Yes, there is a tram here, the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. They recently began operating two new tram cars called Rotaires. During the 12-minute ride, which travels between approximately 2,500ft and 8,750ft, the cars rotate twice so that all passengers get to experience the full spectrum of spectacular views of both the various mountain ranges as well as the Coachella Valley cities below. The cars travel through five ecological zones between the Valley and Mountain stations. Have yet to take the new cars, but have heard they are great. Also, the floor of the 80-passenger cars slopes up from the outside to the center, so that those in the middle of the car can typically see over the heads of those around them.
