Trips & Tours
One of the perks of membership is the opportunity to join us on specially-planned Trips & Tours.
All are one-day jaunts in Orange, LA or north San Diego counties, and the destinations are chosen based on member interests. We visit or tour a group and often lunch together as well. Our Trips & Tours get rave reviews, and we always have a great time.
Here is the 2026-2027 roster of member Trips & Tours. We hope you’ll join us.

Below, please enjoy photo albums of past Trips & Tours, with lots of photos not only of the locations but also of members having a good time!
The Getty Center, November 2025
On a Wednesday of beautiful fall sunlight, twenty-five Daytrippers made the 90-plus minute drive to the Getty Center. For some of our club members, it was the first time visiting, and for others, it remains a favorite destination.
The Botanical Building, Balboa Park, San Diego October 2025
On a beautiful day in October, we took an easy drive to the Balboa Park in San Diego to explore a little further afield for our first Trips & Tours (T&T) of the garden club year. Our highlight destination was the newly renovated, historic Botanical Building in Balboa Park.
Sheila Peterson’s Terraced Haven, April 2025
On yet another gray and chilly morning, Daytrippers enjoyed the unique experience of exploring the home and gardens of Sheila and Jimmy Peterson.
The Ecology Center, January 2025
The January T&T kick-started 2025 with an enthusiastic and curious crowd of 34 day-trippers touring The Ecology Center in San Juan Capistrano.
North San Diego County Nursery Crawl, October 2024
On a warm and beautiful October day, thirteen club members had an excellent time perusing and shopping five distinctly different nurseries in norther San Diego County.
Hortense Miller Garden, September 2024
We opened the garden club year with a local Trip & Tour destination where Garden Club day trippers channeled mountain goats as we toured the terraced grounds and home of Hortense Miller.
