Bus to Los Angeles

As one of the largest cities in the United States, Los Angeles is a popular bus destination from nearly every corner of the country. It has two primary bus stations that serve as the destination for these routes - Union Station and Los Angeles Greyhound Station. While nearly every major city in America seems to have a regular route that provides service to Los Angeles, some of the most popular routes come from within California - Sacramento, San Francisco, San Diego, and Oakland. Other western locations also have frequent and popular bus routes, such as Las Vegas, Nevada and Seattle, Washington. There are also popular bus lines that cross the country to reach LA, coming from major east coast cities like New York City, Washington, D.C. and Boston.

Amtrak to Los Angeles

Amtrak is one of the primary operators for buses to Los Angeles, often using a combination of trains and buses for longer journeys - especially those originating in the eastern United States. Amtrak routes use Union Station in Los Angeles as the endpoint for journeys arriving in this city, whether it is via train or bus. The buses arrive at Patsaouras Transit Plaza, which is attached to the east side of Union Station. This station was previously known as Gateway Transit Plaza.

Greyhound to Los Angeles

Greyhound is another company that operates buses to Los Angeles, but uses the Los Angeles Greyhound Station as its primary endpoint instead of Union Station. Unlike Amtrak, the Greyhound routes are only available as bus transit.
