Planning your trip to Los Angeles
Our advice for Los Angeles
European nationals
European nationals can travel to Los Angeles without a visa for tourist or business stays of 90 days or less thanks to the Visa Waiver Program (VWP). To qualify, they must hold a valid biometric or electronic passport, and obtain an Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) prior to departure. ESTA can be applied for online and is usually approved within minutes, but it is recommended to apply at least 72 hours before travel. On arrival, travelers must present a return or onward ticket and prove that they have sufficient funds for the duration of their stay.
Non-European nationals
For non-European international nationals, entry requirements to Los Angeles vary according to country of origin. Most travelers will need a non-immigrant visa, such as the B-2 visa for tourism. Visa applications must be made at the U.S. embassy or consulate in the country of residence, and may require an interview and the presentation of supporting documents, such as proof of ties to the country of origin and sufficient financial resources. Applicants must also pay a processing fee. Travelers must have a passport valid for the entire duration of their stay and a return or onward ticket.
Health
For a healthy stay in Los Angeles, take a few precautions. Hydrate regularly, especially when visiting the great outdoors, by drinking plenty of water. Protect yourself from the sun by applying broad-spectrum sunscreen, wearing a hat and sunglasses. Take advantage of the many healthy dining options available in the city, choosing well-balanced meals. If you're prone to allergies, watch out for periods of high pollen count. Finally, always carry a small first-aid kit with basic medicines and a list of hospitals and clinics close to your accommodation.
Safety
To ensure your safety in Los Angeles, follow these tips. Avoid traveling alone at night in less frequented neighborhoods, and prefer well-lit, busy areas. Keep your valuables safe and out of sight in your car, especially when visiting tourist attractions such as Hollywood Boulevard or Santa Monica Pier. Be vigilant on public transport and beaches. Use cab or VTC services for late-night journeys, and stay aware of your surroundings. In case of emergency, dial 911 to contact the emergency services.
What's the budget for a 1-week trip to Los Angeles?
In Los Angeles, the cost of accommodation varies considerably depending on the neighborhood and type of accommodation. For an average budget, expect to pay between $100 and $200 per night for a three-star hotel or bed and breakfast. Youth hostels are a more economical option, with rates ranging from $30 to $60 per night for a dormitory bed. Vacation rentals via Airbnb or other platforms can also offer good deals, especially for longer stays. It's advisable to book in advance, especially during peak tourist season, to get the best rates.
Los Angeles is a sprawling city, and getting around can be a big part of the budget. Renting a car is often the most practical solution, with daily rental rates around $30 to $50, not including gas and parking. Public transport, such as buses and subways, is a more economical option, with fares of around $1.75 per trip or $7 for an unlimited day pass. Using ride-sharing services such as Uber or Lyft can be convenient for one-off trips, with rates varying according to distance and demand.
Eating out in Los Angeles can be relatively affordable, even on an average budget. For quick, economical meals, food trucks and small local restaurants offer a variety of options for around $10 to $15 per meal. Mid-range restaurants, meanwhile, offer dishes between $20 and $40 per person. For those who prefer to cook, local supermarkets and markets offer fresh ingredients at reasonable prices. Plan on a daily food budget of around $30 to $50 per person, depending on your preferences and dining choices.
