AVIS Car Rental at LAX Airport

Apart from the obvious theme park family attractions of Knott's Berry Farm, Universal Studios and Disneyland Resorts, which provide their own bus services, there are numerous tourist attractions in and around Los Angeles that are better visited by hire car.

The Pacific coast and a trip to San Francisco are quite manageable, not to mention the wonderful attractions of Yosemite and Death Valley National Parks, two nature reserves of outstanding natural beauty. Los Angeles also boasts a large number of golf courses, some of which are world-class, while others are adequate and modern, charging a daily fee and others again are merely municipal golf courses that charge reasonable prices but are perhaps a little run-down and in need of updating. Whatever the budget, there will be a golf course fairly close by that will tick all the boxes.

Visitors with a rental car might also like to explore the Santa Monica Mountain range or Santa Monica itself. The Santa Monica and Malibu areas have much to offer, not just spectacular seaside scenery but also a fun-packed pier with many attractions such as a great wheel, restaurants serving amazing seafood, gift shops, an educational maritime center and aquarium, as well as a great beach and night life, clubs and bars.

The northern valleys of San Fernando and Santa Clarita offer informative attractions such as the Nethercutt Collection and the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library as well as great wine, food and stunning scenery. At Long Beach and in South Bay visitors can enjoy the Aquarium of the Pacific, the Long Beach Museum of Art, the Los Angeles Maritime Museum and the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium.
