Activity Level
Activity Level 2
Today’s exploration of L.A.’s famed Wilshire Boulevard includes visits to two of the most iconic museums on L.A.’s famed Museum Row. Enjoy time at leisure to explore the Petersen Automotive Museum, the world-class automotive museum that raised the bar on what a car museum should with its $90 million interior and exterior transformation. One of the largest and most diverse automotive collections in the world, the Petersen features one-of-a-kind exhibits that highlight some of the rarest cars in the world. Occupying an entire city block, the museum features an automotive legend around every corner! On display for a limited time, We Are Porsche, celebrates 75 years of Porsche history with 40 Porsches on display including a 1958 Porsche Carrera GT Speedster, a 2023 Porsche 963 and the 1973 Porsche 911S used in Top Gun: Maverick. Permanent exhibits include Splendor & Speed: Treasures of the Petersen Collection and Cars of Film and Television featuring the Batmobile and the Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters. This afternoon we’ll visit the world famous La Brea Tar Pits & Museum, Earth’s most important Ice Age fossil site. A visit to the paleontological laboratory known as the "Fossil Lab" is where we’ll witness how Ice Age fossils are cleaned, studied, and prepared for exhibit. At Project 23 we’ll see live excavations taking place, and at the historic Observation Pit we’ll experience what it’s like to descend into an excavation pit! Also included is Titans of the Ice Age, an exciting 3D movie adventure that takes you on a journey to a world lost in time, buried in ice, and ruled by giants. Enjoy time for lunch on your own at the Original Farmers Market or The Grove between our museum visits.
