This hike was very personalized, informative, and allowed us to learn more about the wonders, and hazards, that Joshua Tree National Park has to offer. Our guide, Sarah, was very attentive to our needs and expectations of this guided hike and provided us with an exceptional tour of an area of the park we would not have experienced without her expertise.

I had such a great day in Joshua Tree with Travis! I decided to book a full-day hike through Wandering Mojave since I was traveling alone, and I am so glad I did. We spent the day exploring the backcountry, completely away from all other visitors. Travis is a wealth of knowledge about the local geological area, flora, and fauna. It was such a great way to learn about the surroundings. A truly unique and personal experience. Even better that you don't have to worry about doing much research beforehand or getting lost. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a special experience in this incredible desert, whether traveling solo or with a group.

I traveled solo to Joshua Tree and had one of the most memorable experiences of my life getting to explore the park with my guide, Sarah. She was so incredibly knowledgeable about the park, its geology, the plants and animals we saw, and the area in general. She is a local and it’s very evident that she knows her stuff. We had a wonderful day exploring the rock formations in the Wonderland, and Sarah was always so supportive in making sure I felt safe and comfortable with anything we did. She lent me a raincoat when we experienced some unexpected snow on the peaks, and she even drove me around in her car to explore some of the more distant parts of the park. I learned so much about the park and the area after our full-day hike, and this experience has inspired me to continue traveling and visiting more amazing places. Just wish I could take Sarah with me to show me around all these parks! She was truly the best guide I could have had for the trip, and this experience was one of the highlights of my solo trip to So Cal. Highly recommend or for sure!

What a day. Fantastic tour with Travis at Wandering Mojave! Saw the woodlands and did some great rock climbing to access spectacular views. Learned a lot about local ecology, plant life and animals. Would highly recommend. Thanks Travis!!!

My daughter and I went on a full day hike with Travis. We had the perfect day hiking with Travis who took us to a location off the beaten path. Travis was an excellent guide who was able to gauge very quickly what we were interested in experiencing and what the level of difficulty was that we could handle on a full day hike. We did some rock scrambling early on and then had a simpler hike later in the day. I highly recommend booking a hike with Travis. We had a unique experience and felt privileged that we were able to see an area of the park most people will never get to go to. Our heartfelt thanks to Travis for helping my daughter and I create wonderful memories together at Joshua Tree National Park.
