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

Josh was excellent at ensuring our comfort and safety as well as informing us on all there is to know about the area's history. The day was a very windy and cool day as the 4 of us sat up high in the back 4 seats but so worth it...not for everyone for sure though! The coats provided gave us immense protection from the wind and the blankets helped too. The palms and fault area is spectacularly beautiful both in its scenery and the mechanics of how it all works. We also enjoyed the a lovely sunset on the windy drive back to our cars. Thank you Josh!

We went on the San Andreas Fault tour as a family of four (all adults) and we all loved it! We met our tour guide Jeff who was so welcoming and friendly and made us feel both safe and excited for the ride. We then made our way to the mountains where he guided us with interesting historical information. He was welcoming to questions and entertaining - making the trip not boring at all. We then journeyed through the canyon in the hummer - an experience I highly recommend to do with an expert. Thank you for a fun adventure! I would recommend this to anyone (and ask for Jeff for a great tour guide :))!
