I am a Los Angeles native. I have a zest for life and knack for adventure! I love to experience all of the gems that this beautiful city has to offer. Whether it is a day at the beach, local treks, the city attractions, Hollywood glamour, or taking in the splendor of Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, or the thrill of Las Vegas -- I will help you to experience the "wow" factor! After twenty years of the corporate grind, now that my youngest daughter is off to college, it is my time to pursue a career that I love! My passion for traveling has lead me to this new career as a professional tour guide. I have long been the go-to source for friends and family who want to have the adventure of a lifetime experiencing the wonders of California and beyond. Now, I will treat you just like my closest friends and customize an amazing tour experience that you will never forget! As a photographer, I also have a passion for finding the exceptional beauty in the ordinary. I will take you to the perfect spot to experience an amazing sunset, a semi-private bluff and cove at the beach, or an incredible view of the city skyline, Yosemite, and the Grand Canyon. As a professional driver, I also know how best to navigate the city traffic to best maximize your precious tour time! You will find that my tours are like snowflakes -- no two are exactly alike because I will always customize something special to make your experience unique to your desires, interests and activity level! All ages are welcome - I am great with everyone from 9 months to 99 years young! Let's go! There are no restrictions with this tour.

Overview of your Los Angeles tour

Joshua Tree National Park is only a 2 - 2. 5 hour drive from Los Angeles which makes it the closest National Park to the City of Angels. Watching a sunset, viewing the night sky in the evening or walking throughout the park is truly amazing. Since Joshua Tree National Park comprises parts of both the Mojave and the Colorado Deserts, it features a startling diversity of life. Animals such as the coyote, yucca night lizard, burrowing owl, tarantula, and roadrunner live here; and plants vary from the ephemeral desert wildflowers to the cholla cactus, barrel cactus, and of course the Joshua tree. The park is immense and infinitely variable, yet delicately fragile. It is a land shaped by sudden torrents of rain and climatic extremes. Come experience this national natural gem!
