Central Perk in Los Angeles

I made a short bucket list for our time in Los Angeles. 
One of my high school friends had posted a pictures sitting on the FRIENDS couch while visiting a set tour so I immediately added this to my bucket list and did some research on which tour would get.me.on.that.couch.

Rich isn't a die hard FRIENDS fan like I am, so I enlisted another die hard fan who happens to be a college friend of mine to be my partner in crime and we headed out to Burbank for the 3 hour tour.

The VIP Warner Brothers Tour is the tour to do!

This weekend was silly hot...like 100* in the Valley, no thanks.. 

We checked in at the tour, ran over the Claim Jumper, downed a Bloody Mary and then jumped on the extra long golf cart and headed to the Warner Brothers Sets to begin the tour.

The first stop was checking out the car museum where most of the Batman Cars are located. Pretty awesome!

What is amazing is that most of these cars can actually drive.

The highlight of the tour, for me, was Central Perk. It was seriously amazing!

After our visit at central perk, we continued on to tour the active set of Pretty Little Liars, The Mentalist and 2 Broke Girls. As we drove around the lot, the tour guide offered a lot of great detail and information about certain iconic movie/TV show scenes and pointed out the shot location.

Who remembers the scene in FRIENDS where Phoebe and Rachel run through Central Park? Well we drove past "Central Park" and decided to hop off of the cart and run like Phoebe. Yes.We.Did.


We had a blast being goofy, silly and star stuck.

If you love movies and watching TV, this was a great set tour and I would totally recommend it!
