There are three trips you can book before you go - I've listed them below. You should be able to book them in resort too but there's a chance they might be booked up by then and prices may have changed a little. It's also worth knowing that you can save 10% by booking the three prebookable tours together before you fly. Please call us on 01858 581024 no later than five days before departure if you would like to do this.

The flight from Heathrow to San Francisco leaves at 13.20 on 4 Oct. You will fly back from Las Vegas at 13.00 on 14 Oct and arrive back at Heathrow at 10.05 GMT on 15 Oct.

Kind regards

Prebookable tours

Prebookable Aerial Tramway

Enjoy the breathtaking views of the Coachella valley as you rise to the San Jacinto Mountain Station, 8516 feet above sea-level. Rise up from the hot desert floor to a cool alpine region where you can walk through pine-scented forests or just sit back and enjoy the view. One of just three “Rotair” circular cable cars in the world, this tramway allows for spectacular 360 degree views on your way up as you gently “rotate” inside the circular cabin. Acclaimed as one of the greatest scenic experiences in southern California!

Half Day – Moderate Walking – Stunning Mountain Views

(£21.00)

Prebookable Palm Springs Tour

Palm Springs is a place of contrasts – a man-made city in one of nature’s harshest and most beautiful natural environments. For this favoured emerald-green retreat for the rich and famous actually lies in the midst of an arid desert! On this tour a knowledgeable local guide will show you the stars’ individually-designed retreats and regale you with tales of the Hollywood Set. A fascinating insight into how the other half lived back in the heydays of the Silver Screen. Yet beside the sprinkler-fed greens of the golf courses is the totally different, and equally fascinating, golden desert habitat that surrounds this playground oasis, which we will explore when we visit the Living Desert, a world-famous wildlife sanctuary for desert animals.

Half Day – Moderate Walking – Living Desert and Vintage Hollywood Glamour!

Prebookable Rat Pack

Acclaimed the world over, the continuing success of this long-running show is due to its talented performers paying tribute to the music and routines of those legendary American musicians - Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. Don’t miss what has now become a permanent part of the Las Vegas experience.
