May Olive Your Dreams Come True

From olive groves to glowing sunsets, experience Temecula at its most charming.

Your afternoon adventure begins with a tour of the scenic Temecula Olive Oil Company ranch, nestled among rolling hills and sun-kissed groves. Take a leisurely stroll through rows of thriving olive trees as your guide shares the fascinating story of how premium California olive oils are grown, harvested, and pressed. Then, step into the tasting room to sample a selection of fresh, flavorful extra virgin olive oils and balsamic blends, each reflecting the essence of the local countryside. We'll also enjoy a boxed picnic lunch amid the peaceful beauty of the ranch, offering the perfect opportunity to relax, savor the fresh air, and soak in the idyllic setting.

Next, we’ll take a short drive to see the spectacular metal sculptures of renowned artist Ricardo Breceda, creator of the famous desert art displays in Borrego Springs. His dramatic works, ranging from wild horses and desert wildlife to towering prehistoric creatures, are spread across the open landscape, creating a one-of-a-kind outdoor gallery. We’ll enjoy the view as we drive past his larger-than-life creations, before getting out to walk among the sculptures and admire them up close at his Art Gallery in Aguanga.

As the day begins to wind down, we’ll make our way to the Temecula Sunset Market. Historic wooden boardwalks and twinkling lights set the stage for an enchanting evening. Meander through bustling stalls of artisan vendors offering handmade goods, taste delicious local treats, and enjoy the sounds of live music drifting through the night air. The market’s lively yet laidback atmosphere makes it easy to mingle with friendly locals, discover unique masterpieces, and simply enjoy the magic of Temecula after sunset.

By the end of the evening, you’ll have experienced the very best of Temecula—its flavors, its artistry, and its warm smalltown charm.
