This wonderful “day tour” starts with an incredibly scenic drive from Las Vegas through the beautiful high deserts, dry lakes, mountain ranges, the geographic southern end of Death Valley, as well as amazing Mohave Yucca and Joshua Tree forests on our way to Los Angeles and the legendary Hollywood, California. (and for the technical buff, fabulous views of the new Ivanpah Solar Power facility at the Nevada-California state line) We stop for lunch at the beautiful Santa Monica Beach and Pier. When you hear the words “Southern California” you can’t help but think of the beaches of Santa Monica. Walk barefoot in the sand where David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson worked, the same location where Hollywood directors filmed the most watched television series of all time, “Baywatch.” This is the real California - Sun, Sand and Movie Stars, this is what California is all about. See “Bubba Gump’s Shrimp Company” and take a romantic stroll on the beach in the warm California sun where you can put your toes in the beautiful blue Pacific Ocean. We drive through the famous Rodeo Drive shopping area, Santa Monica Boulevard and along the equally famous Sunset Strip, which has been the inspiration for many songs and movies. Our tour continues past Beverly Hills where many of our favorite stars live. Actors such as Tom Cruise, Madonna, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Lopez, Jack Nicholson and so many others live in the fabulous neighborhoods scattered throughout Beverly Hills. We stroll along Hollywood Boulevard’s Walk of Fame with the stars at our feet; find your favorite star and take a picture, see the ornate Chinese & Kodak (Dolby) Theaters (home of the Oscars), the hand prints of the stars in concrete, the famous Roosevelt Hotel (where stars are commonly seen) and a wonderful view of the iconic “Hollywood Sign” from the Patio of the Kodak Theater.
