Day 1: Start in Los Angeles
Get into the city that mixes up glamour, grit and the American Dream: Los Angeles. It’s packed with legends, full of energy and there are loads of things to do. Head to mythical Hollywood and walk across the holy ground for stars. Check out the Kodak Theatre, where the Oscars are held every year and Mann's Chinese Theatre, where so many greats have pressed their hands into the cement. Cruise down the hottest shopping street in LA, Melrose Avenue, and one of the best areas for nightlife, the Strip (Sunset Boulevard), with its billboards, clubs and eateries, before getting a glimpse at one of the world’s wealthiest suburbs in Beverly Hills. A little further west discover Santa Monica, LA’s oldest beach resort. Known for its liberal vibes, art galleries and wide sand beaches, Santa Monica is all about the California coast lifestyle. See the famous pier, which serves as a permanent amusement park, complete with a solar-powered Ferris wheel. Maybe later travel out to LA’s quirkiest suburb where anything goes: Venice Beach. A favourite hang-out spot for locals, colourful Venice Beach attracts all sorts of people. Get a feel for street life when you hit the buzzing broadwalk, where performers, tattoo artists, hair braiders, musicians and roller bladders gather. Make sure you check out the markets and stalls, as well as the greased-up bodybuilders pumping iron at the famous open-air gym, Muscle Beach. Later head out and hit the town's hottest bars and clubs.
Day 2: Los Angeles
After just one day you'll most likely be aware of how sprawling this metropolis is, so rise early and get the discoveries underway. Take your hop-on-hop-off sightseeing tour if you didn't do it yesterday, or if you feel like playing it local you could go kick it on Venice Beach and sip almond lattes whilst watching watching buskers and skaters. Love a bit of Mickey? Hit the amusement parks and let your inner 10-year-old squeal with joy.
Day 3: End Los Angeles
That's all folks! You are officially acquainted with the city of angels, and probably quite taken by its intoxicating vibe. Unless you've "been spotted" and flung into a new life as the next Leo-D, it's time to pack your bags and kick on to your next Contiki adventure.
