Only Red Jeep Tours can take you to Metate Ranch, located in the heart of the San Andreas Fault Zone.
On this awe-inspiring OPEN-AIR Jeep Tour, you will travel deep into the heart of California’s world-famous San Andreas Fault and witness the forces of nature that have created amazing, steep-walled canyons and the most twisted and tormented landscapes on Earth!
You will be awestruck by the spectacular scenery as your Jeep winds its way through the bones of the earth. During your adventure, you will stop several times for short nature walks, including a short hike through a slot canyon, if desired.
This tour also stops at a natural palm oasis, where water bubbles up from the ground year-round. Here you will learn about how the Cahuilla Indians used desert plants to survive in this inhospitable environment.
A final highlight is a guided tour of our recreated Cahuilla Indian Village that showcases the lifestyle and culture of the Cahuilla people.

5.00We were on the 2pm tour Sunday March 2nd. We got a call Saturday night asking if we wanted to switch to the morning tour because of the windy afternoon forecast. We ended up having a private tour, because some wusses feared the forecast. It was gorgeous out! I can’t say enough good things about how much fun we had, and all the things we learned from our super wonderful guide, Travis. He was so knowledgeable about the geology, flora, fauna, and native peoples of the area. He took us to collect rocks. We tasted plants. We scrambled through narrow slot canyons. He made a walking stick for one of our group and showed us how the native people used all parts of that plant. It was an amazing adventure, and it was the highlight of our visit to Palm Springs! I hope this review is shared with Travis, so he knows how much fun we had and how much we appreciated his guiding. Here’s a couple of photos of our adventure.
So glad we took this tour!
