While it is possible to get around using public transportation, it is recommended to rent a car for convenience and flexibility. Rental cars can be found for around $30-$40 per day, and a travel time of 15-30 minutes can be expected to reach each destination. Gas prices in the area are around $3.80 per gallon.
If you have more time, consider visiting the K-Ming Museum and the Oldest Home in El Monte. For those with less time, choose one or two destinations from each day's itinerary. Remember to check the opening and closing hours before setting out to secure visiting time, also some attractions are seasonal, so plan ahead if traveling on particular dates.
