Itinerary
Day 1
Meet at the Forever Marilyn statue (check‑in)
Meet your guide and group at the Forever Marilyn statue at the intersection of Museum Way and S Belardo Rd. Look for the snappy cart and the guide who will check everyone in, confirm seating, and give a short safety briefing before departure.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive 8–10 minutes early for check‑in; tours depart promptly.
- The statue area is exposed—bring a hat and sunscreen for short waits.
- Look for a guide holding a sign or standing by the statue; carts are easy to spot.
