Discover The Magic Of The Desert With Our Unique Photography Tours
If you're passionate about capturing the beauty of nature and are fascinated by Wild West histories, Covered Wagon Tours located in Coachella Valley provides one of the most immersive photography tours in California. Imagine capturing desert landscapes bathed in golden sunlight, photographing euphoric expressions of guests enjoying cowboy-type entertainment, and snapping some pictures of rare plants and animals—all while cruising through a 32,000-acre wilderness preserve within a charming covered wagon.
This is not your typical casual photo walk—The Covered Wagon Tours offer a heady mixture of storytelling visuals, history, and live Western tunes backing up a great BBQ at the end of the day: it is an unforgettable photography tour experience.
Photography Tours with a Historical Twist
One of the greatest things about these photography tours is that you get to really delve into the natural and cultural history of the area. With a seasoned naturalist guide at the helm, guests explore the geology of the San Andreas Fault, observe native plants and desert wildlife, and listen to fascinating stories of Native Americans and pioneers who once walked the very lands.
Those moments—whether it's the dramatic desert canyon shot or a candid snapshot of our glorious mules—are just right for shutterbugs who want to mix adventure with artistry. These peaceful desert surroundings, along with pouring golden hour light, make every shot feel like a postcard from back in time.
Elevate Your Photography Tours with Western-Style Entertainment
What sets our photography tours apart is the full spectrum of visual experiences available. After your wagon ride and guided nature walk, you’ll return to a scene straight out of the Old West. Capture the laughter and movement of line dancing under the stars, the soulful performance of John Malcolm Penn singing cowboy classics, or Annie’s exciting Wild West whip and rope show.
These moments of celebration are perfect for lifestyle photographers looking to create dynamic, joy-filled albums—or for anyone who just wants to remember their evening by the fire with a perfectly framed photo of family and friends.
Savor Flavor While You Snap
Post an entertaining tour; view the BBQ dinner with slow-cooked brisket, BBQ chicken, and all the fixings. The setting sun casting its warm glow over the San Jacinto Mountains provides a grand setting—simply perfect for food and landscape photography.
Whether you are photographing the sumptuous example of your dinner or a glowing sunset, you will be working towards creating images that tell the story of a truly special night.
