Stop At: Indian Canyons, 38500 S Palm Canyon Dr, Palm Springs, Greater Palm Springs, CA 92264-9332
Climb aboard a Big Red Jeeps for a visit to the ancestral home of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, where stunning rock formations and the contrasting greens of magnificent fan palms and more than 150 species of plants beckon travelers to these lush palm oases.
On your adventure, a professional guide will educate and entertain you with stories about the history, culture, lifestyle, and legends of the Cahuilla people. Enjoy a guided 1-mile hike on a tranquil trail along the banks of Andreas Creek as your guide describes the ceremonies and legends of the Cahuilla people and explains how they used the desert’s plants for survival. Then view one of the largest natural palm oases in North America from the rim of Palm Canyon and enjoy a short walk to a hidden water cave where the water flows most of the year.

My wife set up our trip to the red Jeep tours so I didn’t really know what to expect. One thing is for sure, I didn’t expect that our guide and driver, Rick, would be teaching me so much about the area and its people in just a three hour time frame. I felt like I learned more during this trip than some of my college classes. We saw canyons that are truly fitting of Hollywood movies, it was impressive. I even have to admit my back wasn’t feeling great from the shenanigans the day before, but I made it through just fine, our driver knew what he was doing. I love to learn and have a little adventure, and this definitely checked both boxes. Thank you again Rick!!Andres Canyon hike. Informative mellow guide. Beautiful scenery. Interesting history of the Coahuila tribe told with respect.
