You'll see sea lions from a glass-bottomed boat and watch artisans shape recycled glass by hand.

The Two Capes City Tour is a seven-hour guided tour of Los Cabos combining three stops: a blown-glass factory where artisans work with recycled materials, a glass-bottomed boat ride to Land's End to spot Sea of Cortez wildlife, and a walking tour of San Jose del Cabo's historical center with Mexican lunch included. A live guide in English or Spanish leads the day, and hotel pickup is included.

The Experience

You start at a blown-glass factory where artisans demonstrate how they shape recycled glass into colorful pieces using techniques passed down through generations. You'll watch the process unfold and can taste samples of homemade tequila made using traditional methods. This gives you a real sense of how the craft works before you move on.

The centerpiece is a glass-bottomed boat that takes you out to Land's End, the dramatic rock formation at the tip of the peninsula where the Pacific and the Sea of Cortez meet. From your seat inside the vessel, you look down through the glass floor to spot fish and other marine life—and if you're lucky, a colony of sea lions. The boat lets you see what lives in these waters without getting wet.

After lunch at a local restaurant serving typical Mexican dishes, your guide takes you through San Jose del Cabo's historical center on foot. You'll see the main plaza, the Municipal Palace and local art galleries while learning about the area's first inhabitants and how the town developed. The whole day runs seven hours with an air-conditioned vehicle handling the transport between stops.
