We enjoyed our bike tour through the desert. Our guide Ben is a wealth of knowledge regarding the geology and vegetation of the area. The ride was very relaxing. It was a great way to start our day!

Do not miss this chance to see nature up close

We are 3 women friends who chose this excursion and are so happy that we did. Our guide, Ben, was excellent. Informative, thorough and patient he answered all our questions and showed us many points of interest. For those of you who are concerned about the length of the ride, etc., rest assured it's so easy. Almost all of it downhill, you barely have to pedal. We are all in our 60's and managed really well. Bikes and helmets are fitted to each individual. The road traveled is mostly empty of traffic and smooth. The surrounding area is magnificent as only mother nature can be. You determine when, where, how often you stop. Water and snacks are provided. Bring a camera or phone. You'll never run out of things to photograph. Starting early meant we avoided the major heat of the day. There was always a comfortable breeze as well. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Recommend it highly!!
Informative, safe tour with awesome guide

Jeff, our guide, ensured that we had a very safe, fun, and informative ride. We went 18 miles, but it was mostly downhill with small flat sections. I would highly recommend this for a tour. We learned a lot about the geography of the area. At the end, we were treated to a date shake. I’m a very fussy eater and don’t like dates. It was an amazing treat. Great tour!
Gotta Go on the Earthquake Canyon Ride!

Our guide, Ron, made this trip! He was so engaging, so knowlegable about the area and taught us so much. The bikes were excellent. He had plenty of water for us, which was great given how dry and warm it was!
Great afternoon.

Excellent bike ride in the desert

Excellent experience from pick up to drop off. The size of the group was perfect; 6. Ben is very personable as well as very knowledgeable about the geography and geology of the area. The bikes were in good condition, the road too! We had a beautiful weather day; sunny, not too hot . The ride itself is easy, a little work against the wind, many places to coast downhill.
I recommend this activity for a anyone who would like to experience this part of the desert up close.

A “must do” experience

This excursion will be enjoyed by almost anyone! Our guide, Joe was terrific- he outfitted my 89 year old father with a pedal assist bike, and he was able to complete the bike trip with no problems. The views were amazing - as we traversed the fault lines, witnessing giant plates of rock pushing upward out of the soil, we stopped often for photos! This is a must do if you are in the area.
Exhilarating ride and Ben was a 5 star plus guide!!!

Exhilarating bike ride amid spectacular scenery. SO much fun. We are 70+ active seniors. Ben was an amazing guide describing geological and historical features that we passed on the ride out and back to Boxwood Canyon. The bikes were great as was the paved road. Kudos for a 5 star plus guide and tour
Amazing geography

Amazing country, like none I’ve ever seen before. Great guide. Biking was mostly easy and fun. Fig shakes were an extra treat at the end!
Fantastic experience

Most excellent guide! Great knowledge and hospitality- bikes were easy to ride and the scenery was spectacular! We all thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would do it again.
Perfect Tour For Me!

Joel was a fantastic guide! He was engaging, punctual, and informative! He took extra time to make sure I was comfortable, didn't overheat, and got the experience I wanted. Although the outdoor temperature was hot, the bicycle ride was the perfect temperature with wind and ice cold water to drink. I would do this tour again, for sure! 100°F outside, no problem with this tour.

We had a great morning, beautiful ride, easy (for all ages) and educational. The entire ride was downhill and the landscape changed as the ride went on. The Canon was breathtaking and last stretch coming down the road into the fields of grapes and date palms was beautiful, not to mention the Salton Sea off to the south. Riders were 37,40,44 and 60.
Fun ride for couples

We were looking for an outdoor activity for my Double Nickels birthday while on vacation. We enjoyed the canyon ride and there was a breeze the entire time. It was a mix of peddling and coasting. A fun way to spend a morning while my husband and I enjoyed the scenery and laughed about childhood bike riding stories! A day later it is important to know that we are not sore and we are not elite athletes by any means. 😂
Thanks to our guide Ben for keeping us safe and sharing his knowledge of the area….such a nice guy, well spoken, well traveled with an obvious love of nature.
Wow!
