the Rubicon Project Reviews

Great place to visit. You will enjoy yourself of you're a tourist or a local. So much to see so make sure you give yourself enough time to take our all in. They have a great cafe and restaurant but there is also amazing food to try in the surrounding area.

A great place to visit considering it's completely free! However if you're parking here by car you'll have to pay 20 dollars for the pleasure, which is completely worth it!

Very beautiful grounds and great art that is there all the time. We had a nice time exploring the revolving exhibits as well. Very well put together museum. Rather crowded for the holiday

Fantastic view! Majority of their exhibits are worth it.

I moved to L.A. on the 4th of July, started of this journey with a bang and this is the most photogenic landmark I've been to yet.

Awesome Museum with a lot of great Art! The Architecture of the buildings, the Garden and the view of LA is Beautiful!!!

I loved each gallery and the architecture. Plan to stay a while.

Beautiful architecture, nice gardens and wonderful pieces of art.

Superb facilities for some of the best art in the world

I never know who half the artists are when I go here, but that's because I'm a cashier from a convenience store in rural Montana. The galleries and grounds are great, the work is incredible (always), and I find myself constantly inspired and amazed at the level of quality of the exhibits. Also, I saw the writer Jim Harrison there and we had lunch together, for some strange reason. Cool, man.

My grandma loved going here. She passed away few days after my visit here-months ago.

The Getty is so peaceful. It been so long since I went there.

It's good place to visit, there are lots of paintings and sculptures.

Really what can I say? It's a beautiful museum, with a beautiful courtyard and a gorgeous view! Parking is actually remarkably easy, and the tram is always fun!

Absolutely gorgeous art and architecture, with a great audio self tour and magically free for all!

Must go, and give yourself plenty of time. This place is wonderful from every aspect, exceptionally managed, this space, architecture, exhibits and tours are delightful. Remarkably it is free (including the many offered tours), parking is $20 and there s a shuttle to go up to the center. Love this place.

One of my favourite places. Art, gardens and architecture. What more can I ask for!

Lots of stairs, great exhibitions. Cafe too expensive.

Took my girlfriend here for Valentines day and she loved it

Entirely amazing and enjoyable. If I lived in LA, I'd be a regular - there are so many different vistas and wats to experience it, plus the union of gorgeous outside places designed for gathering separating the individual wings makes it easy to rest eyes and mind on sculpture, water, hillsides, trees, horizon, gardens, shapes created by the unique architecture of the Getty itself. Free, except parking. Don't miss this experience!

Greatly art, great architecture, absolutely amazing museum. Unbelievably, while there is a charge for parking, admission is free. Restaurant was also quite good! Even the views outside the museum are spectacular. What a great gift to the community.

If you love authentic, historical,pieces of of art then this is the place to go and unwind.

A great family museum good for school trips and summer vacation

This is bordering on a tourist trap. Almost empty, the mod buildings force you around and up and down (handicapped beware), not to mention the gardens. Getting up requires you to park and take the cable car, which means a lot of queueing, or else walk up the driveway sidewalk. Again, mod in the Gruen sense. Could do with a decent public connection with the rest of LA, and some art.

Getty Center is amazing place, the views from the Getty are spectacular. The museum is well maintained.

The Getty is amazing! I went on a rainy day so the view wasn't all there, but it definitely had a special beauty to it. The art was good, especially the vintage French pieces.

Great art and killer views of the surrounding cities. Gardens below and a huge campus to explore lots of great art.

We went to this place because of a recommendation from a friend.
It was absolutely worthwhile to spend the whole day there.

Was really a fun experience seeing the Getty at sunset and after dark! It has a completely different ambiance that made the visit even more special.
It can be a little of a wait to get into the tram and uphill into the Getty. Crowds sometimes are a bit big but I can't say it ruined the experience.
There's so much to look at that you may need to go back for another visit!

Artwork was amazing. It was my first time at the Getty and honestly it wasnt enough time the day i was there. Just too much to look at, such a wonderful anf beautiful place i highly recommend visiting

Great for kids and adults. You can easily spend all day here.

Expansive museum with incredible views of the city. Nice variety of collection you can browse for FREE! Free audio tapes, too. Highly recommended visit.

Beautiful building, gardens, and impressive collections.

THE PLACE WAS TRULY FANTASTIC !! THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE MOST COMPLETE MUSEUM I HAVE EVER BEEN TO AT ANY POINT IN MY LIFE PERIOD!!+

Stunning grounds, facility, and galleries. Could spend days there; can't wait to return.

Amazing art and great adventure for the entire family.

Great museum in LA forma free pass. The view, the architecture, the gardens and the exhibitions are incredible. It is a place you must visit if you go to LA.

Really nice and interesting place . U can waching pictures, sculptures, enjoy beautiful view

The Getty Museum is something to see.
There's a lot of "treasures" to oooohhh and awe over.
Sneak a packed lunch in tho because the food isn't very good. Not everyone likes gourmet food.

First time visiting, very impressed with the galleries and buildings! I was really happy that I could get up close to so many works of art. One star removed for the cafe. The staff were a little unfriendly and the dining area was messy.

Very beautiful museum in terms of the architecture and exhibits. Has a few permanent exhibits as well as rotating one. Note this is not close to the Getty Villa exhibit. Also if you decide to walk up to the museum entrance make sure to check your bags at the base.

Dont think it's a place to take young children who are aware based on my 8 year old telling me that its inappropriate for his 6 year old sister'' because theres Statues of naked people "

Even if they didn't have one of the best public art collections in the west. It would be worth visiting for the just to appreciate what architect Richard Meier created with the property and the stunning vistas he created. Photo opportunities on par with Griffith Observatory. The landscaping and grounds are enchanting and a great escape from the bustle of the city below. Go early to beat crowds, or late for the best lighting and sunset photos. Totally free also, except for parking which runs $10-$15. However you can pay once for parking, at it will cover both parking at the Getty Center in Brentwood and the Getty Villa in Pacific Palisades if you do them both the same day. Try to go while they still have the Louis XIV tapestry collection on loan from France through 5/1/16, absolutely stunning.

Amazing art complex in a beautiful setting. There is a train that takes visitors up the hill to the museum. There was an issue with it when I went and we had to take a shuttle cart back down. Glad they had one. The setting in the hills and landscaped grounds are spectacular and the buildings are gorgeous. I found myself more interested in the buildings than the art. Had lunch in the cafe and that was nice. Definitely worth a visit for a few hours. Check their schedule and parking before you go.

Amazing museum. Hard to believe it is free. You do have to pay $15 to park but that is a bargain compared to what you get to see. If you really want to absorb everything get there early and plan to spend several hours.

Great gardens. Easy to navigate through the different showcases. I like the building that had some of John Paul Getty's old furniture and home decorations. I took a Lyft drive here and didn't have to pay for parking. That made up for the somewhat expensive Waters and bananas that I bought.

Serene and gorgeous place with breathtaking views! Parkings costs money and then a trolley takes you up the mountain to the museum. That being said, entrance into the museum is free of charge :) Lovely exhibits that I hear they change out every now and then?

If you like French rococo then you would like the south pavilion building. The top floor has a good view of the city too. Also I recommend going around the garden.

The Getty Art Museum is an art piece itself. If you are planning a visit do not short change yourself with time. The grounds are magnificent. There are breathtaking views everywhere. And the architecture has as many ways to view it as do the art pieces themselves. Even a whole day there will leave you wanting more. Parking is in the structure at the bottom of the hill the Getty sits on. From there you can walk an easy mile up or catch a free tram to the top. They run all day. Getty generously shared his collection with the public after his death. We are so much richer for his generosity. Be sure and stay for the sunset at the end of the day.

Worth visiting this museum if you are in LA. Very big museum indoor and out door there is an amazing view including a small garden to sit and walk around .

When you reach to the parking of Getty (uber or taxi) there is a tram that take you to the museum. It does get busy and there is no fee to enter the museum.

I ve spotted animals too from the museum (if you re lucky)

They have stores in the museum if you wish to buy things and also cafe and restaurants .

The Art is amazing the the building, view and garden is even better.

Stunning architecture and view of LA. Even if you don't want to go into the museum it is worth to visit for its nice outside area and great views of LA.

All the staff made sure to say hi and welcome you. The view of city and the gardens was amazing.

Free admission. Need to pay parking though. You can get an audio tour and need to go up through a tram (train). Really enjoyed the art experience

To learn our stuff we don't until we go great quiet place and experience..

Free, beautiful, and one of the most important places in LA to visit. Wonderful and historic art and artifacts and breathtaking architecture are combined with a breathtaking view of the city for an absolutely unforgettable museum.

Gorgeous, historic, and wonderful place to spend a couple hours to all day. Try and get there early as to being less people. Absolutely gorgeous at night also.

Great way to spend a rainy L.A. day. Really enjoyed it and the architecture of the building itself is spectacular with wonderful views of the city. I didn't even mind paying the $20.00 to park. Not bad for two people when entry into the museum is free.

Great views and spectacul garedens. I didn't get to see all of the galleries but what I saw was really well done. Parking and the tram ride may turn some off but it's worth it. I will be coming back.

Impressive on a huge scale. Not the easiest of places to get to though.

Interesting collections and architecture, free admission. Beware you may encounter school field trip groups during the week

The Getty is Los Angeles' iconic art museum for a reason - it's just absolutely the best. There are so many displays that it will take you all day to see everything. The museum architecture is an exhibit unto itself. If possible Uber or cab here; parking is not fun. I take all my out of town friends and family here and everyone is always impressed.

Stunning sites, awesome atmosphere and art, amazing architecture...all-around fabulous museum

Definitely a must-see spot in LA. In addition to the amazing collection of art and antiques (particularly European masters from the 17th, 18th and 19th Centuries), they usually have good traveling exhibits and the gardens are delightful. Perched on a hillside, the panoramic view spans from the Pacific to Santa Monica to Westwood and, on a clear day, Griffith and downtown. Admission is free and there is only a modest $15 fee per car to park in the underground garage, then a short tram ride up to the museum.

First time visit. What an amazing place and collection of art. Spent almost a whole day there and enjoyed a fabulous dinner and wine at the restaurant. We'll be back for sure!

Best. Museum. Ever.

Every time someone from out-of-town comes to visit, we take them here for an afternoon. We've been back about a half dozen times and the Getty never fails to impress.

With sprawling grounds, historical rooms, art beyond your wildest imagination, gardens, a tram ride, tons of benches and water fountains, and even complimentary umbrellas if it starts to rain, you tend to forget that there's also an incredible view of Los Angeles.

They offer free audio tours and the staff there is the absolute best! They love their jobs and it shows!

Amazing place, the arquitecture and gardens are beautiful. There are free tours to enjoy this cultural place. Stunning building!

Amazing place. Must see in LA. Best of all it is free.
