A business trip in Van Nuys: What to see

If you’re on a business trip to LA, chances are you might either be landing in Van Nuys, or be based there. Not only is it considered a ‘gateway’ to greater LA, but it’s also home to one of the busiest international airports and a diverse range of hotels. However, rather than spending your entire time navigating between offices and your hotel room, it might be a good idea to get out and see the place!

The Japanese Garden

If you’re looking for somewhere to get a bit of peace of mind outside of stressful meetings and awkward introductions to new partners, then The Japanese Garden is the best place to go.

This tranquil park is highly recommended by locals and tourists alike and comes complete with a rushing waterfall and immaculately kept lawns. Their helpful website even gives you details on opening times and a taste of what the gardens will feel like.

A helicopter tour

If you’re traveling in style on this business trip, and have a client that needs impressing, a helicopter tour is one of the best ways to see Van Nuys and LA. These helicopter tours can take you around the jaw-dropping Malibu Mountains, California’s coastline and the infamous Hollywood sign. Seeing LA from above will give you a whistle-stop tour of your neighboring city like no other. If you want to arrive into Van Nuys itself in style, then booking Stratos Jets Charters to drop you in on your own schedule is the best way to visit this area of California.

Lake Balboa

Lake Balboa Park is the perfect way to spend the day if, at heart, you prefer the outdoors to the city.
