The basics
The certified-organic ranch features a gift shop, a screening room with an educational movie on the history of dates in California, and a café where you can try 16 varieties of dates or purchase items that incorporate dates such as cookies and bread. The date shakes are the highlight and are made with vanilla ice cream and a choice of fruits and additional flavors that you can add on.
A few tours from Palm Springs stop at Oasis Date Gardens; book a bike tour for the chance to explore the desert environment and then enjoy a break at the ranch.
