Visite en jeep de la faille de San Andreas (Greater Palm Springs)
Description
Seul Red Jeep Tours peut vous emmener à Metate Ranch, situé au cœur de la zone de faille de San Andreas. Au cours de cette incroyable visite en jeep en plein air, vous voyagerez au cœur de la célèbre faille de San Andreas en Californie et serez témoin des forces de la nature qui ont créé des canyons aux parois abruptes et les paysages les plus tordus et tourmentés de la Terre ! Vous serez émerveillé par le paysage spectaculaire alors que votre Jeep serpente à travers les os de la terre. Au cours de votre aventure, vous vous arrêterez plusieurs fois pour de courtes promenades dans la nature, y compris une petite randonnée à travers un canyon à sous, si vous le souhaitez. Cette visite s'arrête également à une oasis naturelle de palmiers, où l'eau bouillonne du sol toute l'année. Vous découvrirez ici comment les Indiens Cahuilla utilisaient les plantes du désert pour survivre dans cet environnement inhospitalier. Un dernier moment fort est une visite guidée de notre village indien Cahuilla recréé qui met en valeur le style de vie et la culture du peuple Cahuilla.

A great experience! We learned so much about the Fault lines and geology surrounding Palm Springs. Definitely recommend. The booking was seamless
So happy the whole experience hit the mark, Ali! We work every day to make sure our guests have an incredible experience. Thanks for the recommendation. 🌄
Amazing experience, totally worth it! Beautiful views and a personalized tour! Our guide was kind and helpful.
So happy you had such a wonderful time, Tania! A personalized tour in one of the most beautiful landscapes in California; doesn't get much better than that. Hope to see you back! 🌄
Such a fun family tour. We learned the geology and history of the area and hiked in the canyons and desert oasis. Our guide Leroy was awesome and even my teens weren’t bored which is saying a lot.
Really glad the whole family had a great time, Annie. Thanks for choosing us, we hope to see you back again soon 🌄
It’s good but could be one half the time. The second half is much better than the first half. It feels a little like the price is being justified by time taken, not strictly quality.
Thank you for the honest feedback, Clifton. We genuinely appreciate it. We'll pass this along to the team as we're always looking to improve the experience. Hope to welcome you back! 🌄
Slot canyons are amazing. Travis knows all the geology and history-very fun. 12345678910111213151516
Travis + slot canyons = a winning combo! 😄 So happy you had such a great time, Marisa. Hope to see you back! 🏜️
Very informative excursion into the desert to get an understanding of original indigenous peoples and there way of life. Exposure to the geology of the San Andreas fault and its impact on the area. Reasonably comfortable and adequate rest room areas.
Thank you for the thoughtful review! We're glad the geology and indigenous history of the area came through, those are really the heart of the tour. We always appreciate feedback and hope to welcome you back! 🏜️
Make sure you ask for Butch. He was great and know everything about the fault and plants and geology of the region.
Butch is fantastic, it is wonderful to read he made such a great impression, Les! Thanks for the recommendation and hope to see you back! 🏜️
The itinerary, exploring the San Andreas fault, was the draw. But it was Leroy, our driver, who made this a one-of-a kind memorable experience. His knowledge of the area and its history was second to none. His delivery of this information was both informative and entertaining. Leroy brought us to interesting sites and, then, went above and beyond, incorporating unique features of the site as he took our group photo. What could have been a run-of-the-mill tour turned out to be a day to be remembered. Bravo, Leroy!
Jim, what a wonderful review, thank you! Leroy has that rare ability to make every stop feel like it means something, and it sounds like he really brought the whole experience to life for your group. The photo touch is so him! We'll make sure he sees this. 🌵🚙
The Red Jeep Tour is a great way to see the San Andreas Fault and learn about the Cahuilla Indians. The guides are knowledgeable and friendly. Leroy was a great guide and storyteller.
We love the title, Kate! 😄 Leroy is a natural storyteller, happy to hear he made it such a special experience. Hope to see you back! 🌄
Three friends and I did the Red Jeep San Andreas Fault tour and it was just amazing. Our guide, Rick, was outstanding and made the multitude of information that he passed on so interesting and involving. I learned much more about the history of Palm Springs and the surrounding areas on this tour compared to several other tours that I had taken in that part of the state. We saw so much of the area and learned the fascinating story about the Native Americans that had inhabited the region for centuries, the incredible water supply existence in Palm Springs, the San Andreas Fault and how it is so different than what I had believed in the past, and much more. We saw so many interesting areas and things in the desert. Really wonderful how much was covered in such a thoroughly entertaining tour. Highest recommendation!
Rick has a real gift for making all those facts about the fault and the local history actually stick. It’s great to hear that his stories gave you a whole new perspective on the area compared to other tours you've taken. We're so glad you and your friends had such a fun time. Thanks for the recommendation! 🌵🏜️🙌
