WOW!!! Had our first hiking tour for a family of four. Was nervous as this was our first time hiking with the twins(age 10). It was FABULOUS! Jeff was our tour guide and he not only went at our pace, but made sure we had plenty of water and snacks along the way. We learned a lot from his description of plants and the desert area. This guy knows his stuff! We cant wait to go again, and the 1000 Palms Trail is perfect if you are just starting out! I would definitely tell all my friends about this company!
