Group itinerary

Bienvenidos a Baja California Sur! After landing in San José del Cabo, check into your hotel and settle in. Spend the afternoon at your own pace stroll through the charming historic center, browse local art galleries, or lounge at a nearby beach club and soak in your first taste of Baja sunshine.

In the evening, we’ll gather for welcome drinks and a laid-back group dinner. Expect relaxed vibes, local flavors, and an easy start to your Baja adventure.

Kick off the morning with a drive north along Baja’s stunning coastline. Our first stop is Todos Santos, a creative surf town known for its galleries, cafés, and striking desert-meets-ocean landscapes. Enjoy a group lunch before continuing on to La Paz.

Once checked in, we’ll explore La Paz after dark on a guided walking food tour, sampling local bites and soaking in the city’s vibrant evening atmosphere.

Today is all about the sea. Embark on a full-day boat tour to Espíritu Santo Island, snorkel alongside playful sea lions, enjoy a delicious lunch onboard, and unwind on the pristine sands of Balandra Beach one of Mexico’s most beautiful coastlines.

Return in the late afternoon after a day of sun, surf, and spectacular scenery. The evening is yours to either grab a casual dinner or relax after a full day outdoors.

Spend a full day discovering La Paz your way. Opt for a thrilling whale shark swim (in season), relax on the beach, or wander the local markets and cafés to soak up more of the city’s charm.

In the evening, we’ll come together for a farewell dinner one last night of shared stories, delicious food, and Baja magic.

All good things come to an end. This morning, take the complimentary group shuttle to the airport and say goodbye to Baja California Sur. Leave with a camera full of memories, a sun-kissed glow, and a group of new friends.

    Please keep in mind that our itinerary, activities, and hotels might change. These adjustments could happen with little notice due to factors like availability, weather conditions, seasonal shifts, or other circumstances beyond our control. Rest assured, we always aim to minimise any impact on your experience. Occasionally, we may tweak the itinerary to try out fresh ideas and keep the adventure exciting.

    We believe solo travelers shouldn’t have to pay extra to explore the world. That’s why our group trips are designed around shared accommodation and do not include a single supplement. Solo travelers joining our group trips are paired in twin or multi-share rooms with another traveler of the same sex for the duration of the trip.

    Some of our Independent trips are structured differently. For these itineraries, solo travelers will need to book at the single occupancy rate.

    Tips are not included in the cost of this tour. Remember, tipping is entirely at your discretion and based on what you feel comfortable with.
