The following are my favorite free day trips in Los Angeles to take clients on. Pack a lunch and enjoy the day!

1. Griffith Park- Griffith park is one of the largest parks in LA. Bring a picnic with the clients and if everyones up for it, maybe a quick hop to the zoo would be a good idea.

2. The Beach- Better go quick cause the summers almost over.  The beach is also a great place to have a picnic. Encourage clients to fly kites, or build sand castles. The Beach is a win situation for larger groups.

3. The Getty- Let everyone be an art connoisseur for the day. Enjoy the gardens and maybe go to one of the galleries. Museums are a great place to take clients because it gives one a sense of inclusion in society.

4. Palisades Park- Another beach day your home should consider. This beautiful park overlooking the ocean is right next to the pier and the Third Street Promenade. Grab some Frisbees and enjoy the day!

5. Sepulveda Basin Wildlife Reserve-  In Van Nuys there is a place where you’d never guess you were in the valley. Great bird watching and walks that everyone will enjoy.
