Palm Springs Hike to an Oasis and Amazing Desert Views

3.Palm Springs Hike to an Oasis and Amazing Desert Views

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 106 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $67

Review of Palm Springs’ guided oasis hike, with desert views, Cahuilla plant lore, practical trail advice, pricing, and fitness details.

“Carlos is an excellent guide. The hike took about 3 hours and we kept a moderate pace and all of the hikers were challenged with the incline and the pace. Carlos knows the area very well and we were able to take less traveled routes so we really had the place to ourselves for most of the hike. Carlos taught us a lot about the ecosystem and the views were amazing. I am so glad I did this hike and I would definitely recommend this hike.”

★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 33 reviews · 2 days · from $100

Review of a 2-day Agafay Desert and Atlas Mountains trek from Marrakech, with Berber villages, camel riding, meals, riad stay, and practical advice.

“Je ne mets pas 5 étoiles même si rapport qualité prix cette excursion est imbattable. Là le problème est lié à l organisation. 1er jour nikel: ballade en dromadaire, visite d une cascade, ballade de 2h dans les montagnes, un déjeuner au top. Par contre, après le déjeuner notre guide nous explique que le groupe avec qui nous étions repartait à Marrakech et que nous étions les seuls a passer la nuit dans les montagnes. A partir de là ça a été un peu chaotique. Au riad (atlas 4 seasons) Rachid a tout fait pour nous aider, un grand grand merci à toute l' équipe, et le riad est vraiment…”
