Arrive at LAX airport. You must arrive by 8:00AM to get your bags and get to the tour bus
on time. If you have a cell phone you can call the tour operator to confirm arrival (number
will be provided on confirmation).
Start your trip with a Grand Tour of Los Angeles and Hollywood by LA City Tours.
They will pick you up outside of your terminal. You can take your luggage with you on the
tour van.
Let the driver know that you will not be returning to LAX. You can get dropped off at your
hotel if it’s on their list of drop-off points. Otherwise, you can get dropped off at their office
on Hollywood Boulevard, then take the Red Line train (across the street) to your hotel.
Order Link: http://LAtourist.com/LAXlayoverTour
After you have checked into your hotel, head back to Hollywood and Highland Metro
station to take in the sights on Hollywood Boulevard. In general, the idea is to explore
Hollywood Boulevard east and west of Highland Avenue (western boundary: La Brea Blvd;
eastern boundary: Vine Street), and then make your way back to Hollywood and Highland
entertainment complex by around 5:00 PM or so. This is a good opportunity to grab a bite
to eat. There are dining choices inside of Hollywood and Highland entertainment complex,
and at several places nearby on Hollywood Boulevard.
First, take a look around at the Hollywood and Highland entertainment complex. In
particular, go to an Observation Deck on either the third or fourth level, to view the
Hollywood Sign.
Next, walk to the Chinese Theatre, which is adjacent on Hollywood Boulevard. It takes
about half an hour to look at the handprints and footprints. It’s interesting to see all the
familiar names of stars from the past side-by-side with current celebrities (i.e., John Wayne
is next to John Travolta). Be sure to take a look at the inspirational quote by Marilyn
Monroe on the west end of the courtyard.
The next tour begins right outside the courtyard. You’ll see the StarLine tour office there,
and you can ask them which bus or van you need to board.
See Los Angeles from a new perspective on an L.A. City Night Tour (by StarLine Tours),
which includes Mulholland Drive, Beverly Hills, Disney Hall, the Performing Arts Center
in downtown LA, Universal CityWalk, and more. The tour ends back at the Chinese Theatre
courtyard, which is a short walk from the Red Line station so you can get back to your
hotel.

TUESDAY
Breakfast. There is an IHOP on Sunset Blvd, near Orange Drive. It’s about a 5-minute walk
from the Hollywood and Highland Station. You can walk south on Highland to Sunset
Blvd, then walk west one block. You will need to be at the Red Line Tours office on
Hollywood Boulevard, on the other side of Highland, by around 9:45 AM.
Work off that big breakfast with a walking tour of Hollywood Boulevard on the
Red Line Hollywood Behind-the-Scenes Tour (GoLA). The tour office is at 6708
Hollywood Blvd. After the tour, head over to the second level of Hollywood and Highland.
Go LA Card Order Link: http://LAtourist.com/GoLAcard
Next up is the Kodak Theatre Guided Tour (GoLA). You will need to arrive about 10
minutes before the tour starts. You might be able to get there in time for the 11:30 AM tour,
but if not, then take the tour that departs at 12:00 PM.
Spend the rest of the day exploring Hollywood and nearby on the StarLine Tours
Hop-On, Hop-Off Double Decker Fun Bus (use the Red Route, departing from the
Chinese Theatre courtyard). Get on the 12:30 PM bus if you can; otherwise, take the bus
that leaves at 1 PM.

1:00 PM
to
9:00 PM
Following is a simple schedule, but there are many other stops, so you could custom-design
a tour to suit your interests:
• Hollywood's Rock Walk
o Arrive 1:05 PM; Depart 1:35 PM
o The entrance of Guitar Center on Sunset Blvd contains many hand print
impressions of famous Rock n’ Roll celebrities such as members of AC/DC,
Aerosmith, B.B. King, Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, Frank Zappa, Johnny
Cash, KISS, The Ramones and almost 200 more. If you are a guitar
aficionado then you might want to take an extra half hour to explore the vast
selection of instruments at the Guitar Center.
• Rodeo Drive
o Arrive 2:10 PM, Depart 2:40 PM
o You briefly visited Rodeo Drive yesterday – now here’s the opportunity to
stay as long as you like. But if you’ve already seen enough here, then you
could skip this stop and spend more time somewhere else.
• Beverly Center (Lunch and Shopping)
o Arrive 2:55 PM, Depart 3:55 PM
o This mega-mall is a shopper’s paradise, and a great place for lunch or a
snack. There are other restaurants throughout Beverly Center, and a food
court on the top level. If you ate a big breakfast at IHOP then you could limit
this meal to a snack, and save some room for dinner in the early evening at
The Grove or Farmers Market.

WEDNESDAY
Walk to your nearby Metro Red Line station, and take the train to the Universal City
Station. From there, cross Lankershim Blvd to take the free Universal City Shuttle to the top
of the hill near the main gate of Universal Studios.
Spend the day at Universal Studios (GoLA), and CityWalk Hollywood. The park usually
opens at 10:00 AM, although hours vary each day so check the schedule before you go.
Sometimes it opens at 9:00 AM and you might be able to go earlier, if desired. The park
usually closes between 6 and 8:00 PM. CityWalk is open until at least 9:00 PM, and later in
the summertime. Restaurants remain open until 11 PM or later.
You can take the Red Line train directly back to your hotel, or if you’re not yet ready to call
it a night, you could stop off at the Hollywood and Highland station to take in some more
Hollywood Boulevard sightseeing.
THURSDAY
If your hotel is on the LA City Tours pickup route, then a van will pick you up at a
scheduled time between 8:30 and 9:00 AM. Otherwise, then go to LA City Tours office by
about 8:45 AM. It’s on Hollywood Blvd, across the street from Hollywood and Highland.
Today you will see the California coastline and some famous beaches on a Beach Tour of
Marina del Rey, Venice Beach (short stop) and Santa Monica. Much of the time will be
spent in Santa Monica, since that is where there are the most attractions. Recommended
hotspots are the Third Street Promenade and Santa Monica Pier. Near the top of the Pier
driveway is the southern end of Palisade Park, where you can get some great photographs
of the Pier and the Pacific Ocean. Adjacent to the Promenade is Santa Monica Place, a
newly renovated shopping mall. Pacific Park (GoLA) is located on the Santa Monica Pier,
and features a Ferris Wheel that overlooks the beaches and ocean, plus a roller coaster and
other rides. The Go LA Card includes unlimited rides at Pacific Park, as well as admission
to the Santa Monica Pier Aquarium (under the Pier).
Order Link: http://LAtourist.com/BeachTour
When you return from the Beach Tour, head across to the other side of Highland Avenue to
the Hollywood Museum (GoLA). The museum closes at 5:00 PM.
Go LA Card Order Link: http://LAtourist.com/GoLAcard
Here are some suggestions for dinner:
Mel’s Diner next to Hollywood Museum; or L.A.’s favorite hamburgers at
In N’ Out on Sunset Blvd at Orange (across the street from IHOP).
When you’re finished eating, head on over to Madame Tussaud’s (GoLA) showcase of
wax celebrities. It’s on Hollywood Blvd and Orange Drive, next to the Chinese Theatre. It
takes around two hours or so to view the exhibits. Afterward, enjoy more sightseeing on
Hollywood Blvd, or return to the hotel.

Take the Red Line train to the Civic Center Metro station in Downtown Los Angeles. Use
the First Street exit to get out of the station.
Walk west (up the hill) on First Street to Walt Disney Concert Hall, at Grand Avenue. Take
a free tour at the Performing Arts Center of Los Angeles (PACLA), such as:
• Symphonian Tour (10:30 AM; 90 minutes) – a docent-led, guided tour of all four
major theatres in the PACLA complex: Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, Ahmanson
Theatre, Mark Taper Forum, and Walt Disney Concert Hall. Try to arrive by 10:15
so you can get on this tour (if available).
• Walt Disney Concert Hall self-guided tour – Walk through Disney Hall as you listen
to a recorded tour on a hand-held listening device. The self-guided tour covers the
building's design and construction, plus the gardens and building structure outside. It
takes around 60-90 minutes to complete this tour, if you take pictures and listen to
the entire narration.
• Both tours begin at the Disney Concert Hall main lobby.
• Tour availability varies daily so check the schedule at PACLA’s website
(MusicCenter.org) to find out which tours are offered during your visit.
After the tour, walk south to the Museum of Contemporary Art at 222 Grand Avenue. It is a
red brick building on the other side of the street.
Spend some time exploring the exhibits at MOCA Grand Avenue (GoLA), which is the
Museum of Contemporary Art’s main venue.
(See alternatives to MOCA Grand Avenue on the next page)
When you are finished at MOCA, walk out to Grand Avenue and take the DASH B bus
from Grand Avenue and Second Street, to Union Station.
(See the next page for side trips after MOCA Grand Avenue)
Walk through Union Station to the main entrance, and then walk outside to Alameda Street.
Cross the street to La Plaza in El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument. On the
south side of La Plaza you will find historical buildings and museums. North of La Plaza is
Olvera Street, which is full of shops and stands that sell clothes, Mexican art, pottery,
blankets, souvenirs and other items. There you will also find two museums: Sepulveda
House (Visitors Center is here - get a self-guided tour brochure) and Avila Adobe (the oldest
building in Los Angeles).
Return to Union Station, and take the Red Line train back to the hotel to pick up your bags.
Take a taxi cab or SuperShuttle shared-ride van from Hollywood to LAX.

Side Trips after MOCA Grand Avenue
Observation Deck at City Hall: When you’re finished at MOCA, instead of taking the DASH B all the
way to El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument, exit the bus after it turns left onto Los Angeles
Street, just past City Hall. The public entrance to City Hall is on Main Street, between Hill Street and
Temple Street. The security guard will issue a visitor pass and provide a leaflet with directions to the
Observation Level on the 27th Floor. When you’re done, you can easily walk to El Pueblo de Los
Angeles Historical Monument on Los Angeles Street (near Union Station), where you can continue the
Itinerary. The Observation Deck offers unobstructed views of Union Station, Disney Hall and other
major attractions in downtown L.A. You can find tourist attraction brochures and guides in the lobby.
Angel's Flight Railway and Angel's Knoll Park: When you are finished at MOCA, instead of taking
the DASH B to El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument, walk south (away from Disney Hall)
past the fountain in the back of MOCA, through One California Plaza, and then take the Angel's Flight
Railway to the bottom (a small fee is charged). On the way down you will pass by Angel's Knoll Park,
which was used as a setting in the movie, "(500) Days of Summer." At the bottom, enter the Pershing
Square Metro station on Hill Street near Fourth Street. Take the Red Line train to Union Station, and
then walk to El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument. TIP: Before you leave MOCA Grand
Avenue, ask a museum attendant to tell you how to get to Angel's Flight.
Alternatives to MOCA Grand Avenue
Little Tokyo: After the Performing Arts Center tour at Disney Hall, instead of going to MOCA Grand
Avenue, take the DASH A bus from 1st Street near Grand Avenue (right outside of Disney Hall) to
Little Tokyo, and visit the Japanese American National Museum (GoLA). Directly across the street
from the museum there’s an entrance to the Japanese Village Plaza Mall, which is full of Japanese ethnic
stores, restaurants and souvenir shops. Afterward, take the Gold Line train from Little Tokyo station
(near the museum) to Union Station, and then walk to El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument.
Jewelry District: After the Performing Arts Center tour at Disney Hall, you could go to the Jewelry
District instead of MOCA Grand Avenue. Take the DASH B bus from Grand Avenue (right outside of
Disney Hall), and exit at Olive Street near 6th Street. Then walk on 6th Street to Hill Street. You will
find several jewelry outlets along Hill Street between 6th and 7th Streets, some containing hundreds of
stores inside. After you’re finished at the Jewelry District, take the Red Line train from Pershing Square
station to Union Station so you can continue El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument.

About LAtourist Itinerary
It will be difficult to re-order the day-to-day events in the Itinerary. You can not easily change the order of the
attractions and tours, because the Itinerary is designed to take advantage of attractions that are near each other,
and the schedule relies heavily on each vendor's unique hours of operation. This would have been much easier if
all of the attractions were open all day long, Monday through Friday. But each has a unique schedule, and many
are closed at least one day during the week.
If this Itinerary was helpful to you, then please consider returning the favor in a way that’s relatively simple.
Here are some suggestions:
• Purchase a tour or hotel reservation using one of the links in the Itinerary
• Make your hotel reservations though http://LAtourist.com/Hotels
• Purchase a guided tour through http://LAtourist.com/GuidedTours
• Purchase a Go Los Angeles Card though http://LAtourist.com/GoLAcard
• If you know someone who wants to visit Los Angeles, please tell them about LAtourist.com
• If you have a blog, please mention LAtourist.com/Itinerary and/or LAtouristItinerary.com
• If you have a website, please link to LAtourist.com and/or LAtouristItinerary.com
Suggestions
Send an email to Info@LAtourist.com with suggestions on how to improve this Itinerary, such as:
• Is there anything you would add to the Itinerary, or any changes you would make?
• Were any of the instructions confusing or difficult to follow?
• Were there too many activities, not enough, or just right?
• Did you miss not having a car? Was the transportation adequate?
• Was anything you really wanted to see not included?
• Would you be willing to take a bus two hours each way to visit Disneyland?
I sincerely hope this Itinerary has been a useful resource in your travel planning, and I hope that my efforts
helped you choose Los Angeles as your vacation destination.
