Overview

Discover the stories behind Wilshire Boulevard’s Miracle Mile on this engaging tour showcasing four remarkable museums. Your expert guide will lead you through their outdoor spaces, revealing the surprising connections between cars, art, film, and natural history in Los Angeles.

We begin at the La Brea Tar Pits, where you’ll step back in time to see active fossil digs and remains of Ice Age giants like woolly mammoths and giant sloths.

At LACMA, capture the perfect shot at “Urban Light,” LA’s most photographed landmark and learn about the largest art museum in the western United States.

Then, marvel at the Petersen Automotive Museum’s stunning collection, from rare prototypes to legendary Batmobiles, a true car enthusiasts dream!

Finally, we finish at the entrance of the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures, where you’ll get a taste of cinematic history and get to marvel at this historic Streamline Moderne landmark built in 1939 as a May Company department store.
