We wanted to learn about the park and get off the beaten path and Wandering Mojave delivered beautifully! Our guide, Hollis (apologies if I spelled it wrong!😉) was very knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic. And even though we got caught in the rain towards the end, it was still a great experience and we would definitely recommend this company!

We had a wonderful morning with Hollis. She is a walking encyclopedia on botany, ecology, native culture. Very easy to talk to, we felt comfortable asking tons of questions. She took good care to warn us of cactus or other danger, taught us safe scrambling techniques, and took us on a hike we would never feel comfortable navigating on our own. I have already recommended to my friend.

Heather was the most outstanding guide for our JTNP trip. She knows so much about the history, the stories, the flora and fauna. The trip met and surpassed all expectations. And she is FUN! She has a great sense of humor and is wickedly funny. JTNP is not for the inexperienced (which we are) and this was the best way to visit the park.

Trav was great. Full of interesting facts. Rick climbing was challenging and fun. Thx for everything!

My husband and I had a wonderful half day walking with our guide Hollis learning about the Mojave desert near Joshua Tree National Park. Hollis was extremely knowledgeable about the plants and animals that inhabit this beautiful park and also about conservation of this protected area. She also provided us with information about Joshua Tree and places we could visit in the town and also in Tucson area which we were visiting next. Hollis made our first trip into the Desert 🌵 areas of California and Arizona very interesting and left us wanting to do more of these activities next time we visit the USA.

Our guide Hollis was incredibly knowledgeable! She knew all about geology, hydrology, botany - you name it!

Our guide Travis is friendly and knowledgeable. He took us to a less trodden path which offered spectacular view with few people. Since it’s a private tour, he can customize the route based on our preference and physical abilities. We leant a lot of the plants and the eco system of the JTNP from him which we didn’t expect. It was a great experience.

We had a most enjoyable hike. None of us had been to a desert before and Hollis shared her vast knowledge with us. The 4.5 hours hike was very manageable for all of us and we are in or approaching our 70's. Thank you so much Hollis. We'd love to return.

I had the most amazing experience as a first timer in Joshua Tree with Hollis as my guide. We went to Pine City on a relaxing hike and saw Joshua Trees, Pinyon Pines, Junipers, Chollas, wonderful desert barrel cacti to name but a few of the amazing plants. The rock formations were awe inspiring and the view from our lunch break into the Sonoran desert was a highlight. Coming from Europe, it's a landscape and ecosystem I have never experienced before. I cannot wait to return. Hollis is an exceptional guide with deep knowledge and a genuine passion for the environment. Book with Wandering Mojave and get an authentic experience. Thank you Hollis and Travis!

Great Hike - very knowledgeable guide. Truly a fun experience; one not to miss. The park is amazingly beautiful.

This was such a great experience and would highly reccomend! I’ve been to Joshua Tree before but never with a guide, having a guide especially as knowledgeable as Hollis, made being at the park so much more meaningful and incredible!

Our guide Alicia was super knowledgeable and customized the hike to our interests. We got so much more out of our limited time at Joshua Tree National Park with her guidance. I would definitely recommend Wandering Mojave!

Hollis is an amazing guide! Her knowledge and passion are unparalleled! We learned so much on our hike! Highly recommend doing this! Scenery is stunning!

Wonderful hike through a beautiful part of the park most tourists don't get to see. Fantastic guidr.

Travis was extremely knowledgeable and a fun personality. It was definitely worth hiring a guide and we would do it again. Highly recommend!

Great guided hike through Joshua Tree. Our guide, Caryn, was excellent- very knowledgeable and fun to be with. Would definitely recommend her and Wandering Mohave.

What does fantastic hike. Hollis was friendly, knowledgeable, sensitive, engaging, and responsive. Mike and I learned so much and fell in love with Joshua Tree. Highly recommend. Thank you!

My wife and I have done several guided day hikes with Travis and Hollis at Wandering Mojave and there is a reason that we keep coming back. The skill and knowledge that Travis and Hollis display about the flora, fauna, and geology of Joshua Tree National Park, and of the Mojave and Colorado deserts, is outstanding. Our hikes with Wandering Mojave have been fun and informative, and we appreciate Wandering Mojave’s commitment to safety, fun, conservation, and proper stewardship of the land. We will keep coming back as we enjoy every aspect of our experiences with Wandering Mojave.

Hollis was informative, personable, and fun while attentive to our needs. She has vast knowledge of the geology and plants and tailored the hike to our fitness level. We strongly recommend anyone wanting to enhance their Joshua Tree experience to book a hike with her. 6 stars out of 5.

Hollis guided us on our half day trip and made Joshua Tree come to life with her knowledge of the plants, animals and terrain. We decided on an easy hike, but Joshua Tree offers more challenging expeditions as well.
