What To Expect

Coachella Valley Preserve

Here your adventure makes it's first stop at the 3rd largest Oasis in the world. Here you will walk over a bridge that straddles the actual faultline. 30 minutes are spent here where there is about a half mile trail you can optionally take with your guide. Restrooms are also located here before we venture far into the wilderness.

San Andreas Fault

We travel by Hummer into the mouth of a canyon that was formed by the San Andreas Fault. Here the adventure in your Hummer begins and we follow a road many Jeeps will need to return. 1.5 billion year old rocks are in this canyon that date back to the bottom of the Grand Canyon! The scenery is mind-bending as you see the tortured rock formations beneath the cobalt blue skies of the high desert.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Gary has a wealth of knowledge ledge about the Palm Springs area. He understands a lot of the geology involved in the rock, formations, sediment, earthquake faults, and has an excellent grasp of the general history of the area. We had a wonderful time with him as our guide. The adventure was fun, entertaining, and enlightening. We highly recommend the tour for people wanting to become more familiar with the geology of the area. Be prepared to be bounced around a lot in the hunter. That was fun too.

You were lucky to have Gary as your driver. He's nothing but the best! Big in heart and big and great in knowledge of the area. He's been a driver and guide for many years so he knows his stuff. Thanks for the great review and come again!
