Why take this tour?

Experience the raw beauty of the desert as you embark on an unforgettable journey through the San Andreas Fault Zone. Travel in a Big Red Jeep and let your naturalist guide lead you through a maze of geological cuts and canyons, each with its own unique story about the region's plants, animals, geology, seismology, and history. As you journey through the rugged terrain, you'll hike through canyons created by the powerful forces of plate tectonics, water, wind, and time, and discover stunning vistas and unique geological formations. Along the way, your guide will share fascinating insights into the local flora and fauna, offering insights into how the Cahuilla Indians used desert plants for food, medicine, and more. You'll even get to tour a recreated Cahuilla Indian Village and learn about the ancient culture and lifestyle of these fascinating people. With bottled water and granola snacks included, this is a trip you won't want to miss!
