    4h
    The Cahuilla Crawl is our introductory beginner jeep tour near Palm Springs — a 2.5-hour You-Drive experience through the Anza Valley and the surrounding highlands. It is the perfect first taste of the corridor for newcomers and seasoned travelers alike.

    Expect high-altitude vistas and winding forest climbs at an unhurried, beginner-friendly pace. You drive one of our purpose-built Jeeps while our guide leads the way, handling navigation and trail support so you can focus on the scenery. It is built for those looking for the “Big Picture” of the Riverside County highlands without the commitment of a full-day expedition.
