PALM SPRINGS INSIDER GUIDE
Make Today an Adventure
My mission is to help you to get the most out of your visits to Palm Springs, which is located in the Coachella Valley in Southern California, USA.
You can also expect to see day trips and even three-day trips that radiate out from Palm Springs to San Diego, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas. I trust you will find the tips, in italics, included in my blogs helpful. I have only written about subjects and events I have experienced myself.
