Hire a Tour Guide to take you around L.A. 

Hiring a tour guide is the best way to see Los Angeles. L.A. is a conglomerate of cities spread across more than 500 square miles, and L.A. County in its entirety is nearly 5,000 square miles. Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, West Hollywood, Malibu, Manhattan Beach, Calabassas...these diverse cities and suburbs of Southern California are all interconnected by L.A.'s vast and slightly intimidating freeway system. Given the size of the area, it should come as no surprise that there are more than 500 miles of freeway in L.A. County.
