4 Most Visited Tourist-Attractions in SoCal

Los-Angeles-limousine-LA-limo-service-premier-transportation-2016As the top-rated luxury transportation company in Southern California, we transport thousands of tourists on a yearly basis. With more than 14 million foreign visitors per year, the City of Angels has one of the world’s largest numbers of tourists.

For us locals, it is easy to forget all the great landmarks and activities that signify the Greater L.A. Area. We have listened to all the tourists and visitors riding with our services. Here are our customer’s most popular tourist attractions in the city.

4. Sunset Strip

limousine-Hollywood-limo-service-Los-AngelesJust making up 1.7 miles of Sunset Boulevard, the Sunset Strip with its flashing neon signs and billboards is one of the most popular LA limo destinations. Besides being the place with the highest density of rock clubs in America, Sunset is also famous for its many rock venues, shops, and nightclubs. Some of the most popular places to visit here include the Viper Room, Whisky A-Go-Go as well as the Rainbow Bar & Grill.

The Viper Room is one of the most famous nightclubs in town, previously run by Johnny Depp and the location of River Phoenix’s death. Marilyn Monroe went on blind dates at the Rainbow Bar, a place where also Guns N’Roses regularly had concerts. Jimi Hendrix performed regularly at the Whisky-A-Go-Go.

Other popular places here include the Sunset Plaza, famous for its European stores and restaurant, as well as the Sunset Tower Hotel and the Standard Hollywood. Famous for its gigantic billboards, it’s not seldom that tourists book an LAX airport sedan just to head to the Sunset Strip to see the billboards. Come to the Sunset Strip to people-watch, head out to the bars, or party all night long. The House of Blues, the Comedy Store, and the Roxy are additional key attractions on the Sunset Strip.

3. Hollywood

hollywood-party-bus-and-sedanOf tourists utilizing our Los Angeles limo service, Hollywood is an incredibly popular destination for various reasons. Besides famous landmarks such as the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the Hollywood Sign, Hollywood is also the largest hub for popular culture in the world with film studios and numerous musical performances throughout the year.

Hollywood is also home to some of the greatest nightlife in the city, and many visit the area with limos to skip the hassle of finding a designated driver, deal with traffic, and struggle with finding parking. Having a chauffeured luxury vehicle at hand makes it also significantly easier to go club- or bar hopping to various places throughout the city. Why stay confined to one area, when some of the most happening places are spread throughout the city. Many also decide to order buses to go out on town, for instance, locals ordering a Calabasas party bus to head partying in Hollywood is a common thing. What’s better than drinking and dancing in a bus on your way to the clubs!?

Many have called our representatives and asked about opening times for clubs in L.A. and complain about the nightlife ending early. It is a common misbelief that the nightlife ends at either 2 am or 4 am. That is not true. Avalon Hollywood closes for instance at 5 am on Fridays and not till 8 am on Saturdays, while Downtown’s Exchange L.A. closes at 6 am on Saturdays. And with limousines or party buses of your choice, the party in Hollywood ends when you want it to.

2. Santa Monica

Third Street Promenade and the Santa Monica Beach and Pier are some of the most iconic L.A. landmarks and attractions. Many come to the Third Street Promenade to experience some of the city’s best shopping. Other Santa Monica attractions include the Pier Aquarium, Muscle Beach, the Museum of Flying, the Santa Monica Looff Hippodrome, and many more.

At the Third Street Promenade is for example where you’ll find one of the region’s most popular shopping malls: Santa Monica Place just a few blocks from the beach. After shopping at the promenade, head down 3rd Street Promenade until you reach Santa Monica Beach. This is where you’ll find the famous pier and its amusement park, the Pacific Park. Along the seaside are numerous shops, restaurants, cafes, and more.

Just the other day we serviced clients with a Calabasas party bus to head from Calabasas to Santa Monica Beach in style. After partying their way down, without the worry of traffic and parking, they arrived in Santa Monica and biked to nearby Venice Beach to enjoy a locally crafted beer at one of the many beachside restaurants. Prefer wine tasting? Book an L.A.- or Malibu wine tour to experience the best of Southern California wines.

1. Universal Studios & Disneyland

Universal-Studios-limo-in-Los-AngelesDisneyland in Anaheim is the 7th most visited tourist attraction in the United States and one of the most visited places by our limousines. We even often have customers booking our LAX airport sedan services to head directly to Disneyland from the airports! With more than 16.1 million visitors per year, Disneyland is California’s most visited attraction and a must for anyone visiting Southern California.

Yet another hugely popular amusement park visited by our Los Angeles limo service is Universal Studios and adjacent Universal CityWalk. Here people come to learn about the movie filming at the Universal studio tours, enjoy the cool rides, or stroll along the Universal CityWalk next door to explore the great shopping and restaurants found along this famous street.

Want something faster-going? Six Flags Magic Mountain is a 260-acre amusement park with the highest number of rollercoasters in the United States. Rides such as Viper and Goliath are some of the fastest rollercoasters in the world. Go for one of America’s quickest roller coasters, followed up by a beer and dinner at one of the park’s many restaurants and cafes.

Prefer something for the smaller kids? The younger crowd usually falls in love with Knott’s Berry Farm, a smaller and less crowded amusement park. Many LA limo clients also head south to Orange County and visit North America’s biggest indoor water park, the Great Wolf Lodge in Garden Grove.

Other popular amusement parks for grownups and kids alike include Disney California Adventure in Anaheim, the Legoland California Resort in Carlsbad, SeaWorld San Diego, Santa Monica’s Pacific Park, Knott’s Soak City in Buena Park, Adventure Park in Anaheim, Balboa Fun Zone in Newport Beach, and many, many more. Many of the smaller parks are less crowded with fewer lines and oftentimes more affordable.

What is your favorite L.A. landmark? Iconic L.A. landmarks that didn’t make our list include Beverly Hills’ Rodeo Drive, the Getty Museum, L. A. County Museum of Art (LACMA), the Griffith Park and Griffith Observatory, Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), Exposition Park, Olvera Street, Venice, Staples Center, Madame Tussauds Hollywood, the Hollywood Bowl, the Grammy Museum and many, many more attractions and landmarks found throughout the larger LA Area.

Where you find Hollywood celebrities

The-choice-for-a-Beverly-Hills-limo-serviceThe City of Angels might be the most popular in the world as far as celebrity sightseeing. And having become the largest and top-rated provider of Los Angeles limousine services we have witnessed an increase in locals and tourists alike asking for tips on where to spot famous people.

While some may tell you: “It’s Hollywood, just go to a K-mart and you’ll see celebrities”, we all know the chances are pretty limited in one of the gazillion convenience stores throughout the city. Not only do we provide local L.A. city tours, but we have also transported celebrities for numerous years. Without revealing too much about our LA limo service clientele we can mention Will Smith, Kim Richards, Jeb Bush, Gary Busey, and many more.

Areas in which to see celebrities

limousine-Los-Angeles-city-tours-by-LA-limo-service-and-celebrity-tourIn all of Southern California, you really do have the potential of seeing one of your favorite celebrities, but certain cities, districts, and areas of town are more popular than others. As you probably guessed, both the communities of Beverly Hills and Bel Air fit this category. Other celebrity enclaves, such as Calabasas or Hidden Hills, also are popular communities for many of L.A.’s rich and famous. Being home to celebrities such as Justin Bieber and Khloé Kardashian, our Calabasas party bus rentals are for example hugely popular in the region.

In Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive from Julia Roberts’ Pretty Woman is a popular street for the ultra-wealthy. The street might be the most prestigious shopping street in the world, and many L.A.-visitors using our LA limo service love strolling up and down this street while window-shopping in the far-high-end boutiques on the lookout for celebrities.

The once sleepy neighborhood of Westwood was developed into Bel Air in the 1920s, making it one of the most expensive neighborhoods in America, packed with multi-million dollar mansions and some amazing views overlooking the city. In Bel Air, Hotel Bel-Air might be your best bet for celebrity spotting. Other areas include the Century City Shopping Center, which is with its many high-end vendors a place our clientele often experience to spot a celebrity or two.

The famous Sunset Strip, which is adjacent to Beverly Hills, is a little over a mile from Sunset Boulevard,  but also a city center for the city’s nightlife. Be on the lookout for paparazzis!

So where can you spot celebrities?

The-Premier-Los-Angeles-Limo-Service-and-LA-tour-companyAs celebrities maybe surprisingly are like most other people, it is not too easy to pinpoint the exact location of celebrity swarms… At least many believe so. On the quite contrary though, serving stars and other notables for over fifteen years, we know some of the spots where celebrities hang out. Except for the general stuff, such as the airport (LAX sedan requests are maybe destination number one of L.A.’s rich and famous), there are also various other destinations where you are even more likely to spot a celebrity or two.

For once, the wineries of the Malibu Canyons often served on our Malibu wine tours, are great retreats from celebrities’ city life. It is also widely known that celebrities such as Matt Damon and Jennifer Lawrence are among the many frequently staying at the Ace Hotel in Downtown. Kim Kardashian, Michael Douglas, and Nicole Kidman are among the numerous seen at the Beverly Hills Hotel & Bungalows.

Movie stars such as Reese Witherspoon and Ben Affleck are known to love the Brentwood Country Mart, while Runyon Canyon’s over 150 acres are popular with celebrities such as Justin Timberlake, Jessica Biel, Matthew Morrison, and so many more. Other places with great chances of spotting your favorite artist or movie stars include the Piano Bar Lounge upstairs at the Mastro’s Steakhouse, Dan Tana’s in West Hollywood, as well as George’s California Modern in La Jolla.
