Vinewood Tour

The Vinewood Tour is a pastime available in Grand Theft Auto V operated by Vinewood Star Tours . The tour can be located outside the Wax Museum on Vinewood Blvd although only at certain times of the day. The player can go on the tour by approaching the tour bus and purchasing a ticket for $ 40. The tour lasts fifteen real-life minutes unless the player skips forward to the next location. A female tour guide talks about the area's sordid history (most of her anecdotes involve sexual or drug misadventures) and shows the passengers the local sites including a number of celebrity homes.

About a dozen locations are featured in the tour and during the drive between locations, the tour guide and passengers will make random remarks about Vinewood. One stop of note is the Epsilon Center , and the tour guide will reveal she is a member. She also reveals that she appeared in the film Last Will and Testament , although her line was cut, that she did a lot of 'shameful things' in her youth and that she has a daughter.

During the tour, the player can toggle between first-person or third person view; in third-person view the camera will automatically focus on highlighted locations; the first-person view offers only limited visibility due to the character sitting behind a wall of the bus. The tour ends at the same location from which it starts. Completing the bus tour is not necessary for 100% completion . Due to its length, generally starting the tour during daylight hours means much of the tour will take place after dark.

Gordon Henderson , a retired Vinewood actor, announced his plans to sue Vinewood Star Tours after his home was dropped from the tour. The Los Santos Superior Court, shortly after " The Merryweather Heist ", rule that Vinewood Star Tours must include Henderson's house on the tour.

Los Santos Map

The Tourbus is a cut-away open air version of the in-game Rental Shuttle Bus , and is built by Brute .

There is an in-game "Random Event", available to all three of the characters , which involves paying to ride the Tourbus on a trip around some of the points of interest in Vinewood .

The Tourbus cannot be stolen when it is situated at the Vinewood Tours Random Event location . If you try, the character will move rearward towards the passenger compartment and try to open a locked door there; the character will not interact with the doors in the driver's compartment at the front. The Tourbus can be stolen when it spawns randomly in traffic.

There is a second version of the Tourbus which may randomly spawn in traffic in the areas of Vinewood and Richman. Although it is slightly different from the open-air Tourbus used in the Random Event sightseeing tour, the on-screen text simply identifies it as "Tourbus, Service", same as the original open-air version. The passenger area is not open-air, as with the regular Tourbus, but is fully enclosed, and may contain several NPC passengers. (These passengers will disappear if the game is "Quick Saved" and that Save is then reloaded.)

Both Tourbus variants cannot be driven into in a player's 4-car garage and saved there. Also, they are too tall to fit in Franklin 's original Safehouse garage or in Trevor 's desert trailer home garage. However, they do fit in Michael 's Safehouse garage, although they are just slightly too long to allow the garage door to close normally. This doesn't prevent the Tourbus from being saved. If you leave the area and return later, the garage door will be closed and the Tourbus will be inside. 

The Tourbus will not enter Los Santos Customs or Beeker's Garage, eliminating the possibility of repairing or modding it. Also, the Tourbus can't be driven through a Carwash.

The rear panel of the Tourbus displays the telephone number 1-999-VIN-TOUR. Dialing the number connects you to a continuous loop of recorded music.

The default selection for the radio is "Off" when entering this vehicle .

Performance wise, this thing is an underpowered slug, and it has a very hard time dragging itself up the hills of Vinewood.

Both Tourbus variants:

Bored of sitting around doing nothing on the Los Santos tour? Why not drive the Tour Bus yourself?

GTA 5: Where to find the Tour Bus

The Tour Bus Random Event in GTA 5 is a fun activity where players can learn about the histories and claims-to-fame of landmarks around Los Santos. Despite being a Random Event, players can join the tour daily between 7:00 am and 7:00 pm for just $40.

You’ve probably considered taking the tour bus and driving around Los Santos in the livery-clad bus. We know we have. But where is the Tour Bus in GTA 5 anyway?

In this guide, we will show you where you can find the Tour Bus in GTA 5 and how you can take the vehicle for yourself.

Tour Bus in GTA 5

The Tour Bus has only made two appearances in the Grand Theft Auto franchise so far – once in Grand Theft Auto London and recently in Grand Theft Auto V.

3 23

The GTA 5 Tour Bus takes on a modern Los Angeles Tour Bus look and takes design inspirations from real-life Tour Busses from Access Hollywood Tours. The chassis is derived from the Burrito van with modifications to accommodate eight passenger seats.

Since the Tour Bus is designed to take as many passengers slowly across Los Santos, its performance is generally poor in the engine and chassis departments. The Tour Bus has excessive body roll, poor turning radius, and poor acceleration but is durable.

Where to find the Tour Bus

Your best chance of finding the Tour Bus in GTA 5 is waiting outside Up-n-Atom Burger just a few blocks from the Oriental Theater along Vinewood Boulevard between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. This is the starting point of the Vinewood Star Tour route, which means you can find the Vinewood Star Tour Guide waiting for passengers to join the tour.

7 20

The Tour Bus can also be found driving along the tour route around Los Santos during the daytime. Wait along Richman as the Tour Bus passes along this route as part of the city tour.

After 7:00 p.m., you can also find the Tou Bus parked outside the Oriental Theater along Vinewood Boulevard. You can approach the Tour Bus and take it without any trouble, as the doors are typically unlocked.

2 23

Where to buy the Tour Bus in GTA 5?

You cannot buy the Tour Bus in GTA 5, but you can steal it and drive it away for free if you can find it in-game.

4 24

You can easily find the Tour Bus by heading to Vinewood Boulevard just after 7:00 p.m. in-game. Head to the Oriental Theater and wait for the Tour Bus to spawn in the parking spot in front of the Oriental Theater.

5 24

Approach the Tour Bus and drive it away like you would with any other vehicle in GTA 5. The Tour Bus will permanently be unlocked, so the chances of getting a wanted level from taking the Tour Bus are relatively low.

Self-driven Tours

The Tour Bus is a lesser-known vehicle in GTA 5 because it is rare to see one driving around Los Santos streets. Ironically, the Tour Bus is very easy to find and acquire in GTA 5 since the vehicle spawns at specific times at a specific location in GTA 5.

If you want to acquire and drive the Tour Bus, just wait at Up-n-Atom Burger between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. in-game or wait until the tours are over and head to the Oriental Theater, where the Tour Bus is parked during the night.

Fun facts from our Moscow Metro Tours:

From the very first days of its existence, the Moscow Metro was the object of civil defense, used as a bomb shelter, and designed as a defense for a possible attack on the Soviet Union.

At a depth of 50 to 120 meters lies the second, the coded system of Metro-2 of Moscow subway, which is equipped with everything you need, from food storage to the nuclear button.

According to some sources, the total length of Metro-2 reaches over 150 kilometers.

The Museum was opened on Sportivnaya metro station on November 6, 1967. It features the most interesting models of trains and stations.

Coffee Ring

The first scheme of Moscow Metro looked like a bunch of separate lines. Listen to a myth about Joseph Stalin and the main brown line of Moscow Metro.

Zodiac Metro

According to some astrologers, each of the 12 stops of the Moscow Ring Line corresponds to a particular sign of the zodiac and divides the city into astrological sector.

Astrologers believe that being in a particular zadiac sector of Moscow for a long time, you attract certain energy and events into your life.

Paleontological finds 

Red marble walls of some of the Metro stations hide in themselves petrified inhabitants of ancient seas. Try and find some!
