LA spreads tourists out — and that means time-wasting traps.
1️⃣ Hollywood Walk of Fame Expectations
Many expect glamour. It’s crowded and commercial.
Smart Move:
Spend 30 minutes max, then head to Griffith Observatory.
2️⃣ Hollywood Sign “Close-Up Tours”
Some charge high fees for views you can access via public hikes.
Smart Move:
Research free hiking routes beforehand.
3️⃣ Underestimating Traffic
“20 minutes away” can mean 1 hour.
Smart Move:
Group attractions by zone.
4️⃣ Overpriced Beach Souvenir Shops
Generic items at inflated prices.
Smart Move:
Buy gifts in supermarkets or Target.
