Bison Expedition

Venture into Catalina Island’s beautiful interior. Experience Santa Catalina Island’s rugged “outback” in an all-terrain, 12-passenger eco-friendly H1 Hummer. Converted to run on biofuel refined from recycled vegetable oil collected from local restaurants, this Hummer is “green.” This is the only scheduled off-road tour that travels into beautiful Cape Canyon where Catalina’s bison can frequently be seen.

This tour ventures down into scenic Middle Canyon and explores Cape Canyon in the heart of Catalina’s interior. You’ll explore truly unique places no other tour company is able to access. Much of this tour is off-road, guests should expect a bumpy, at times dusty, unforgettable adventure and bison tour.

10% of the proceeds go to support the Catalina Island Conservancy.

For your safety, you should be in good health & free from high blood pressure, heart, neck, or back problems, motion sickness, or other conditions that could be aggravated by this exhilarating tour that travels over bumpy, windy, dusty, unpaved and poorly paved roads. Guests who are pregnant cannot ride. This tour is not wheelchair accessible. Guests must be able to transfer on their own and navigate several stairs within the vehicle.
