California is America’s top tourist destination with year round beautiful weather, outdoor activities, stunning scenery and the cultural attractions. A car rental trip through San Francisco down to Los Angeles is popular as there is always something happening and also something to do.

The Golden Gate is perhaps the world’s most photographed bridge with a walk across first thing in the morning proving simply stunning. A short boat trip across the water you can get to the Rock, or Alcatraz, one of the most famous prisons in the world. There is also the Museum of Modern Art, Coit Tower and Lombard Street and across the bay there is the renowned Berkeley University Campus.

A trip by car hire in California down the coast to Los Angeles and all that it has to offer is well worthwhile. The shopping mecca of the rich and famous of Rodeo Drive and Beverley Hills is definitely worth a visit.

Whether its celebrity spotting in Hollywood or a walk down the Walk of Fame where many celebrities have had their handprints immortalised in the walk or a trip to Universal Studios to catch a glimpse of movie making there is always something to do in California.

Up in north California you could find a contrast with the mountain lakes, the Redwood National Park and the scenic drive with cheap car hire in California down the Pacific Coast Highway. From the Napa Valley, world famous wine making area, to the National Parks including Yosemite National Park; there is such diverse and varied attractions in California.
