Come along with us to an enchanted land high in the Mojave Desert north of Palm Springs—a fascinating region where bizarre rock formations, surreal landscapes, and ancient twisting Joshua trees interact to form a pattern of stark beauty and ever-changing complexity. This sightseeing excursion involves visits to several points of interest within the National Park. You'll enjoy an included picnic lunch at Hidden Valley, where daring rock climbers are usually seen scaling the granite monoliths. Marvel at the vista extending over the Coachella Valley to the Salton Sea and beyond to Mexico from Keys View Lookout, and learn of the region’s unusual plant life when you join your Tour Manager for an easy nature walk at Cap Rock. Plus, we’ll be joined by knowledgeable step-on guide Isabel Sánchez to discover facts and stories about our surroundings, and stop at the park’s Visitor Center for an interpretive look at the area’s rich natural and cultural history.
