Useful Tips
- Buy a TAP card online before arrival to skip the ticket kiosk line and enjoy discounted fares
- Check the Metro app for real‑time train arrivals; Pico’s platform is short, so a quick board is essential
- Carry a reusable water bottle—Los Angeles can be hot, and many nearby cafés will refill it for free
