Compare Campervan & RV Hire in Los Angeles

Los Angeles was claimed by the Spanish in 1542, along with the rest of the area of Southern California, and the city was officially established in 1781 by the Spanish government. During the Mexican war of Independence, the Mexicans took control Los Angeles in 1821 – but at the end of the Mexican-American war in 1848 the US government had taken back Los Angeles, and it’s been a part of the US ever since.

When California became a state in 1850 Los Angeles was one of its biggest, and when oil was discovered in the 1890s the city grew. The Los Angeles aqueduct (a major historical landmark you’ll want to visit) was established in 1913 and allowed the city to grow even larger, and with the advent of “moving pictures” in the early 1900s, Los Angeles and Hollywood established itself as the global headquarters for the television and film industry and it continues to be that today.

What are some of the best things to do with a Los Angeles campervan hire?

Home to multiple sports teams in all of the major sports leagues in the US today (including two new recent NFL football teams), you always have the opportunity to catch a game at any of the amazing Stadium in the city and just outside of the city limits.

Restaurants, nightlife, bars, and entertainment are a major part of the Los Angeles economy. The food scene in LA has been booming for years and years, and since this is such a major center for performance and the arts you’re going to have an opportunity to see not just amazing shows and productions, but also have the opportunity to bump into some of the world’s most famous celebrities, actors, and musicians as they make Los Angeles their home.

Museums and galleries are dotted all throughout Los Angeles, with plenty of opportunity to take in the arts. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (the largest museum of its kind west of the Mississippi) is a major attraction, and the art galleries along Gallery Grow bring millions and millions of people to Los Angeles every year.

Universal Studios in Hollywood is located in Los Angeles, and Disneyland isn’t that far outside of the LA downtown center. A variety of different celebrity tours can be taken advantage of to visit the homes of some of your favorite actors and actresses, and no stop to Los Angeles is complete without walking the Hollywood Walk of Fame or seeing the Hollywood Sign in all its glory.

The Pacific Ocean is just a stone’s throw away, giving you the opportunity to enjoy world-class surfing, sailing, fishing, or just beach cruising up and down the shores of the Pacific Ocean. There’s plenty of outdoor activities for those that want to get out of the city proper, and you’re always just a short trip away from some of the best skiing and kayaking to the east.

Las Vegas and San Diego aren’t too terribly far away, either, should you be thinking about making a weekend trip in visiting these amazing cities. Los Angeles is a real hub of activity, and you’ll never want things to do!

The climate in Los Angeles is just about as good as it gets, as the city and the surrounding area enjoys a Mediterranean climate. Temperatures are going to be right around 75°F to 85°F in the day pretty much all year round, with gentle breezes blowing in off of the Pacific that keeps everything nice and cool without ever feeling too humid, either.

At night, you can expect temperatures of between 58° and 68° or so, giving you the perfectly cool temperatures you need to sleep soundly so that you can get right back at all the fun and excitement in the morning while feeling totally refreshed!

You aren’t going to find much rain in Los Angeles all year round, that’s for sure, unless of course you are visiting between November and March when you might get a little bit of a sprinkle here and there. For the most part, Los Angeles enjoys early summer temperatures pretty much all year-round – which is exactly why so many people come here and then never leave!

While a lot of tourists are going to come to Los Angeles and stay at some of the world-famous hotels and resorts that this city calls her own, if you are going to be driving a campervan or an RV rental you’ll find plenty of places to park your vehicle as well without giving up any amazing amenities for access to anything Los Angeles has to offer.

Some of the RV/campervan parks you want to check out include:

• Balboa RV Park
• Walnut RV Park
• Golden Shore RV Resort
• Los Angeles North KOA
• Centennial Trailer Park
• Pacific Palisades Bowl

… And that’s just the tip of the iceberg!

There are literally dozens and dozens of places for you to stay when you are driving a campervan or RV in the city of Los Angeles. Not only is parking relatively simple and straightforward at any of these locations, but you’re also almost always going to be centrally located in LA (or just outside of downtown LA) so that you aren’t ever more than a quick drive from the middle of the city and anything you might want to do there.
