DESCRIPTION
What’s not to love about Hollywood & LA right? The scenery, the beaches, the glitz, the glamour…
Our programme here, as with most can be fully customized to suit – HOWEVER – we recommend using public transport on this one as a. we can get better accommodation in town, and b. have you ever been stuck in LA traffic?! Not a good use of your time!
We can easily tailor this to suit IT & business studies students also, but subtracting some entrances & excursions for Silicon Valley and company show-rounds.This programme leaves very few LA stones unturned when it comes to ‘doing it all’…don’t say we didn’t warn you!
