Los Angeles, California for Pre-Teens & Teens

3 day trip

Day 1

    • Historical Landmark
    • Theater
    Mann's Chinese Theater

    Los Angeles, CA

    This grand theater's place in film history may be lost on young kids, but they'll still get a kick out of seeing all the famous footprints in cement. You can...

    • Special Collection
    Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum

    Los Angeles, CA

    • Neighborhood
    • Boutique
    Rodeo Drive

    Beverly Hills , CA

    Start where Rodeo Drive meets Wilshire Blvd., then work your way up perhaps the priciest shopping street in America. Prada, Gucci, Versace, Tiffany -- they're all here -- and teens especially will...

    • Farmers Market
    • Shopping Mall
    The Grove and The Original Farmers Market

    Los Angeles, CA

Day 2

    • Surfing
    Santa Monica Surf School

    • Beach
    • Wildlife Sanctuary
    • Surfing
    • Fishing
    Malibu Lagoon

    Los Angeles, CA

    Malibu stretches for 27 miles up the coast, but you don't have to go far to find tide pools filled with anemones, crabs, sea cucumbers, and starfish. Park in the...

    • Burgers
    The Counter

    Santa Monica, CA

    The menu is pretty simple here: beef, turkey, and vegetarian burgers with fries, shakes and a few salads and kid favorites (like pb&j and grilled cheese). To order, you...

    • Amusement Park
    • Bicycling
    Santa Monica Pier & Pacific Park

    Santa Monica, CA

    As if screaming down the rails of a rollercoaster isn't exciting enough, here you can do it with the Pacific Ocean as a backdrop. The big rides for big kids...

    • Amusement Park
    Universal Studios Hollywood

    Universal City, CA

    It wouldn't be a trip to L.A. if your family didn't get a little taste of Hollywood magic. Every attraction at Universal Studios is related to a movie or TV...
