Getty Villa Tours and Tickets

California’s Highway 1—also known as the Pacific Coast Highway—stretches along the Pacific Ocean, and is known for its spectacular scenery. Embark on a road trip to remember when you download this self-led, smartphone audio guide. Designed to accompany you from San Francisco all the way to Los Angeles, the audio narration will share facts and stories about the cities and landmarks you pass—and the app’s GPS functionality works offline, too.

Use this guide while you drive down the Pacific Coast Highway from Los Angeles to Santa Maria which helps you navigate to several noteworthy places along the route, and also gives you a trivia question about each place. Go at your own pace, and know this does not use data. Several stops include The Getty Villa, Venice, Marina del Ray, Malibu, Oxnard, and many more.

Explore Malibu with its 21 miles of famous coastlines. Start the day driving up to the Malibu Colony with its coveted ocean access and beach-side mansions. We’ll walk along the semi-private beach enjoyed by the many celebrities who live in the Colony: Tom Hanks, Woody Harrelson and Bill Murray, among others. Then we'll continue north to find Malibu's most pristine beaches, including the wild cliffs of El Matador beach. Returning, we'll stop at Point Dume Natural Preserve with its stunning Ocean view and at an ocean park with panoramic views where whales and dolphins can be spotted (only Dec-Marc). Following, we'll explore the Adamson house, (inside house tour not incl) the first beach mansions in Malibu and its stunning architecture and location. At the end of the tour we can drop you at the world famous Getty Villa Museum, a replica of a Roman Mansion of 2000 years ago. We try to keep the price low for this PRIVATE tour so a good TIP at the end of the tour is highly suggested.

In a secluded canyon outside Los Angeles we call 29 Oaks our home. Since 1998 we have been welcoming guests to our home for horseback riding and relaxation. Hiking and biking abound right outside our door, and with our world-famous beaches just 15 minutes away we think we have the best location with the best fun! Come out and you'll experience an alternative to the hustle and bustle of the city, but still be close enough to access the major attractions within minutes.
