Wonderful art museum with knowledgeable staff and beautiful garden! If you need to sip in everything and relax after the tour, the restaurant is an excellent choice! The view of Los Angeles from Getty centre to me is the best. 360 degree panoramic view with beautiful gardens of variety of flowers, cacti and fruit tree with plenty of place to sit. Highly recommended!

Car parking is relatively expensive (I was driving solo) but the entry is free so that more than makes up for it. Large secure underground car parking. Easy to miss the turn off on the freeway so pay attention and be near the lane to turn off (and not the fast lane). Cafe was also really good. I was slightly disappoint in the art, but look, that’s just personal taste.

This is a wonderful museum to visit. You can easily spend 4 hours in the museum and then another 2 just relaxing in the surrounding gardens and taking pictures. It is free but a reservation through their website is highly recommended as it can get quite busy. The parking fee is 20 dollars.

The Getty Center has their routine down pat. I arrived just before 9:30am and the garage was not yet open. They had me pull off to the side with other cars that were early. At 9:30 on the nose they opened and we were directed in. I parked and got into a huge elevator with other people. You are directed to a roped line area for security checks and to wait for the tram. I was on the first tram up. We arrived about 10 minutes before the door opened, so this gave me time to go look at the central garden (really cool) and some of the outside artwork. When the doors opened, I headed to information to find out where the art I wanted to see was and was directed to the West building. I saw the impressionists I was interested in, to include Van Gogh’s Irises. I was also surprised to discover they had tow JMW Turner’s and a couple of unique Rodin’s. I then spent a little time going through two of the other building before taking the tram back down and heading over to the Villa. Be sure if you are going to both locations on the same day to stop by the parking office to get a voucher for free parking at the Villa, saves you $20 and makes visiting much more reasonable.

The gardens are beautiful and the tram going up is pretty cool in my opinion. The galleries themselves are not the most spectacular I've seen, but for the price of nothing, it is quite nice. Also know that parking is $20 and they will not except any walk ins unless you came by Metro bus.

This museum is like a small scale version of the Louvre. It has a little bit of everything and is not so big that you get overwhelmed. They also have changing exhibits. They have great staff and the outside seating was great for lunch! Would recommend to anyone looking for a museum experience in a trip to Los Angeles!

Really impressed with the size and quality of things offered here for both nature and art lovers. The service is also great. When we arrived there, the monorail was down temporarily so they offered shuttle bus service, but a few hours later the monorail was back in service so we got to try both types of transportation. Also watched a beautiful sunset, which pushed the rating to the top.

One of my favorite museums in the world 🌎! Van Gogh, Rubens, Rembrandt, Goya, Monet, Manet, Gauguin, Cezanne, Bronzino, all of these famous painters in such a well structured arrangement and the entrance is free. Parking costs 20$.

The building is modern on the outside, but is classical in the interior. It has artwork dating to the renaissance era, and paintings all the way to the 2000s. It has beautiful sculptures, glamorous paintings, innovative photos from the 21st century, and awe-inspiring views.

Amazing exhibition of artifacts from throughout the world. Art to appeal to anyone. The buildings were airy and open and ultra- modern. Free admission ( which is indeed rare) allowed people from all areas of society to enjoy the exhibitions. The tram available to take art lovers to the museum was invaluable as it allowed those with limited mobility to enjoy the exhibitions. The cafes provided tasty and reasonably priced food. Overall, a fantastic experience.
