Activity Level
Prepare for a giant dose of wonder at the South Coast Botanic Garden during this limited special exhibition! Step into a playful, storybook landscape as Thomas Dambo’s towering TROLLS transform the Garden’s 87 acres into an immersive world of discovery. Enjoy time at leisure to wander alongside these charismatic, globe-trotting giants – each masterfully crafted entirely from reclaimed wood to celebrate the harmony of nature, sustainability and imagination. As part of their "expedition study of humanity," these 12 gentle giants have ventured to our corner of the world on an curious mission: to observe our delightful quirks and discover what makes you uniquely you. As you wander the garden’s scenic paths, you’ll find the trolls tucked away among trees, flowers, and peaceful landscapes, each one boasting its own personality, playful pose, and intricate hand-carved details. It’s a magical scavenger hunt that invites you to see the natural world through a much larger lens. We’ll enjoy an included, delicious Mexican-style lunch with dessert at The Original Red Onion, a Palos Verdes landmark that opened in 1963 and still serves the same traditional, Sonora-style Mexican dishes that made it a local favorite. We cap off the day with the thrill of “Industrial Theatre” during a 45-minute narrated cruise through the dynamic Los Angeles Harbor! Watch in awe as some of the world’s largest tanker ships and container ships glide past, and massive cranes pulse with energy. It’s an up-close view of one of the busiest working ports on Earth, where history and modern engineering come alive right before your eyes! This tour involves moderate walking over uneven terrain.
To ensure a healthy and enjoyable travel experience for our guests, this tour will operate with additional health & wellness measures in place.
