Drive the Back to the Future DeLorean in Los Angeles

Sit behind the wheel of cinema's most legendary car and visit the actual filming locations.

A two-hour Los Angeles tour where you drive or ride in the original DeLorean Time Machine from Back to the Future, visiting the Burger King from the film, Marty's house in Arleta, and the homes of George, Biff and Lorraine in South Pasadena. You're the only tour operator in the city that lets guests drive this vehicle on the streets.

The experience

The DeLorean isn't just a prop. It's the actual car from the film, and this tour puts you in the driver's seat. With a valid driver's license and insurance, you can take control and cruise through Los Angeles and its suburbs exactly as Marty McFly did. If you'd rather ride as a passenger, that's an option too. Either way, you'll spend two hours moving through real filming locations, not replicas or themed sets.

The route hits the Burger King where the iconic clock tower scene was filmed, then heads to Arleta to photograph Marty's house: the actual residence used during production. From there, you'll move through South Pasadena to see George's, Biff's and Lorraine's houses, each one recognizable from the film. You'll have time to stop and shoot photos and video at each location. Movie props like a hover board, RCV camcorder, remote control and almanac come along for the ride, letting you recreate scenes or just hold a piece of the film's world.

Pickup is included, and the tour times can be adjusted to fit your schedule. The two-hour window is tight enough to keep the experience focused but long enough to move between neighborhoods and linger at the stops that matter to fans.
