Bellingham shared a host of photos of the trip to Los Angeles, with two showing Alexander-Arnold alongside him.
They were also pictured on a rollercoaster together at a Six Flags theme park.
But an image that has surfaced on social media also revealed Alexander-Arnold, 25, to have signed a Real Madrid shirt during the holiday.
He could be seen writing on a young boy’s Los Blancos jersey, fuelling speculation surrounding his Liverpool future.
Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson previously attempted to convince Bellingham, 21, to join The Reds before he penned a deal with Real Madrid.
Since then, Alexander-Arnold and Bellingham have only grown closer and were best pals in the England camp throughout the Euros.
Bellingham leapt to the defence of Alexander-Arnold when the Liverpool man was being criticised for his performances in England’s midfield.
He said: “He makes it so easy for me because he can control the game so well defensively in that position.

“I know people talk a lot of rubbish but he’s so aggressive with that back to goal pressure and it really helped me as well because it meant I got a breather when he went out.
“I think we understand each other well with the ball, he wants to play positive all the time, he wants to play forward all the time.”
Yet despite Bellingham and Alexander-Arnold’s close relationship, SunSport understands the Liverpool man is “committed” to remaining at Anfield.
And Arne Slot‘s men are keen to tie him down to a bumper new contract.
A source connected to the club said: “Trent’s spoken to the new manager already.
“This took place before the Euros and they’re in touch now.
“They had a great conversation initially but the manager respected that he needed to focus on the tournament.
“Trent, like the rest of the squad, sees this as a new beginning and a fresh start and he is excited to get back to training to lay the foundations for a successful, new season.
“He is definitely committed for the season and a huge deal will be presented to him to stay beyond that.
“Everyone at the club has huge admiration for Trent and will be doing whatever it takes to keep him.
“He’s still got so much more to give.”
Alexander-Arnold has played 310 games for Liverpool, scoring 19 goals and assisting 81.
He has lifted the Premier League, Champions League, two Carabao Cups, FA Cup and Club World Cup since breaking through from the academy in 2016.
