when I heard that too. thankfully I'm not the only one who spotted that lol

[@JPFilmsFX]

If you listen closely he can be heard responding. I got a feeling he looked around if not literally or maybe indistinctly or even metaphorically making sure no rival gang members were around either after or while he was saying I'm sure he wouldn't have responded if there was.

[@jenniferjohnson2593]

Dang, I WISH I would have met this guy when my husband and I were in LA a couple months back. That was by far the best tour I've ever seen of the "real" LA

[@brokenpines8491]

Very Interesting Adam, I was born and raised in Orange Co and only traveled to LA 2 or 3 times. I did marry a man that worked for Pep Boys and he traveled to Compton area daily for many years. He was a Regional manager there.This was in the 70's and 80's. Around that time, there were people breaking out car windows at stop lights and grabbing purses. The gentleman that does these tours certainly knows the area. After all he has been through I wish him the best. Thank you for taking us along with you!

[@Rickugg]

Hello: Your best video in a while. I'm burnt out on Disney. This made me think of you standing behind the haunted house, you said I think I see someone looking at me. You and I kept looking at that window in the video, I got scared and you got scared. You started running to the ford van. I would take that van tour if in La., I dough I will ever be in La. I am hoping you have more videos of this since it was over 3 hour trip. Rock on dude.

[@odfarmboy]

Much better than a Disney tour.

[@Rickugg]

@@odfarmboy I have watched the Woo going back to Nov. 2011 Abandoned Six flags. I do not watch the Disney videos. I live in Va. so I don't think I will ever be in La. I hope he did more than just 1 video in 4 hour tour. I would hate to be a Police out in the wild west.

[@michellesharon80]

Was one of the tourist on the tour really trying to get involved in the fight? I heard the tour guide go, "No, don't do that!" Crazy if so, you are literally in one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in America, don't even look in the direction of any local fights or activity.

[@TheDailyWoo]

It's a good rule of thumb . Notice how I didn't shift my camera in their direction
