LAtourist Itinerary - Hollywood and Los Angeles

Walk to your nearby Metro Red Line station, and take the train to the Universal City Station. From there, cross Lankershim Blvd to take the free Universal City Shuttle to the top of the hill near the main gate of Universal Studios.

Spend the day at Universal Studios (GoLA), and CityWalk Hollywood. The park usually opens at 10:00 AM, although hours vary each day so check the schedule before you go. Sometimes it opens at 9:00 AM and you might be able to go earlier, if desired. The park usually closes between 6 and 8:00 PM. CityWalk is open until at least 9:00 PM, and later in the summertime. Restaurants remain open until 11 PM or later.

You can take the Red Line train directly back to your hotel, or if you're not yet ready to call it a night, you could stop off at the Hollywood and Highland station to take in some more Hollywood Boulevard sightseeing.
