    The presentation at the beginning was interesting, but the cost is way too high. I am a renewable energy supporter, but this was not worth the admission price

    It was so informative and the videos before and after were well done. My guide Emir (hope I got the spelling right) was very knowledgeable and helpful! You could tell he loves doing this. He made it fun! The lady in the gift shop was really nice as well. And the gulf cart ride was comfortable. 🙂

    We have passed the wind turbines for years on our way to and from Palm Springs. Today we decided to take the self guided tour. We watched an interesting short video. There are lots of pictures and posters in the main office showing the history of the wind turbines. We downloaded an app that had the guided tour, got back in the car and drove through the tour. There are old parts and pieces, blades and tower parts. And we drove very close to a working wind turbine. It was an interesting tour, just not worth $75 for 4 of us. Young children would be pretty bored.

    We flew into Palm Springs in May 2024 just to spend a weekend with friends from Los Angeles, who drove over to Palm Springs for the weekend. The windmill tour is a good activity if you're visiting. On this tour you use your own car and use their apps in order to get the narration. But you could just read the narration from the app as well. On the tour you had a chance to go through the different types of windmills that were used to the current ones. Before the tour the front desk person will set up some videos for you to see which are very helpful in understanding why windmills exist in that part of the country and some of the history behind all that. Now if you choose to go to Palm Springs in may please be aware that the temperature gets a little bit hot. I'm sure it gets hotter in June and July and August but just note that May is indeed hot. And since this is a windmill tour, please expect that it’s gonna be busy

    Located north of Palm Springs, about a 15 minute drive from downtown, is the famous windfarms as seen in many movies, commercials and music videos. And this tour of one section lets you get up close to see these gigantic structures. I took the self-guided tour, which requires you to download an app to your smartphone (it’s free), which narrates the various points on the tour. Gives a good history of wind power in California, and the trials and tribulations that were faced in implementing this technology. Interesting. And yes, it is very windy there, so be prepared.

    Palm Springs Windmill Tours

    The Palm Springs Windmill Self-Driving Tours is an interactive, educational and fun tour for friends and family. The tour is curated by Tom Spiglanin, Tour Manager, in which he will guide you along with an audio program and marked destination's throughout the first commercial wind farm in the United States. The tour starts with a display yard of non-operating wind turbines of successes and failures, along with a stop to a real generating wind turbine where you can get up close and take pictures. The tour ends with a stop at the old Enron machines. There you can exit on 19th Avenue to Indian Canyon Road more knowledgeable about renewable energy! The tour takes approximately one hour depending on your pace. We ask that you respect others by not gathering at the marked destinations. Please allow cars ahead of you to finish their exploration before your turn.
