A few things to point out that were missed in your great video that does give awesome insight to what things to do in Palm Springs:
1.Every Thursday night on downtown Palm Springs is a street fair. Featuring food trucks, popup 10x10 tents of homemade goodies and small buisness and local organization from Palm Springs. Walk the 3 blocks on main street as you listen to music and watch spray paint art create a master piece in less then 10 minutes.
2.College of the Desert flea market happens every Saturday and Sunday. Great place to get coverups for the pool, sunglasses, wallets, cheap kids toys, and more.
3.Living Desert Zoo great for families to see Rhinos, hand feed a Giraffes, and if you go mid March to April its their Zoo Lights.
4.Coachelle Valley recently became home to a minor league hockey team Firebirds, association to the NHL Seattle Kraken Team.

Cathedral City local here! Also keep in mind that during November-January is pretty high in traffic since everyone is visiting for holidays (more typically ‘Snow Birds’, which the locals refer to as ppl from Washington, Canada etc) so be prepared for that!

Wanted to mention the Palm Springs Air Museum as another thing to do. Great video as always.

Thanks for not bothering any locals while filming. We hate that kind of stuff here in our little town. It is funny tho how so many make this town more that they what it actually is which is a glorified resort for the rich and famous while the rest of live with high taxes all year round and no locals discounts anywhere.

Thanks for stopping by my hometown! My mom lives off El Paseo and That Mole restaurant just opened. Also thank you for distinguishing the different cities. When the tennis tournament happens in March they always say Palm Springs when its the Indian Wells tennis garden 😅

Thanks Chris! Friends of ours suggested we check out Palm Springs, but this video has convinced me that Palm Springs is definitely our next travel spot to check out. All the info I needed to feel confident with my travel planning... but let's face it, we all know Travelling Princess was the star of this show! :)

[claudiamiller]

Great info…never knew Palm Springs was an “area” of a bunch of towns! Give the Princess a big hug from this random fan…just enchanting!

[williamfswann]

The traveling princess is so precious! She’s a cutie pie.

We go to Palm Springs 2-3 times a year and I love all the new recommendations you have!

[glenwest]

You forgot Ontario (ONT) Airport. I'm sure you remember John Wayne because it's closest to your place and it's a great Airport because I've worked there before.
You always have great videos and information.

I absolutely love Palm Springs, epeically in March when the BNP Paribas Open takes place; it's the 'fifth grand slam', and it's in Indian Wells, so on the way. The weather and mountain backdrop will never get old

I am a local, and I am letting you know there are hot springs in Palm Springs. They are just now being re-opened after being closed for several years. The Agua Caliente Spa opens April 4, 2023.

Holy crap, can't believe how cute your little girl is Chris. What a gift. 😊

Bring some warm clothes for comfort if you're taking the Tram, the top is cooler than the valley, even when there's no snow.
