Reasons to visit Los Angeles
Shopping in Santa Monica, Rodeo Drive and more
Santa Monica Place is an open-air shopping mall with over 70 premier shops, including legendary Bloomingdale’s – it’s also home to a cinema and the Cayton Children’s Museum.
If you want to go upmarket, head over to Rodeo Drive. Here you’ll find more than 100 world-famous stores within its three-block Golden Triangle.
Bargain hunters will want to visit one of the numerous flea markets – the Rose Bowl Market is held in the car park of the Rose Bowl sports stadium, with vintage clothing, antiques and more. Melrose Trading Post attracts around 200 sellers and is open every Sunday.
See the stars
Head to Griffith Observatory to star gaze through telescopes, then head to the Hollywood Walk of Fame to see stars of a different sort. Hollywood royalty are honoured with their own golden stars – walk along and find your favourite actors.
Then head to Universal Studios for some of the most exciting rides in the world – many inspired by blockbusters like Jurassic World, King Kong and Fast & Furious. Go backstage with tours of famous film sets and discover some of Hollywood’s movie-making secrets.
Visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter too, dress up as your favourite character and use a wand to solve puzzles.
Enjoy a hike in the hills
It’s not all about the city in LA – drive into the hills or explore one of the vibrant neighbourhoods. There are canyons and gorgeous forests to explore.
Hike to the Hollywood Sign on Mount Lee, catch some stunning views over the city from Mulholland Drive or head out to the Angeles National Forest and stroll among its 700,000 acres of protected woodland.
Areas like Pasadena offer the chance to unwind, visit a museum and enjoy delicious food and drink. Silver Lake is one of the most eclectic neighbourhoods, with stunning parks, quirky bars and cafes and reputedly the best farmers’ market in Los Angeles.

Alternatively, car rental companies have outlets at the airport. Shuttle buses also pick up from all terminals and offer frequent services connecting to Downtown and Hollywood.
Where to stay in Los Angeles
Your itinerary will help determine where you stay in Los Angeles – the city is vast, so decide before you go what sights you want to see.
For the beach, try Santa Monica, where you’ll find a wide range of accommodation. Beverly Hills and Malibu are ideal for luxury stays, while Downtown Los Angeles is perfect if you’re looking for a central location.
Getting around Los Angeles
Renting a car is convenient – just be careful where you park, especially on side streets. Alternatively, take a taxi or rent a scooter. Big Blue Buses run past Santa Monica, Dash buses loop around various neighbourhoods and there’s also an underground rail network which is cheap and extensive – use TAP cards to top up credit.
Sun protection
When booking plane tickets to Los Angeles, it’s a good idea to take plenty of sun cream and moisturiser, as well as staying hydrated. Although mostly warm all year round, it can be breezy at times, so make sure to pack an extra layer of clothing if you want to catch a beachside sunset.
