Captain Ron picked us up at our B&B. He was a font of interesting information on the drive out and during the tour and two perfectly selected short hikes. Half day was not enough to see this stunning park. Ron gave us great advice for next day hikes in the area. The experience was a once in a lifetime!

My husband and I were lucky to have Isabel as our guide on a Sunday morning in March. It was just the two of us. Isabel was a fountain of knowledge about the history, geology and folk lore of Joshua Tree and the surrounding Palm Springs area. She took us to the Keyes overlook first, before the crowds. We backtracked to the Garden of the Gods where she took us on an easy but adventurous scramble up a less traveled big boulder trail with spectacular views. Isabel took time at the beginning to get to know what we wanted to do and see while in the park, and made excellent suggestions based on our preferences. She was so fun and personable. We would take Big Wheel again and recommend it while you are in Palm Springs.

Thank you! Isabel is one of our newly hired guides but she takes her job very seriously and has tons of previous experience. We feel lucky to have her!

My wife and I visited Joshua Tree Nation Park on a jeep trip with Captain Ron. Ron was amazing. He had encyclopedic knowledge of the terrain and ecology of the area. He fashioned a walk for us that was energizing and informative. He was keenly aware of our physical limitations and made every effort to accommodate us. A wonderful trip with a true gentleman!
