The sun hits the pale facades and polished storefront windows as you step off Santa Monica Boulevard and onto Rodeo Drive. Palm trunks lean like polite hosts; shop windows flash gems and tailored suits. The audio guide starts in your ear and the strip opens up — boutiques, a sculpted park edge, and alleys that once stood in movie scenes — all unfolding at your pace.
