Walking The Wells

Back by popular demand, let's enjoy some fresh morning air on an inspiring guided architectural walking tour of the storied El Dorado Palms neighborhood (1957-2023), the first along with Rancho Palmeras to establish Indian Wells. This informative, surprising walking tour comprises a comfortable 2-mile loop. Visit inside 4 homes and see unique exteriors, and landscape designs, of others. This is a great way to experience some of the newly discovered hidden architectural gems of Indian Wells, like Desert Bel Air Estates, and view homes designed by notable architects including William Cody, Charles Doty, Charles Du Bois, Sean Lockyer, Lance O’Donnell, John Outcault, and John Walling. You might even meet one or two of the architects! Includes souvenir map and descriptive publication.
