Southern California: Hub & Spoke
Greater Los Angeles is larger than life and it’s packed with wondrous places to explore, sights to see and interesting people to rub elbows with. Its five-county area covers 34,149 square miles, has 88 incorporated cities and is home to one of the world’s most culturally diverse populations. The region’s landscape reaches from posh desert oases and alpine recreation areas to the Pacific Coast with its 81 miles of pristine beaches. The climate is ideal throughout the year and many of the state’s and country’s most familiar icons are found here.
Los Angeles is the ideal destination for a hub and spoke itinerary. There are 27 major freeways which crisscross the region and travel over 600 miles. By selecting a favorite home base, groups can easily take daily excursions that are within reasonable driving distances and be able to spend a full day sailing to Catalina Island, golfing in Palm Springs, “star”-gazing in Hollywood or culture shopping at NOHO.
