Overview
Discover Los Angeles in a single unforgettable day.
Departing from Palm Springs, this full-day guided adventure takes you through the heart of LA — from the glitz of Beverly Hills to the iconic beaches of Santa Monica & Venice.
You’ll explore the city’s most famous landmarks, neighborhoods, and cultural hotspots, gaining a real sense of LA’s size & energy. Stroll down the Hollywood Walk of Fame, shop along world-famous Rodeo Drive, grab a bite in Beverly Hills, and relax by the Pacific Ocean as you take in the classic Southern California vibe.
Our flexible itinerary allows you to customize your stops — spend more time where you want, whether it’s people-watching on the Santa Monica Pier or snapping photos at the Hollywood Sign.
We depart Palm Springs at 9:00 AM and return around 9:00 PM (depending on traffic), traveling in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. If you’ve never been to Los Angeles, this tour is the perfect way to experience the city’s highlights in one incredible day.
