Los Angeles is not a walking city and pretending otherwise ruins first visits, so this is built around a rental car and four tight geographic clusters: Hollywood and Burbank, then Downtown, then Miracle Mile into Beverly Hills, then the Getty and the coast. Nothing crosses the city twice in a day and every drive between stops is 20 minutes or less outside rush hour. Two scheduling rules matter more than anything else here. Do not put day 1, 2 or 4 on a Monday — Griffith Observatory, The Broad and the Getty Center are all closed Mondays, which is most of this itinerary's spine. And day 3 cannot be a Tuesday (Academy Museum closed) while LACMA next door is dark Wednesdays. Budget includes a shared rental car, fuel and parking; drop those and the trip costs about $520.

How we check
Anything with a kitchen or a ticket gate is verified individually: the official site where one exists, plus recent traveler reviews. Public squares, parks and viewpoints get an existence check. A venue we can’t confirm is flagged below rather than quietly kept, and the whole itinerary is re-checked on a cadence — past 12 months without one, the checked claim is dropped and the date above stops being a promise.
