Car Hire Los Angeles

Take a driving tour of Los Angeles to see the city's most famous sites including Beverly Hill's Rodeo Drive, the Hollywood Sign, Hollywood Bowl and Venice Boardwalk, among many others. Stand on the Walk of Fame where Marilyn Monroe, Tom Hanks, Fred Astaire and hundreds of other celebrities have their stars cemented in the sidewalk.

Drive out to the stunning beaches of Santa Monica and Malibu, before taking in a LA Lakers game or touring Universal Studios with the family. Stargaze from the Griffith Observatory, one of the finest planetariums in the world, the Museum of Tolerance or the fascinating archaeological findings at the Page Museum at La Brea Discoveries. Greater Los Angeles is massive and divided into many suburbs and neighbourhoods, each with their own unique attractions and character. L.A. is one of the USA's most popular destinations, but it is fairly spread out, so hiring a car is definitely the easiest way to make the most of your time in this iconic American city!

Southern California offers an array of destinations within short driving distance of Los Angeles. Go wine tasting in Santa Barbara, hike in one of the many national parks, surf and relax on the beaches of Orange County or venture to San Diego, another highly popular destination just a few hours south of Los Angeles.

If you'd like to head outside of California, travel north east to Las Vegas or south east to Phoenix, Arizona. From L.A. you can drive to the famed Death Valley, Grand Canyon, Sequoia National Forest and a number of other astonishing destinations. Whether you like glitz and glam or seek a more rustic holiday experience, you can find it all in and around Los Angeles!
