Our tour guide Jeff is excellent because he has an in depth knowledge of the desert, geology, history, vegetation as well as the Joshua Tree National Park. The adventure sparks dialogue with all in attendance. Jeff makes the experience unique to the participants. The Big Wheel vehicle is comfortable, clean and safe. There is ample opportunity for photographs and exploring. The scenery is breathtaking. Well worth it!

Ben our guide was very informative and good humored. We saw great highlights in Joshua tree. Ben was knowledgeable about the geologic history as well as history of residents of the park

Sarah is a very knowledgeable and passionate guide. Professional service and a new, clean vehicle. We were able to get a very good overview of the park experience, given the short time we had scheduled for the weekend. Took very personal care of us, a family of four, including a lot of water and a selection of snacks. Would highly recommend.

This experience is an absolute must. Joshua Tree is probably the most beautiful site I've seen and I was so happy to have been guided through this experience with Big Wheel Tours. Ben was an incredible tour guide and was fortunate enough to learn so many things from him about the topography to the area and town of Joshua Tree. He was the absolute best at making this an incredible experience. While Joshua Tree is easy enough to tackle on your own, I loved that I had this experience to really make the most of the park.
