Ontario Mills Outlet Mall

Could someone please tell me how long it would take us to drive to Ontario Mills Mall from our hotel in Anaheim(Marriott Anaheim)

Thanks

It would take about 40 minutes without traffic, a little longer with traffic.

Ontario Mills Outlet Mall

fotinicanada... it took us one and half hour to get there from our hotel in anaheim! The mall itself is awesome, but if I was to do it all over again (hindsight is 20/20).. I would have opted for the tour offered to Santee Alley (ground zero for designer knock offs), then to Citadel (sp?) Outlet. It is a 10 hour tour I noticed ';after'; we got back from Ontario Mills.

IMHO if you like designer ';stuff'; Santee Alley is a MUST SEE! I would have never known about it until someone mentioned it while waiting for family to go on a ride in Disneyland.

Is this designer place close to anaheim? when you say designer do you mean big brand name clothing at higher end stores? ie macys. coach etc?

Santee Alley is near Hollywood, and is just as the name says, an alley about 6 blocks long packed with vendors with everything from Chanel, Gucci bags to Dolce %26amp; Gabana sunglasses (which I got for $5), oh the list goes on and on... just google Santee Alley and see what other%26#39;s say. It was fun!

My 12 year old daughter brought home a Chanel bag for her friend ($30) and bought 3 Baby Phat t%26#39;s for $15.... It is quite a hike from anaheim, you pretty much have to make a day of it (Hollywood, Walk of Fame, Citadel Outlet Mall)

Note that nearly everything ';designer'; thing you will see in Santee Alley is a counterfeit knockoff.

If you want authentic designer clothes and accessories head to an outlet mall.

Can one get to the Ontario Outlet mall by any public transportation?

I say buy the real thing or if you dont want to spend the money on a real authentic then buy something more in your budget ie nine west. or esprit etc.

I was in bahammas and they have a straw market and they have all the designer bags there that are knock offs. Why pretend you got a high end bag when you dont. Buying a high end bag comes with some warranty on some of the parts zippers etc and you pay more for this.

Agreed. I cannot stand fakes and knockoffs.

So did you say there was a tour from Anaheim that took you to both Santee Alley and Citadel???? What tour company and how do you get to it? Thanks.

Oh... don%26#39;t get me wrong, I totally agree in you get what you pay for, but hey for a 10 or 12 year old whatever, if it looks like Chanel and she ';thinks'; it%26#39;s designer, who cares, she%26#39;ll outgrow it or be sick of it soon enough ! Like I said, it%26#39;s all ';fun'; not to be taken seriously!

The tour that offers the LA Shopping Extravaganza is through Southern California Grayline. We found the pamphlet in our hotel lobby. For $32.00 per person you get transportation to Santee Alley%26#39;s open air market then on return to Anaheim you stop at Citadel Outlets.

IMHO, I would take this tour because I didn%26#39;t like the traffic tie ups and even with our GPS, Santee Alley isn%26#39;t the easiest place to find!
