How long is the drive from San Diego to Burbank?|188465

My family and I will be visiting San Diego around Thanksgiving. We decided to book a Warner Brothers Tour in Burbank and we must be there by 10 am on a Tuesday morning. What time should we leave our hotel in Old Town, San Diego. Any recommended routes?

It is about 135 miles more or less. At time traffic can be very bad in Burbank. It would be best to allow plenty of time, more than enough. If it were I, I would allow 4 hours just to make sure; but I am a pessimist. One time on a Sunday no less I got stuck on the Ventura Freeway north of LA and did not move for an hour. I finally got off at the first exit I came to. It was terrible.
Just head up I-5 until you get to Burbank. Take 134 west to exit 3 then to W. Riverside Dr. heading west. It is about 1 mile down Riverside after the exit.

Traffic along that I-5 corridor is highly unpredictable. I would recommend taking commuter rail between San Diego _ Burbank, the ride is nice, the service dependable and the fares reasonable. Start by taking a Coaster rail line from Old Town Station to Oceanside for $5, then take a Metrolink train to LA union Station for about $11 and then another Metrolink directly to Burbank station for about $4, a short distance to the warner Brothers Studio. Additionally, for a bit more cost Amtrak offers direct service between San Diego _ Burbank on their Pacific Surfliner Train. Good Luck!

It_s a pretty straightforward drive.

2 hours up Interstate 5 and then another 4 miles on the 134.

With that area and traffic on a weekday morning, I_d leave AT LEAST 3 hours beforehand. That_ll give you time for traffic, parking, and in case you get lost.

It_s about 131 miles drive. If you have to be there in the morning you should be prepared to see major traffic. According to google maps the ride takes 2hrs 7 minutes, and 3hrs 10 minutes in traffic.

How bad is traffic going into las vegas from LA on new years eve?|188946

I get off work in la at about 8ish and I_m hoping if i book it i can make it there before 12. Anyone know REALISTICALLY how bad the traffic is?

The traffic may be a little worse than normal (you might just make it).
But also remember the traffic will be bad when you GET to Vegas because the strip will be blocked off/closed.

The hotels however require a two night minimum stay from 12/30 -01/01 so you will probably miss the major rush from Los Angeles by a day.

GOOD LUCK!!!

I just came home from las vegas
I leave at 6 in the morning and their is some traffic every one wants to go to las vegas and plus it takes 6 hours to get their.i usuallty leave at midnight and get their at 5 o_clock [cause theirs no traffic in the early hours].
But call the casino ASAP to make sure their is a room for you.
i book my casino 2 months before i go.

Traffic should not be a problem that late in the evening heading to Vegas. You will miss most of the LA rush hour traffic and once you get to San Bernardino, it_s smooth sailing from there on. Most people that are making that trip will be leaving LA at noon.

Traffic will be bad. but with all the highway patrol out, you may not make it in 4hrs, traffic in here is bumper to bumper and some streets may be closed. good luck..

It will still be hard for you to make it in four hours as highway partol will be out in force.
