WHO WE ARE
A recent study found that more than 50% of Americans are one paycheck away from becoming homeless. This inspired a small group of Los Angeles locals to create a nonprofit organization called Road Less Traveled Tours. Designed to eliminate the negative stigmas attached to the homeless communities, we strive to create safe spaces to share real experiences, discuss solutions, raise awareness, and bring the city together to resolve this crisis.
Our walking tours are designed to help locals and visitors of Los Angeles experience the historical and cultural makeup of the city while sharing the art of storytelling through our tour guides leaders - who identify as homeless. All tour proceeds go directly to our tour guides to help them get back on their feet. Our program provides training and life mentorship to help them grow as professionals.
​
As part of our commitment to uplift the local community, we have partnered with Plogging Los Angeles to maintain clean and safe neighborhoods, parks, and beaches. This group promotes environmental awareness through fitness. All you need is your running gear and a desire to make a change.
