Visitor Experiences in Their Own Words
"I couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you're going to be in or around Palm Springs, you must participate in this activity. The staff is very friendly, the music is great, and the ride through the palm tree forest with the caravan is truly beautiful. At the end of the ride, we were treated to a fantastic meal. The kids especially loved the dessert and roasted marshmallows. We spent about 4-5 hours of unforgettable, beautiful time." - Sevgi B., San Francisco, CA, December 2023

"Covered Wagon Tour" was so much fun for our group of seven ladies. Who doesn't love to dress up Western, ride in a covered wagon drawn by mules, learn about the flora and fauna of the desert, enjoy a delicious bar-b-que and line dance? The naturalist guides were very knowledgeable and personable. The musicians that played during dinner and afterward were great. The setting was perfect and the owner, Bill, was very hospitable." - Laura R., Pleasanton, CA, October 2024
"We weren't sure what we were getting into, but this turned out to be a highlight of our trip! Everything about this place was fantastic and well thought out. It starts with a wonderful mule ride, in a covered wagon to Palm Grove. Along the way, the host is so knowledgeable and tells you so much information about the area. Once you get to Palm Grove, it's another learning experience where you get to walk around and explore a short but knowledgeable hike. You stand on the actual fault line!" - Annalisa M., Scottsdale, AZ, January 2024
