The Experience
What makes this tour work is the private vehicle and driver who know where to stop. You start by driving through the city, asking your guide about local life and the main activities that shape Ensenada. The route itself becomes part of the day—you can pull over at a taqueria, a pharmacy, a landscape worth photographing—without the timing pressure of a shared tour. The guide stays with you the whole time, so questions get answered and the stops make sense.
La Bufadora is one of the world's largest marine geysers, and the jets of water reach 100 feet high with an impressive sound that carries across the cove. You walk the grounds at your own pace, then move into the flea market attached to it. The market is where the regional food and drink happen—gratin clams, tequila, pina coladas, tacos, churros, traditional sweets—and where you can buy handmade items from local artisans. Your guide is there the whole time to help you navigate, answer questions and make sure you get what you came for.
The return follows the same flexible route: you can make additional stops on the way back to your starting point if something catches your eye. The vehicle is air-conditioned and sized for your group, so everyone travels together in one car. Water bottles and soft drinks come with you, and if you're traveling with infants or small children, specialized seats are available on request.
What’s included
- Private roundtrip transportation in a clean, air-conditioned vehicle sized for your group.
- water bottles and soft drinks throughout the day.
- a guide in English or Spanish who stays with you the entire time.
- specialized infant seats available on request.
