International airport. Plane, train, bus car, any type of transportationl.
A car is a huge convience. You can go on guided tours, but a car gives you much more freedom. LA is to big to bicycle around effectivly. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

You need to drive around here, very spread out. Try to avoid rush hours and the major highway intersections during this time. About 6:30AM to 9AM, and 3:30PM to 7PM can be bad, depending where you are and the day.
If you have two or more people in your car, the carpool lane is great during rush hours. You will save so much time, and you will get to your destination less stressed.
On weekends, if you will be leaving the city, the earlier the better. By about 11AM it gets congested on the highways, but normally not nearly as bad as during the week. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

You've heard this before, I know, but I'll say it again . . . you need to get a car! Renting a car in LA is actually not that expensive (but I think you'll find that you do need to be over 25 for most of the major companies). Car culture is big in LA not because we particularly like them, but because it's very hard to enjoy (or work in) the city without one. (By the way, people that maintain that 'in LA you are what you drive' are usually people who are trying to convince themselves that spending more for their fancy car than their (less fancy) home really makes sense.)
If a car is really not an option, try to stay in Santa Monica and use the 'Big Blue Bus' line. This is a good idea as (1) you'll be in Santa Monica/Venice area for your base, which means you are at the consistently most vibrant beach area in town and (2) you will have easy, clean access to a bunch of other places. That said, a car will add to your pleasure a great deal.
Lastly, driving the LA freeways will probably feel daunting at first. Try to know where you are going before you get on as the road signs are not always are good as you would hope. For Brits especially, the fact that you are on a six or seven lane highway where everyone can overtake everyone else in any lane can be scary. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Los Angeles International Airport (called LAX) is the major airport of the region. For destinations within the USA the Orange County Airport often has cheaper flight offers. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

I arrived by plane, then you should rent a car, because LA is very big, and tourust places are far away, like Hollywood, Santa Monica, San Diego...
just rent a car, take my advice Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

A car is essential in getting around in the US, here I was lucky to travel in a 'Convertable Ford Mustang'. I really felt at home in California in this, what a car. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home
