I have a layover in LA from 1.30pm to 11pm next week. I am willing to travel by taxi around 1/2 hour away from LAX, but cant decide where to go.
I am looking for stuff to do near LAX for around 8 hours. Cheap is best, but I wont be entirely poor (have been on vacation, and this will be my flights home back to Australia).
Would prefer to just go to one place, not getting cabs from one place to another.
Thanks in advance!

I work at LAX. We have shuttles that will take you anywhere you want to go, and they are cheaper than taxis. You could take a shuttle or bus or taxi to Venice Beach or Santa Monica. They are fun places to go. Are you male or female? Want to go to a mall? When you arrive you will be on the lower level. Every terminal has a Travelers Aid booth on this level. They have a book with tons of things to do for a few hours. In El Segundo there is a anituqe car museum, if you like old cars, just call them first and they will call someone to come in and they will even take you back to the airport in one of the old cars if a driver is available. 1-310-909-0950. 610 Lairport St. in El Segundo. There is a mall nearby, movies, Getty Museum. Check out the list at the Travelers Aid booth. Or send me an email and I will try and help. kingsleydr60@yahoo.com

nicely, the single ingredient you need to understand approximately L.A. is that that's huge, and its various attractions are conventional. in short, you will land up using from one place to a distinctive. L.A. isn't a walking city. So are not getting the thought you need to locate a hotel close to the places you desire to work out. It would not relatively artwork that way in L.A. no count the place you reside, you will finally end up using a lot. yet as far as which of the three factors you pronounced is the nicest, the respond is definitely Beverly Hills. stay there, in case you are able to locate the money for it. Then hire a motor vehicle, and be arranged tochronic - a lot. It will pay to devise your holiday out ahead - the place you desire to bypass, what you desire to work out, how long thechronic is between each and each place... Make a time table and save on with it. Map out your places and the routes you will take. Print out the maps. attempt to avert being on the freeways for the period of morning and evening rush hours - that's a site visitors nightmare.

There's not too much to do around the air port. If you've never been to LA before why don't you go down the Walk of Fame, which is Hollywood and Highland Ave.
It's going to be more than 30 minutes away though...it's LA and traffic is BAD.

I flew from Virginia to Greensboro, NC, then was flown from North Carolina to Michigan, ( 9 hour layover ), then from Michigan to LA ( Hollywood ).
By the time I got there, I was jet-lagged, and just wanted to go straight to my Hotel room.
I woke up the next afternoon, and didn't even hear the Housekeepers come in!!!
But Hollywood is so Lovely!!!
