Transfer from Burbank Airport to Griffith Park

The transfer leaves Burbank Airport and joins Hollywood Way, which feeds onto Interstate 5 (Golden State Freeway), with State Route 134 as an alternative. The freeway passes close to Griffith Park, and the hillside edges of the park come into view on approach. Once inside, Riverside Drive carries traffic past the Los Angeles Zoo, the Autry National Center and Griffith Observatory, with Elysian Park and the Silver Lake Reservoir area nearby.

Your driver meets you at the arrivals baggage-hall exit of the terminal where your flight lands, holding a name sign, and tracks your flight in real time. Allow extra time during weekday rush hours, when the Interstate 5 approach often slows and off-peak estimates of about 14 to 20 minutes can stretch past 30. Parking is enforced daily, Monday to Friday 12pm to 10pm and weekends 10am to 10pm, so a drop-off at the Observatory's red-marked pickup zone just past the horseshoe driveway is the practical choice, since vehicles cannot park there at any time.

Public transit is the main alternative: buses 222, 164 and 296 run via Hollywood Way, but Moovit estimates about an hour and eight minutes, with transfers and waits. A taxi takes around 14 minutes according to Rome2Rio but typically costs $35 to $45 and offers no fixed price, while a private transfer with a fixed price of USD 73.94 covers the whole trip with all local charges included.
