From the moment of our arrival my daughter with a disability was treated like royalty. Tim welcomed us and made the whole tour accessible and comfortable for all of us. My daughter has never felt so "included" as Tim made her feel. From physical help to priority seating, Tim made this a memorable and most joyous day. We wholeheartedly reccommend... More

Interesting tour from start to finish. A historical overview of the area with lots of opportunities to view the homes owned or previously occupied by famous people. The driver was knowledgable and personable. The real date shake in the middle of the tour was delicious.

I took the celebrity tour over a dozen years ago and thought it was good then. I booked the Sinatra on Saturday tour this time thinking there would be more of an emphasis on Sinatra - there was not. First, all of the prepaid materials told you to be there 15 minutes before the departure time of 9 a.m. but... More

Ann was our guide. She seems to know everything about who has lived in Palm Springs. There was an emphasis on Frank Sinatra, but we learned about many of the celebs who have and still live in P.S. Some of the houses were at street level, and could be seen close up. She did a nice job of explaining everything,... More

This was an enjoyable tour for me and my teenage daughter and a perfect way to spend about 2 hours on a Monday morning. Learned so much about the celebrities love for and influence in the development of Palm Springs. Enjoyed the beauty of the town and the real estate. Was introduced to the delicious and nutritious world of dates.

On our first day in Palm Springs we decided to do the Celebrity tour of the homes of the many famous movie personalities who lived in the area. Our tour guide was a lot of fun and made the tour worthwhile regaling us with jokes and insider information. Another must see attraction in Palm Springs --which Tim should have mentioned--is... More

Driver/Guide kept us entertained with fun star stories as well as facts about the area such as wind farms and fig farming: includes stop for a fig shake . Would repeat this tour as there was so much that I don't remember it all.
