Highly recommend in Palm Springs
Ron was an awesome guide, he provided lots of information on the history of Palm Springs, the local geology, and the Native American tribes. He realized we were fast moving and he adjusted the tour to extend our bike ride to a local trading post and showed us a few additional sights. Great day in nature, with great views of Palm Springs and the local area. Highly recommend.

Our guide, Ron was an absolute delight, knowledgeable and passionate about his town and tour. He made the tour.
Its not at all demanding and requires only a slight degree of fitness so try them out, its a great way to learn about the valley, its history, geography, geology and its famous residents over the golden years.

Earthquake Canyon Tour—Great Way to get Close to Nature!
We were a family of six with four young adults. The tour includes a roughly 30 minute ride out to the starting point and a similar ride back from finishing point. The ride is a nice, quiet glide down a lightly trafficked and very scenic canyon road. Ron, our guide, provided a great voice over both during the van ride out/back as well as stopping points throughout the bike tour regarding the geology, plant and animal life, water impacts (Salton Sea, flood control, agriculture) and history/impact of migrant workers and indigenous people. Many spectacular mountain and rock formations, San Andreas Fault and agriculture fields. Very educational and enjoyable experience. Great way to get close to nature. We loved it!

A gem of a tour!!
What a great way to see this special area and learn about it!!! Kolin, our guide, knew so much about the history - both natural and man made. His enthusiasm for the canyon and ecosystem was contagious. The bike ride through the mid century modern homes was stunning and then we were able to do an easy hike in the canyon, full of great photo opportunities. What a gift! We were very well taken care of and I would say we were totally spoiled. Kolin even had electrolytes for us! You will LOVE this tour!!!
