Home to Hollywood’s celeb-lifestyle, Rodeo Drive’s posh, and that southern California heat, Los Angeles is a city to see and be seen. A night out downtown brings you face-to-face with some of the best-dressed people this side of New York, but a visit to its’ suburbs finds cool sports bars and charming eateries. With mild temperatures year-round and extremely limited humidity, every day can be a beach day…and most locals will tell you they usually all are. The nearby Santa Monica Pier and hippie-driven Venice Beach are SoCal staples but some time indoors must be spent visiting one of the many live television show tapings or enjoying a film studio tour- after all, it’s still Hollywood!
While any LA tour guide will suggest a mandatory trip through the Hollywood Walk of Fame, much of this city’s charm lies in the air rather than specific locations. An unusual ambiance of confident swagger and laid-back friendliness fill the atmosphere, and it’s easy for visitors to sense that famed Los Angeles flair the moment they touch down at LAX airport.
