The Original Los Angeles Farmer’s Market & Miracle Mile Group Tour
Los Angeles is home to many hidden gems that offer a different kind of allure. Against the towering skyscrapers and bustling streets lies our newest group tour destination — the Los Angeles Farmer’s Market and Miracle Mile area.
A Slice of History at the Los Angeles Farmer’s Market
The LA Farmer’s Market, a beloved institution that dates back to 1934, is a living testament to the city’s turn of the century charm. What began as a simple gathering of local farmers selling fresh produce has blossomed into a bustling marketplace that marries the old and the new.
As your group tour strolls through the charming stalls, you can’t help but feel a connection to the past. The sights and smells of the market lend itself to nostalgia – the smell of fresh coffee brewing, and the colorful displays of fruits and vegetables at each stand. The appeal lies in the juxtaposition of history and modernity, making it a quintessential Los Angeles tour.
The Arts are Alive and Well on the Miracle Mile
Just moments away from the Farmer’s Market is the Miracle Mile, an area brimming with artistic and cultural treasures. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is the crown jewel of this neighborhood. As your group tour approaches the museum, you can’t help but be mesmerized by Chris Burden’s iconic “Urban Light” installation—a collection of vintage streetlights that stand tall like sentinels guarding the city’s creative spirit. This is a FAVORITE photo op for guests.
LACMA is a testament to human creativity and expression. Don’t forget to snap a photo with the iconic “Levitated Mass” sculpture that seems to defy gravity, sparking curiosity and wonder.
For those who enjoy retail therapy, Miracle Mile AND the Farmer’s Market area have an array of boutique shops, vintage stores, and department stores. Wander along Wilshire Boulevard, and you’ll stumble upon one-of-a-kind finds that will satisfy ANY taste. From unique fashion pieces to quirky home decor, the Miracle Mile is a shopper’s paradise.
