A smart way to beat the traffic is to book a tour of world-famous sightseeing stops such as Universal Studios, Disneyland, Hollywood and other legendary Southern California landmarks. Visitors can come up with plenty to pass the time on a trip to L.A., in places like museums (the Getty Center, LACMA, the Norton Simon), and family-friendly amusement parks (Disneyland and Magic Mountain, both minutes outside of the city, depending on traffic). Hollywood Boulevard sits at the heart of it all, hosting the legendary Walk of Fame, while the Hollywood History Museum and the Paley Center for Media offer a glimpse behind the silver screen.
