Excellent tour with guide Colin - Visiting from Australia and I just happened to be in Palm Springs on a rainy day with lots of snow in the Park - which was magical and a rare sight apparently. Colin had great knowledge and passion for the Park and region and made the tour very enjoyable indeed - well worth it and highly recommended.

Will was a great guide, very knowledgeable, personable and engaging. Good plan by starting at the east end of the Park and traversing to the other side. Wonderful sites and great conversation. Definitely a memorable experience that will stay with my wife and me long after we get home.

Our tour guide Kolin was terrific! We booked this tour with Big Wheels Tours. It did not disappoint. Our tour guide Kolin was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable about Joshua Tree National Park and the surrounding area. Fun learning experience. He provided snacks and water. And made sure we were comfortable throughout. He answered all of our questions. Kolin went out of his way to make sure we had a superb experience. Early tour is the best for avoiding crowds. Highly recommend this tour.
