$270
A head, just moving around
Rides are a real line here. Stay in one neighborhood.
Nine people need several cars each time they move, so a weekend planned inside one area, such as West Hollywood or Santa Monica, keeps the rides line down. Metro fares cap at $5 a day where a line fits the plan.
03
The four numbers that move a Los Angeles bachelorette party bill
Revelwick estimates of how four choices change the per head figure.
Hotels, dinner and bars within a walk of each other cut most of the rides line.
A ride is $1.75 with a $5 daily cap, and the E Line reaches Downtown Santa Monica.
A day trip up the coast adds rides and a long day. Choose it only if the beach is the point.
Book dinner in the neighborhood you are staying in.
