Be Extreme in Palm Springs

The perfect activity for any thrill seeker is a ride through a vast wilderness on an extreme touring vehicle.  This can be possible in Palm Springs on the Joshua Tree National Park Hummer Tour.  You will travel through the rough and tough terrain on the back roads of Joshua Tree National Park in a premier H-1 Hummer. 

The park is known for its vast array of wildflowers which bloom at different times during the year.  If you are lucky enough to take this tour in late February, wildflower season is just beginning.  You will see the vivid colors of the annuals at the lower elevations of the park.  In the spring, the cacti will begin to bloom their bright, waxy flowers.  In the desert regions above 5,000 feet, the plants begin blooming as late as June.  No matter which time of the year you plan on making your trip, you will undoubtedly be amazed by the beautiful floral collection this park contains. 

As the park is named after the Joshua tree, you will of course see plenty of these twisted, spiky trees during your journey.  While you ride in the massive Hummer, you will probably spot many animals such as fox, bighorn sheep, several snakes and some of the 250 bird species that make their home in the park. 

Your tour also includes a stop at the San Andreas Fault.  This is the point where two of the moving plates of the Earth’s crust meet.  Here is where the 3^rd largest naturally occurring Oasis in the world is located as well as some of the oldest rocks on the planet.  If you want to go on the ultimate tour on the ultimate touring vehicle, this exhilarating tour is ideal for you!

If you would just like to see the San Andreas Fault, the San Andreas Fault Explorer Hummer Tour is another option.  This tour will give you an introduction to the desert while you venture through the dry desert viewing the numerous canyons.  Once you reach the fault line, you will not only see the Oasis but get to tour the tiny cabin that belonged to one of the first settlers in the area.  Additionally, you can journey into an old goldmine trail which rises around 3000 feet above the desert floor.  This tour is perfect for those with a bit less time.
