Transportation

Planning your transportation in and around LA will help you enjoy your time here. If you are renting a car, it is best to avoid rush-hour, Monday to Friday from 7 ? 9am and 3 ? 6pm. If you take a taxi from the airport (LAX) to downtown LA, you should be charged a fixed rate (ask for the rate at the airport before you take the taxi). While most public transportation in LA is limited to buses, there is also a growing metro (subway) which reaches a variety of tourist attractions. The subway, for example, connects the downtown area with Hollywood. No matter how you travel, planning your routes in advance by using online trip planners will make transportation in LA much smoother.
