YOU’VE GOT TO VISIT MODESTO!
When traveling California; North and South or East and West from the Bay Area to Yosemite you’ll be ‘visiting’ Modesto. Modesto is your chance to relax and stay awhile. Enjoy our quality accommodations, incredible food and wonderful entertainment. You can experience walking the tree-lined streets, shopping at Vintage Faire or savoring a great cup of coffee downtown. Always make sure to stop and leave with something from one the dozen or so farm stands and take home a taste of why Modesto should be on everyone’s ‘gotta go’ list…
TRAVEL UPDATES
“If you are like me, you love the fall…cool evenings, incredible foliage, beautiful sunsets, low humidity and awesome ‘comfort’ food. What’s great about being in Modesto is that you get all that and so much more.” – CEO Todd Aaronson
Modesto puts travelers’ health as a number one priority! Check out our Travel Safe page on how to be socially aware when visiting!

Modesto is geographically at California’s heart. Your experiences here will reflect the warmth of our rich heritage and kind-hearted people. While Modesto has transformed into one of the largest cities in California with more than 208,839 residents, it has retained its old-world charm and traditional values. Several historical landmarks remain well preserved in town, now sitting side by side with new additions, such as the Gallo Center for the Arts, Vintage Faire Mall and modern medical centers.
