It was the best experience of our vacation. Our guide Ben was awesome…he gave us great information about where we were about to ride. The scenery was so spectacular. I would recommend this tour to everyone who comes to Palm Springs.

A solid 10 stars ⭐️ from us❗️ It has been one of the best highlights of our trip. I would recommend Big Wheel Tours to everyone who comes to Palm Springs. Beni’s a treasure as a tour guide. He was very informative and knew what he was talking about. That really made the experience even better for us knowing about the area before we started our ride. Keep up the great work. Your company is definitely 100% awesome. Thank you ❗️ David Griner and Lisa Koester

Awesome your! Ben was a great host! Very pleasant, tons of knowledge and a safe driver! The bike ride through the San Andreas fault zones was amazing. At some points if felt like we were on another planet! Ride is downhill and pretty easy. All in all a great experience. Highly recommend

Really appreciated how knowledgeable Ben is and the way he answered all of our questions. The ride itself is quite remarkable! Only disappointment was no Fig shake because the shop is closed for the season. Next time...

This was an amazing adventure! We are locals but hadn’t been to the canyons. Big Wheel tours to used everything we needed for an easy, recreational bike ride/outdoor adventure. You see 3 different eco zones and it really is an easy ride. Tom was our tour guide and he was absolutely wonderful. Very knowledgeable, fun and attentive. While you ride, the tour company sags to block traffic and provide Water, snacks and information as needed. Highly recommended!

Our guide Tom was great; prompt, friendly, well-prepared and knowledgeable. The rock formations we rode through were amazing and it was nice to reach the Salton Sea. The ride was very flat/slightly downhill so pleasant not arduous. Our group was all 60+ year olds but managed fine.

Fun trip! Jeff is an encyclopedia of knowledge, talked a lot about the geology of the area on the drive up to the start of the bike trip. Then we rolled along, only pedaling on occasion, while he drove behind as a safety. We stopped a few times so he could point out some features. Overall a fun, educational and gentle exercise. Recommended!

This was a great adventure! I love to bike while seeing new things, so this was perfect! And all downhill or flat- bonus! Tom, my guide, was very knowledgeable about the area. I’ll be recommending him and Big Wheel to all my friends!
