The Best Way To Tour Downtown: Charles Phoenix's "Disneyland Tour of Downtown Los Angeles"



YouTube user ZZalgernOn edited the video above of Charles Phoenix's "Disneyland Tour of Downtown Los Angeles." It sounds like a stretch -- finding downtown's equivalents of Main Street U.S.A., Frontierland, Adventureland, etc. -- but it seems to work.



Phoenix will next thrown his Disneyland Tour of Downtown on May 27. Details here. Here's how he describes it:

"YES, REDISCOVER DOWNTOWN THE WAY I HAVE... IT"S JUST LIKE A THEME PARK!" says your tour guide Charles Phoenix. "In fact, the similarities between Downtown Los Angeles and Disneyland are staggering."

This amazing six-hour school bus and walking tour begins at 12 noon sharp and ends at 6pm at Union Station. Transportaion, souvenirs, museum and show tickets and snacks are all included in the $65.00 ticket price*. (*no-host lunch at Clifton's Cafeteria)

Experience the charm of MAIN STREET USA, exotica of ADVENTURELAND, wilderness of FRONTIERLAND, magic of FANTASYLAND, and future of TOMORROWLAND - in the heart and soul of our city. You will never see downtown Los Angeles the same way again!

Phoenix is best known for his humorous slide shows of 1950s Americana -- particularly his popular annual Christmas show.
