The City of Angels, La La Land, Tinseltown, The Entertainment Capital of the World… Los Angeles has many names, and many reasons to visit!

The city where stars are born, it’s the home of the worldwide movie industry, but that’s not all that it has to offer.

From Santa Monica to Beverley Hills, and Hollywood to Malibu, each of the many neighbourhoods in L.A. has plenty to see and do.

For example, take a stroll down the Hollywood Walk of Fame, go surfing in Malibu, take a bike ride down Venice Beach or take a tour of the homes of the stars in Beverley Hills.

But it isn’t all about the glamour of Hollywood, and if you scratch under the surface you’ll find a buzzing edgy arts and cultural scene.

And when the sun goes down, head to the iconic venues of Sunset Boulevard, or the hipster neighbourhoods such as Echo Park.

L.A. is a great year-round destination, with sunshine more or less throughout the year, so there’s never a bad time to visit!

So with so much to see and do, and a stunning backdrop of pristine beaches and stunning mountains, valleys and canyons, why not book your dream trip to L.A. with Globehunters today?

The Airport(s)

The major airport in Los Angeles is Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), although smaller airports serve other nearby areas such as the San Fernando and San Gabriel Valleys, Long Beach and Orange County.

Los Angeles International (LAX)

LAX Airport is located about 19 miles to the south-west of Downtown Los Angeles. The majority of international and domestic flights into L.A. arrive here, and there are a number of options for onward travel.

The regular FlyAway bus service runs seven days a week between the airport and Irvine, Union Station, Van Nuys and Westwood, or the long distance Roadrunner Shuttle will take you further afield to Simi Valley, Ventura County or Santa Barbara.

You can also catch the Metro Green Line from the airport which mainly serves the city’s suburbs.

Of course, you can also take a taxi to get directly to your destination, but don’t expect it to be cheap!
