Walking Palm Springs "Twin Palms" Private Tour

Aperçu

For 2 hours, enjoy a private, guided stroll through the charming and historic "Twin Palms Estates" residential neighborhood in Palm Springs, California and its jewel-like array of 1950s mid-century modern home designs - many featuring original, iconic "butterfly-style" rooflines. You'll hear how this groundbreaking development was a first as well as insight about architect William Krisel's extraordinary vision.

Plus, we'll see former residences of several famous personalities, including Debbie Reynolds and Ray Bradbury.

Great tour about the local architecture and some history of the area. This is not a celebrity tour as such. Walking around the Twin Palm neighborhood was very informative.

Thank you! As we agreed, you don’t need to be an architect to engage with the wonderful homes on this tour. I enjoyed our morning together.
