Palm Springs Airport Guide
Most people go to Palm Springs simply to relax or to take part in the many sports that are offered there. There is more to the city than the resort culture and if you have the time, visit the Agua Caliente Centre where you can learn about the tribe that made the area around Palm Springs their home. After that visit you can take a hire car out to the Indian Canyons to see the remains of ancient tribes that once populated the region. Another must do activity is to take the aerial tramway around Palm Springs and see the city from the air.
