The seventh tour on our California’s Mission Trail Tour Series takes us to Mission San Gabriel Arcángel, the fourth of 21 Spanish missions established in California. On a docent-guided tour of the "The Pride of the California Missions," we’ll explore this iconic landmark that stands as a testament to centuries of history, culture and architectural brilliance. We’ll step into the vibrant tapestry of California's past as we explore the Mission church's Moorish, “fortress-like” walls adorned with intricate frescoes and ornate altars. We’ll wander through the tranquil courtyard and gardens to uncover the Mission's agricultural secrets and serene beauty. We’ll follow the same pathways where generations have walked and discover the tales of resilience, adaptation, and cultural exchange that have shaped the destiny of this Mission known as the "birthplace of the Los Angeles Region." Enjoy time at leisure to browse the Mission’s museum featuring exhibits brimming with artifacts and stories that bring the Mission's history to life. This afternoon we’ll enjoy time at leisure for lunch on own at the Blossom Market Food Hall, offering a collection of chef-driven “mom & pop” eateries that have brought new life to this former Masonic Lodge built in 1949. Indulge in the culinary delights of 13 different food vendors, each showcasing their celebrated talents and featuring local cuisine. We’ll top off a memorable day with an included ice cream treat at a locals’ favorite.
To ensure a healthy and enjoyable travel experience for our guests, this tour will operate with additional health & wellness measures in place.
