Expert Tips

“Avoid the infamous LA traffic and high parking fees, and take an easy ride on the Metro system instead. We went from watching a basketball game at the Staples Center in downtown to Santa Monica Beach so easily.”

“LA’s Amtrak Union Station is more than just a handy transport hub, it’s a destination in its own right that’s well worth lingering in. The stunning Art Deco building is so photogenic it’s featured in many a Hollywood movie and you can even take a behind-the-scenes tour showing you the best spots.”
