When people say they want to “visit Los Angeles” I realize most don't quite understand what they want to get out of it, and end up disappointed stuck in traffic trying to go from hiking the Hollywood sign in the morning to Malibu for dinner (don't do this!). There is SO much to see and experience, and LA is it's HUGE. If you're not from here, it's easy to get overwhelmed, because “visiting LA” could mean anywhere between Santa Barbara and Manhattan Beach. Some recommend picking one area and staying to enjoy all the pockets of unique neighborhoods, but if you're new to the area, chances are you want to explore. You can see a lot of it with some planning (which, yes, typically revolves around the traffic). As an LA local, I've put together an itinerary that gives you the best of both worlds, where I've taken my friends and family when they visit. It's a mix of city, nature, local faves and iconic must-sees. Pick and choose from this itinerary, that includes that majestic Channel Islands, Santa Monica, Venice, Hollywood, and Malibu. Prepare for a weekend that’s equal parts coastal escape and urban excitement, crafted perfectly for you.Please note, some of my links contain affiliate links, meaning if you click on it and make a purchase through it, I receive a commission at no extra cost to you.
