You’ll explore some of Davis’s quirkiest and most charming spots today. Picture this: the scent of old wood at the elegant Dresbach-Hunt-Boyer House, the leafy calm of the UC Davis Arboretum, the hum of students near Shields Library, and maybe-just maybe-a close encounter with some six-legged locals at the Bohart Museum of Entomology. Don’t worry, the bugs are the friendly sort; just don’t invite them for a picnic.
Here’s how your tour works: as you walk up to each stop, I’ll start chatting to you about where you are and what you’re seeing. If for some reason things go quiet-just tap play in the app and I’ll get right back to talking your ear off! Lost? Not a problem. Pull up the map anytime and find your way. Got a burning question about a landmark? (Or just want to hear my best bee joke?) Hit the chat below and I’ll be here.
Davis is a friendly place, but let’s keep an eye out for crosswalks, cyclists (they’re everywhere!), and the California sun. A hat, sunscreen, comfy shoes, and water will make you just as ready for adventure as I am.
Oh, and good news-there aren’t any stops today where you’ll need special dress. Just bring your sense of curiosity!
If you haven’t already, make your way to our first stop, the Dresbach-Hunt-Boyer House. The journey kicks off as soon as you’re there. Let’s make some discoveries together!
