Daily Itinerary

Day 1 Welcome to the Desert

Fly from Sacramento to Palm Springs and begin your adventure with lunch at Grand Central, a stylish eatery located in the heart of downtown. Afterwards, enjoy a leisurely hour to explore the shops, galleries, and walkable charm of Palm Canyon Drive. This afternoon, choose between two enriching options: 

  1. A city tour of Palm Springs highlighting the area's celebrity history, mid-century architecture and hidden gems

   2. A visit to the Palm Springs Art Museum, featuring contemporary and Native American art, desert photography and sculpture gardens

Check in at your comfortable hotel with time to freshen us before heading out for an early group dinner. Then it's off to enjoy one of the area's stunning Christmas Lights experiences: Either the Magic of Lights drive-through at the Empire Polo Club or a festive walk-through display. Cap off your evening with a stop for sweet treats - ice cream or gelato - before returning to the hotel. Dunes Hotel - 2 nights (L, D) 

Day 2 Peaks, Pasta & Performance

This morning, begin the day with a tour of celebrity homes and sites in the area. Many stars call or have called the Palm Springs area home. Next ride the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway up Chino Canyon to a mountaintop lodge for lunch with sweeping desert views. After descending, enjoy afternoon downtime or a second chance to browse the boutiques downtown. Tonight, we dine at Mama Gina's, a local favorite known for classic Italian fare and warm hospitality. Then it's showtime! (FB, L, D) 

Day 3 Desert Discoveries & Departure

Enjoy a morning tour of the Palm Springs Windmill Farm, offering a behind-the-scenes look at renewable energy in the desert. After lunch, you have a choice. Another natural learning adventure, heading out on an exciting Jeep Tour of the San Andreas Fault, where expert guides take you through shallow canyons and the geological drama that shaped California. Or you can take a couple of hours to shop in downtown Palm Springs. Lots of eclectic stores to help you find the perfect Christmas gift. If you choose the shopping option, you will receive a $135.00 credit for the Jeep tour. Return to the airport in the late afternoon for your flight home, bringing with you warm memories of a desert holiday done right. (FB)
