Every Wednesday starting November 20, 2024, the Worth Avenue Association conducts a 75-minute historical walking tour led by Mr. Rick Rose, our historical docent. Through colorful anecdotes and commentary, the exciting and informative tours explore the origins and character of Worth Avenue, its unique architecture, the historical significance of many of the legendary landmarks and some of its famous residents.
The tours begin at 10:30 am in Via Amore at 256 Worth Avenue across from Tiffany & Co. and Chanel. There is metered two-hour parking on the street provided by ParkMobile or at the Apollo parking lot for a fee. The cost of the tour is $25 per person and the net proceeds benefit The Historical Society of Palm Beach County. Groups are being limited to 40 per tour to enhance the tour experience. Registration is required by purchasing a ticket on Eventbrite.com by clicking the Eventbrite logo below.
Please be prompt for the tour so that we may check you in and issue your participating wrist band for identification. Please note that this is a 3/4 mile walking tour. Participants with mobility issues are encouraged to use wheelchairs or electric scooters (which we do not provide).
You can also pick up a copy of Rick Rose’s book, Palm Beach: The Essential Guide to America’s Legendary Resort Town and take a self-guided tour of iconic Worth Avenue and the surrounding Palm Beach area.
