The Mission Inn Foundation offers a 75-minute walking tour led by trained docents on the art, architecture, and history of the Mission Inn. This is your opportunity to see parts of the National Historic Landmark that are inaccessible to the general public based on hotel availability.

During Festival of Lights, starting the Friday after Thanksgiving, and running through the first week of January, tours are $17 per person. Payment is required at the time of reservation and is nonrefundable for Festival of Lights tours.
