1 WALK AMONG THE STARS ON HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD

One of the most famous sights in the city is the Walk of Fame, the 1.3 mile-long parade of pink stars set into the pavement on Hollywood Boulevard. Find the location of a specific celebrity star at walkoffame. com. Afterwards, pose for selfies outside the legendary Chinese Theatre, where actors such as Meryl Streep and Tom Cruise have their hand and footprints immortalised in the cement.

2 EAT LIKE THE DUKE AND DUCHESS OF SUSSEX

Rumour has it that Harry and Meghan are fans of the world-famous Cecconi’s, a modern Italian restaurant group that started in London. The LA branch sits at the corner of Melrose Boulevard in West Hollywood, so book a table and keep your eyes peeled for the couple. Also worth a visit is pizza restaurant Terroni on Beverly Boulevard, an import from Meghan’s old home of Toronto. For something lighter, try vegan Mexican restaurant Gracias Madre (graciasmadre.com) in West Hollywood, which is chic enough for any visiting celeb.

3 TOUR JENNIFER ANISTON’S NEIGHBOURHOOD

Jennifer Aniston famously lives in ritzy Bel-Air, in a $21-million mansion from where she occasionally posts on social media. For your best chance of peeking at this and other celebrity hideaways, sign up for an expert-led tour. Starline Tours (starlinetours.com) has run celebrity home tours for 90 years and will take you past historic sights including the Beverly Hills sign and Capitol Records Building, as well as homes such as Elton John’s and Justin Timberlake’s former mansion.
