Family Vacations

Whether visiting Los Angeles for a day or for a full week long vacation, you have picked a great place to unwind and have some fun. There’s so much to do, that you’ll be sure to plan a return trip just to cover what you missed! Rent a van in Los Angeles and take the family out to a few of the museums or even an amusement park, riding comfortably in an 8 passenger rental van. Larger groups can choose a 12 passenger rental van or even a 15 passenger rental van in Los Angeles for a fun filled day riding in style and comfort from one activity to the next.

Even a family will make a point to stop and visit the infamous Hollywood Boulevard Walk of Fame. (Don’t forget to see whose hand prints and shoe prints your own can fit into!) Universal Studios Hollywood is a place for families to visit and gain a special movie effect experience like no other. Of course, there are popular amusement parks for the kids all within a very short distance from Los Angeles. Visiting Disneyland, Magic Mountain, or Knott’s Berry Farm will be nothing but fun when the family is riding in a spacious 2008 Toyota Sienna rental van, where children can be spaced far enough apart to avoid arguments.

What family vacation to Los Angeles would be complete without visiting the Los Angeles Zoo? Children will love participating in the Animal Encounters program that allows up close interaction with the animal residents of the zoo. Another family hot spot while visiting Los Angeles is the Aquarium of the Pacific, located just south of LA. The kids will love being up close to the shark exhibit, and even parents will “ooh” and “awe” over the jellyfish and other marine life exhibits. This aquarium is also home to a very rare dragon fish.

Museums of great interest for families visiting Los Angeles include the infamous Wax Museum and the Page Museum at the La Brea Tar Pits. Children will find both of these places fun and educational, but the best museum to take a family to would be the California Science Center. Offering interactive fun the entire family will enjoy, the CSC is home to many fun and challenging activities and exhibits. Here the family can also enjoy watching, rather: experiencing, a movie at the Imax theatre. You can’t forget about the Peterson Automotive Museum, where even the big kids (ahem, dad) will appreciate being up close and personal to many famous cars. Yes, this includes the Bat-Mobile!

Once dad has visited the Bat-Mobile at the Peterson Automotive Museum, it will mom’s turn to enjoy the many opportunities of shopping in Los Angeles. Fortunately, when you rent a van in Los Angeles there will be plenty of room for the purchases mom makes at Beverly Center, Melrose Avenue, or even on (gasp) Rodeo Drive.

When you rent a van in Los Angeles, you can travel a short distance to the Santa Monica Pier filled with family fun. Even in an 8 passenger rental van there will be room to return with shells and other beach souvenirs collected by the children. Further south you can reach Zuma Beach, the Pacific Palisades, or Manhattan Beach for a full day of swimming. Perhaps you can even attempt surfing! In any case, affordable LA van rentals ensure that your family vacation, no matter what you do with it, will run smoothly and comfortably, hassle free!
