Visite privée en voiture et randonnée dans le parc national de Joshua Tree
Description
Le parc national de Joshua Tree est comme une forteresse. Lorsque vous êtes à l’extérieur et que vous le regardez, tout ce que vous voyez, ce sont des montagnes. Créées par la collision des plaques tectoniques du Pacifique et de l'Amérique du Nord, ces montagnes présentent une formidable variété d'histoire humaine, de communautés végétales et animales, de microclimats et de processus géologiques. Nous parcourrons des routes pavées et en terre battue, sur des sentiers et hors sentiers, et sur des rochers pour comprendre les contextes plus profonds de ce parc national. Nos guides ont choisi cette œuvre pour rester proches de ce qu'ils aiment, un vaste paysage qui existe qu'il pleuve ou non. Nous sommes avant-gardistes en matière d'éducation et soucieux de l'aventure. Nous pensons que partager ce que nous avons appris sur les déserts de Mojave et du Colorado est l'œuvre de notre vie. Venez flâner avec nous.

Itinéraire
"Là où deux déserts se rencontrent" Composé de près de 800 000 acres, le parc national Joshua Tree représente deux déserts uniques (Mojave et Colorado) et contient trois zones botaniques uniques. Des vues imprenables, des formations rocheuses scandaleuses et l'emblématique Joshua Tree font de ce parc national un lieu unique pour découvrir les déserts du sud de la Californie. Le temps de conduite vers et depuis le parc national est d'une heure ou moins et nous passerons 5 à 7 heures à l'intérieur du parc.

Joshua Tree National Park is one of the most striking and interesting places in the U.S. It's also vast, and many of its most interesting and beautiful features are hidden, off the beaten track. We had a large family group ranging in age from 10 to 84. Travis tailored a custom day trip that enabled us to see many facets of Joshua Tree while taking into account the capabilities of our group. Travis' encyclopedic knowledge of Joshua Tree -- including its geology, flora, fauna, and history -- enabled us to understand what we were seeing in interesting ways. I highly recommend Travis to help make the most of your time in Joshua Tree.
Travis knows his stuff. Pay attention and you might learn something that changes your view of the world, even if ever so slightly. Top notch
We had a terrific day with Travis. We wanted a sort of highlights of Joshua Tree and, boy, did Travis deliver. He will, of course, tailor the day to your wishes. In five hours in the park, we gained an understanding of it while driving, walking, lunching and more. Travis is extremely knowledgeable about plants and geology, in particular. The three of us felt as if we learned so much during Joshua Tree 101. He was also very responsive to emails ahead of time in coordinating the day. And just a terrific day, it was.
Travis is extremely intelligent and happy to share his knowledge about the geology, flora and fauna within the park. He was kind and considerate, tailoring our day perfectly to our interests. We had a Fabulous experience!
The tour of Joshua Tree National Park that Travis gave us was second to none. We covered a lot of ground on his hybrid tour, which included short walks to interesting off-road sights, and learned many fascinating facts about the history, geology, flora, and fauna of the park and the region. He pointed out many features of the park that we would not have noticed on our own. We highly recommend Travis as a guide for anyone who wishes to explore Joshua Tree. We are looking forward to another opportunity to go out with him to visit other parts of the park that we missed on this first visit.
We had an incredible time. Travis is so knowledgeable and friendly and knew all the best places to take us. He even managed to get our two cranky tweens to enjoy it!
Very happy we arranged this tour. Wandering Mojave was very easy to work with, and our guide Travis was great -- very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and adapted to our interests. We did the "hybrid" drive and hike tour, which took us to very different parts of the park. "Hiking" was very light -- more like some short flat nature walks. I'm sure the proper hikes would be great too, but the hybrid approach is a good way to sample and learn. All four of us agreed that we got waaayyy more out of the JT visit than we would have without the tour.
