Problems accessing public folder with laravel

I'm a beginner when it comes to this laravel but having a hard time trying to get going. Basically I've installed laravel but I have a problem when it comes to accessing the public folder. I'm using MAMP and currently have my laravel folder inside htdocs

//Applications/MAMP/htdocs/learning-laravel

I've given permissions to the folder 'public' (chmod 777 public) and 'storage' with no luck. I've tried to make a Virtual Host with the http.conf file with no luck. Here is the error I'm getting below.

The website encountered an error while retrieving http://instapics.com:8888/learning-laravel/public/. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.

Not really sure where to go from here as I've been trying at this for 2 days now.

If you are running it locally with MAMP, it's most likely not a permission error. You should be able to access it with the url:

localhost:8888/learning-laravel/
