The secret to successfully traveling with kids? Keep them moving. With your starting point in the Valley, transport is easy and the nights are quiet. Enjoy the LA Zoo and a horseback ride on the first day, so you can fit in more fun and activities the rest of the trip; and parents get to experience the city too.
The fun starts with carhop service at the oldest Bob's Big Boy in the country. Then it's a trip to the famed Los Angeles Zoo, which recently welcomed Angela, the adorable baby western lowland gorilla. After a Hollywood tour on horseback, you'll end the day with a meal at the legendary Smoke House Restaurant - kid-friendly, but adults will enjoy the film location setting and craft cocktails. You've earned it.
See Zoo babies like Angela the gorilla and Ninja the ocelot.
Today begins with a trip to the waterfront and ends with a drive-in movie - how LA can you get? Along the way, you'll visit a landmark open air market and enjoy some of the best Mexican BBQ in the city.
Experience LA's diversity with cultural trips to Mexico, China and more - no passport required. Your journey begins at two of LA's most famous historic districts, and continues with lunch at a landmark food hall and a ride on "the world's shortest railway." Finish the busy day with huge servings of old school Italian dishes - mamma mia!
