Climb nearly a mile high to panoramic views stretching all the way to Mexico, where the cool Pacific breeze whispers through the high desert.
Our expert guides lead this tour right from the downtown Palm Springs Art Museum at 8:30 am or the California Welcome Center in Yucca Valley at 9:30 am daily. Discover the most iconic spots in Joshua Tree National Park with our knowledgeable guides, who will share insights on the desert’s unique geology and the rich cowboy history of the area. This tour follows the same route as our open-air H-1 Hummer tour, ensuring you don’t miss a single highlight, all at a more affordable price.
