Choose the Beverly Hills day you want.
Use this city guide to turn a headline or a saved place into a plan. Start with one priority—shopping, a meal, art or a walk—then use the guides below to connect nearby stops without filling every hour.
First visit: landmarks and a walk
Our Beverly Hills afternoon itinerary connects the Beverly Hills Sign and Lily Pond, Rodeo Drive and Beverly Cañon Gardens. Use it as a flexible route, with time for photos and a meal. Choose fewer stops if you have a reservation or want a slower pace.
Shopping: make Rodeo Drive your starting point
The Rodeo Drive shopping guide explains the shopping district and how to plan around it. Browse first, then decide which stores merit more time. For openings, fashion and hospitality updates, check Beverly Hills style and hotel news before your visit.
A quieter plan: parks and public art
Use our parks and public art guide for an outdoor alternative to a shopping day. The City’s visitor directory also links to public art and historic-property walking tours. Check access details for each stop rather than assuming every garden or historic interior has the same opening hours.
Food first: lunch, dinner or a hotel stay
Compare locations and visit priorities in the restaurant guide, then look through recent dining news for openings and special experiences. Staying overnight? The hotel guide helps you think through location, transport and the kind of stay you want before booking.
Where should I start when I arrive?
The Beverly Hills Visitor Center is at 9400 South Santa Monica Boulevard, Suite 102, in the Golden Triangle. Its official page lists current hours, nearby parking and public restrooms. Read our parking guide before driving in, and check posted restrictions at your chosen facility.
