Our Desert Oasis Tour recently returned, packed with unforgettable moments and stunning landscapes! We explored the best of Palm Springs, Joshua Tree & Death Valley National Parks, Las Vegas, and so much more.
The adventure kicked off under the bright lights of Las Vegas, with a luxurious 2-night stay at the iconic Bellagio Hotel. From there, we marveled at the engineering wonder of the Hoover Dam, wandered through the rugged beauty of Red Rock Canyon, and discovered the hidden gem that is Death Valley National Park.
The journey continued with the otherworldly landscapes of Joshua Tree National Park and a visit to the Living Desert Zoo and Gardens in Palm Desert, California — a true desert paradise!
