60 days in Los Angeles Itinerary

Surrounded by mountain ranges, forests, valleys, beaches, and deserts, the metropolitan area of Los Angeles is home to over 17 million people.

Do your shopping at Rodeo Drive and Two Rodeo Drive. Relax by the water at Venice Beach and Boardwalk and Santa Monica Bay. Change things up with these side-trips from Los Angeles: Santa Monica (Bergamot Station, Santa Monica Place, &more), Anaheim (Disneyland Park, Founder's Park, &more) and Manhattan Beach (in Manhattan Beach). Pack the 6th (Tue) with family-friendly diversions at Universal Studios Hollywood. The adventure continues: see the sky in a new way at Griffith Observatory, appreciate the extensive heritage of Hollywood Walk of Fame, have fun at California Science Center, and get a taste of the local shopping with Abbot Kinney Boulevard.
