Birthday treat in LA

Ariel88 · 14 Jan 18, 11:03 AM

On my actual birthday we’ll be checking out of our hotel in Anaheim and leaving for LA. I had intended to do the Warner Bros Studio tour that morning and then the usual LA sights (Walk of fame, Chinese theatre and Griffith Park). Is there anything special people could recommend doing as a birthday treat? Whether it’s a tour, an experience or any restaurant recommendations would be great! It doesn’t matter how cheap or expensive it may be as I’m pretty open on the budget.

Meal at the Regent Beverly Wilshire? Eye wateringly expensive but you are treated like royalty! We did breakfast and it was a fabulous morning.

Helicopter tour - we did a night flight from Burbank and it was amazing! You can do daytime if you prefer. Ours was 30 mins and we flew over the Hollywood sign / observatory, downtown, Beverly Hills and Hollywood.

We also rented a plane from Torrance airfield for an hour. You have the option to fly the plane if you want which is fun. The pilot we had was fabulous and we saw so much. Long Beach and the Queen Mary was a highlight. Also a swoop over the massive mansions in Beverly Hills and Bel-Air. He took us back up the coast and also right over LAX (didn’t think that would be allowed!) and it was fascinating see it from the air.
