What To Expect

Joshua Tree National Park

Our shuttle van will take you to the city of Joshua Tree where we trade for our H-1 Military Hummer to complete your adventure. We climb to the top of a breathtaking overlook called Eureka Peak that will give you a stunning view of the valley below and a view that stretches all the way to Mexico.

Big Morongo Canyon Preserve

Nestled among the Little San Bernardino Mountains in the Sand to Snow National Monument, the desert oasis at Big Morongo Canyon is one of the 10 largest cottonwood and willow riparian habitats in California. The upstream end of the canyon lies in the Mojave Desert, while its downstream portion opens into the Colorado Desert. There are numerous trails to walk and hike, including a wheelchair-accessible boardwalk through the marsh and riparian habitats. At 31,000 acres with elevations ranging from 600 feet on the canyon floor to 3000 feet at the top of the ridge, this diverse landscape has been an important part of the Morongo Basin’s natural and cultural history for almost two billion years.

Took out of town guests on this adventure and we had a wonderful time. Jeff was a wealth of information, the views from high up in the Park were spectacular, and the musical playlist was a great touch to our experience. Would definitely recommend this trip.

Thanks for your awesome recommendation! Jeff is one of our Senior guides. He takes his job seriously and is also somewhat of a music man. He teaches guitar and plays in a band. No wonder you had a great musical playlist.

We had Josh as our tour guide. He has grown up in the Coachella Valley and has a wealth of interesting knowledge which he is very good at sharing. Not only was this trip fun and interesting, but we learned so much by listening to Josh. We highly recommend taking this tour.

Thanks for taking the time and sharing your tour recommendation with everyone! Josh is just simply one of most good-natured people that mixes his attention to the details of the tour with his warm personality. Come back again soon!

We were privileged to see the Joshua National Park the day after a large snowfall and it's beauty almost indescribable.Zach, our guide, is a treasure. His knowledge of the geology of this region (and many others), the flora, fauna and related pop culture (!) made for non-stop fascinating conversations and great learnings - leaving you wanting more. Will definitely be back!

Thanks for the review! Hopefully you have some photos to share. Snowy days in the desert are MAGICAL. They are also COLD. I am glad you were on our enclosed H2 Hummer to keep you warm! Thanks for the great review for our guide Zach - he is a real Park Ranger and is giving some of his time this season to make these tours spectacular!
