Things To Do
Runyon Canyon
One of the most popular hiking trails in LA located in the heart of Hollywood. It has both easy and more challenging hiking options. Great for outstanding view of LA and, on a clear day, the Hollywood sign. We did this hike during Jordan's first trip to LA!
Gjelina
Jordan loves the ricotta pancakes!
Rodeo Drive
The word famous Rodeo Drive in the center of Beverly Hills is a can't miss. It's easy to lose track of time exploring Rodeo and all that Beverly Hills has to offer - amazing restaurants, shopping, and beautiful neighborhoods with some of the most spectacular homes (and cars, according to Jordan) in Los Angeles.
Kreation Juicery
Delicious juices and smoothies! There are multiple locations.
Santa Monica
The beach, the pier, the promenade - so much to do in Santa Monica! The Bungalow is a great place to grab a drink while watching the sunset.
Katsuya
The BEST spicy tuna on crispy rice!
The Getty
Art, architecture, and beautiful gardens all while enjoying incredible views of LA.
In-N-Out Burger
Multiple locations throughout LA. Experiencing Southern California's iconic burger is a must!
Century City and The Grove
Century City and The Grove are both beautiful, upscale, outdoor shopping malls. Recently renovated, Century City is home to all the best shopping - we love to come here during our trips to LA. The Grove has been a favorite Los Angeles destination since it opened. Don't forget to check out the dancing fountain, old fashion trolley, and the Original Farmers Market located next door!
Salt & Straw
I'll admit I've actually never been, but my brother says it is the best ice cream in LA!
Malibu
Malibu is home to some of the best beaches in LA, the Malibu country mart, and several vineyards. We went wine tasting at Malibu Wines, but unfortunately missed the Safari. Let us know how it is!
Joan’s on Third
Very popular for brunch!
Downtown LA
Filled with art, entertainment, and history. Check out MOCA or the new Broad museum for contemporary art, the Staples Center, LA Live, or Disney Concert Hall for some entertainment and sporting events, or El Pueblo de Los Angeles and Olvera Street, Chinatown, and Little Tokyo for some history and culture.
Urth Caffé Beverly Hills
Great for lunch. They are known for their organic coffee and teas.
Jon & Vinny's Brentwood
Fun vibe and delicious food. Try to the lemon pasta!
