Delightful guided hike with Carlos
jennifer_s
, May 2022
I thoroughly enjoyed my guided hike with Carlos. Of course i could have easily hiked on my own, but it was so much more enjoyable with Carlos. Through Carlos I learned about the area, fauna and habitat, he was also delightful hiking companion who came well prepared with gear for both of us. Carlos is very thoughtful, generous and kind, it made the hike all the more enjoyable. Thanks again!!
Great way to spend a morning

Carlos is a great hiking tour guide. He made sure we were well hydrated and took stops so we could catch our breath. He had a lot of information on the flora and fauna of the place, as well as some history on the geographical landscape and surrounding homes. Overall amazing!

Carlos was extremely kind, patient, helpful and knowledgeable. We appreciated the deep insight he had into the surrounding areas, the history, describing the vegetation, and always stopping to offer to take photos along the way. The weather was beautiful - only surpassed by the amazing views. Afterwards, he provided us with many great foodie suggestions in the area. Would definitely use him again. Thank you!!
Good hike, great guide!

Super fun hike with great views. Carlos was a wonderful guide and is very knowledgeable about the terrain, flora and history of the area. I was visiting Palm Springs and wanted to do a hike, but not alone for safety reasons, so this turned out to be a good fit. Thanks Carlos for a fun morning.

Carlos was prepared personable and knowledgeable. He knew the names of many plants and how they were used by Native Americans. He saw big horn sheep and was able to show them to us. He offered to take pictures and had great ideas about where the best views and pictures were to be had. I would highly recommend a guided hike
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
