This is a good trip of the San Andreas fault zone. Note that it is the zone of the fault and although there are some geologic features related to the tectonic action it is more desert tour than fault tour. That having been said it is a very unique way to experience the desert, the canyons and oasis. There is also interesting history of the region and why the formations, industry and agriculture are there.

Jaya_V

such an educational experience. Isabel is so knowledgeable and pleasant with an upbeat personality. Her enthusiasm for the area is infectious.

Interesting tour of the fault and lesson of the rock formations. Expect to hike up a hill to view the Salton Sea with spectacular views from atop the hill. The path is a little rocky so wearing hiking shoes or shoes with a good grippy sole would be helpful. The 4 Runner vehicle was a good sturdy vehicle for traversing the dusty washboard roads of the canyon. The short walk into the slot canyon was interesting although expect a climb over small boulders with tight spaces. The history of the small town of Mecca was interesting with a variety of agriculture. The tour was approximately four hours which was a little long for our preference but the water and snacks were appreciated. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. He made the tour interesting and answered a lot of questions not just about the fault but about life in the California area. I’m still not sure it was worth $189 per person though….

Ben was an extraordinary tour guide. His knowledge of the different faults and the history was fantastic and enjoyed the opportunity to go on a short hike through the canyons and the off road ride was wonderful. Thanks for a great tour!

A fantastic tour with an excellent tour guide Isabella! Very knowledgeable and fun. She definitely has a passion for providing customer satisfaction! The tour took us off road to see a few fault lines, slot canyons, and other interesting sites. Worth the $’s.
