4 of us jumped on a open air jeep hosted by Carlos yesterday and enjoyed the day emensly. So much to, so much to learn. Carlos was an excellent host. A must do even when 100 degrees. He supplied cold water, cold spray bottles, cold clothes all served the need perfectly.

Was drawn to the company because they are "eco" and the San Andreas fault. You are skirred around in fun little red jeeps in groups of 6-7. Each group has it's own guide which makes for both a personal and intimate experience. We traveled with Carlos who enthusiastically answered all of our questions so throughly the tour ran over it's... More

With a group of almost 35, Desert Adventures picked us up at our hotel, provided a fun filled, adventurous tour of the San Andreas Fault in the desert and even stopped by an agriculture site which was of interest to our group. We even climbed a hill for a bit while learning about local species and vegetation. We didn't carivan... More

My partner and I were spending the week of Spring Break (I am a Junior High Teacher) in Palm Springs. On the weekends, the parking lot of the casino in town holds a craft/art fair.

Wonderful guide we had, Morgan. She's been doing this for 20 years and still cares. My children are 9 and 13 and really enjoyed themselves. This is highly educational and fun at the same time. We did the San Andreas fault tour and were very pleased. Do not forget your camera as I did.

Our guide "Kip", was great, like a walking Wikpedia of the Desert. I had 2 teens with me and Kip kept there interest, which was a relief! We got to visit an Old Indian Village and Mining Town and hiked through gorgeous rock formations. A nice change from just hanging out at the pool.

We've been coming to the Desert off and on for years. We've never really gotten familiar with the history or geography of the Coachella Valley. This was a wonderful oreintation to the area! Smiling Spirit, a.k.a. Phil La Greca was a FANTASTIC guide. Knowledable and a lot of fun! Request him as your guide and you won't be dissppointed.
