Los Cabos: Migriño Beach ATV Tour & Tequila TastingYou’ll ride an ATV across Migriño Beach’s wild dunes in Los Cabos with a local guide leading the way — maybe spotting whales if you’re lucky — then wind down with real tequila tasting by the ocean air. Pickup is included so you can just show up ready for adventure (and dust).
La Paz & Balandra: Catamaran Snorkel, Sea Lions & Beach LunchYou’ll start your day with a local welcome in La Paz before boarding a French catamaran bound for Balandra Beach. Snorkel among playful sea lions, kayak hidden coves, then enjoy homemade lunch and drinks onboard. It’s not just about swimming—it’s that feeling of sun on your skin and Baja salt in your hair that lingers long after you’re back on land.
Cabo San Lucas: Jet Ski & Fast Boat Tour Sea of CortezYou’ll jump straight into Cabo’s wild side with this guided double jet ski & fast boat ride in the Sea of Cortez. Snap photos at Land’s End, zip past luxury homes with your local guide leading the way, and maybe spot dolphins or whales if luck’s on your side. Finish with snacks back at the marina — and probably a grin stuck on your face for hours.
San Jose del Cabo: Desert UTV & Beach Ride with TequilaYou ride a UTV through Migrino desert, up into the mountains, and down to the Pacific beaches in one loop—a route that's twice as long as most competitors' courses. A guide handles navigation and shares details about the landscape; you bring your own camera. The tour includes safety gear, water, and a tequila tasting once you're back. Transportation from your hotel is included, and the pace adapts to your comfort level.Is it for me?Book this if you want to see the actual Baja landscape—desert, mountain, and beach in one ride—without arranging your own vehicle or worrying about navigation; the longer route and adapted pace are what make it possible to cover three terrains in a single morning.
Cabo San Lucas: Sunset Cruise & Unlimited Drinks by El ArcoYou’ll board a lively sunset cruise in Cabo San Lucas with unlimited drinks flowing and snacks on hand. Take in close-up views of El Arco, watch for sea lions lounging nearby, and maybe catch whales if you’re lucky. The golden light as you drift into the Pacific is something that stays with you long after you’re back on shore.
Santa Maria & Chileno Bay kayak and snorkel tourA kayak and snorkel outing at Santa Maria and Chileno Bay in the Sea of Cortez combines paddling along volcanic cliffs with guided snorkeling in one of Los Cabos' most protected reef zones. The experience runs roughly two hours, includes a certified bilingual guide, all equipment, and round-trip transport from selected areas. Ocean conditions may limit the route to a single bay, though snorkeling and beach time continue either way.Is it for me?The kayaking requires basic fitness and comfort in the water, and paddling a tandem kayak with another person means coordinating rhythm—this is not a solo paddle or a guided tour where someone else does the work. If you have a free morning and want to move between two different reef systems rather than stay in one spot, the route and the guide make both bays reachable in a single outing.
ATV Riding in Los Cabos: Desert, Mountain & BeachATV riding in Los Cabos takes you through the Migrino desert, up mountain trails and down to the Pacific beaches on an automatic off-road vehicle—a two-hour multi-terrain loop with a live guide, safety equipment and tequila tasting. Transportation by van is included, and children from age 4 can ride. The route moves fast enough to feel the rush but stays grounded in the landscape: century-old cactus, Baja wildlife and the ocean view at the end.Is it for me?Book the ATV Single if you want to operate your own machine the whole way; choose ATV Double if you'd rather ride as a passenger or want to share the experience with someone else; pick Sunset ATV if you're free in the late afternoon and want the ride to end as the light fades over the ocean.
Arch of Cabo San Lucas boat tour: Shared tour to El ArcoA shared boat tour in Cabo San Lucas takes you through the bay to El Arco, the iconic rock archway marking the tip of Baja California where the Pacific and the Sea of Cortez converge. The tour passes Pelican Rock, a sea lions colony, and the pirate's cave on a route an English or Spanish-speaking guide leads; the boat has a restroom on board. You can add a beach landing for an extra cost, with return times at 1:15 p.m., 3:15 p.m., or 4:15 p.m., subject to weather.Is it for me?Book this shared tour if you want the bay's main sights—El Arco, Pelican Rock, the sea lions—without arranging a private boat; the fixed schedule and included guide handle the navigation and timing, so you step on board and the route unfolds.
Cabo San Lucas: El Arco Boat Tour & Sea Lion ColonyYou board at Dock #1 on the marina, spend 45 minutes circling El Arco and five other landmarks with a bilingual guide, see sea lions and fish through the glass-bottom window, and return to the same dock. Life jackets and all fees are included; departures run throughout the day so you can book around your schedule.Is it for me?Right choice if you're staying in or near Cabo San Lucas and want to see El Arco and the marine life around it without arranging a full-day excursion. The 45-minute window means you can fit it into a half-day, and departures run all afternoon, so you're not locked into an early start.
SJD Airport to Cabo San Lucas Private Ride with BeerYou get a private vehicle with a bilingual driver waiting at SJD Airport arrivals, bottled water and beers included, and a fixed price to your Cabo San Lucas hotel. No negotiating, no shared shuttle, no guessing how long the drive will take. If you're returning, pickup happens two and a half hours before your flight — the timing that actually gets you to the gate on time.Is it for me?Book this if you want to skip the airport taxi line and arrive knowing exactly what you'll pay — the fixed price and private vehicle mean you start your Cabo vacation calm instead of negotiating at the curb.
Los Cabos: Costa Azul Zipline, Suspension Bridge & Tequila TastingYou’ll launch yourself across canyons on seven ziplines near Los Cabos, test your nerve on a suspension bridge, rappel down real rock walls, then unwind with local tequila tasting under the Baja sun. Pickup from most hotels makes it easy to join in — just bring your sense of adventure (and maybe leave your pride behind on the racing cable).
San José del Cabo: Historical Walking Tour & Art DistrictYou walk 1.5 hours through San José del Cabo's Art District, stopping at the mission church, estuary, and Mijares Square while a local guide explains the peninsula's colonial history, native heritage, and local legends. The tour is wheelchair accessible and supports community education projects. Minimum two people required to book.Is it for me?Book this if you want to understand San José del Cabo's colonial and indigenous history without arranging a separate guide — the local expertise and community connection make the 90 minutes feel like an insider's introduction rather than a standard sightseeing loop.
Todos Santos Day Trip from Cabo San Lucas: Art, History & LunchThis six-hour small group tour departs Cabo San Lucas for Todos Santos, a Pacific Coast settlement halfway between La Paz and Cabo on Highway 19, with hotel pickup included. The day moves through the Old Jesuit Mission and one of Baja's oldest theaters, an art walk of galleries, a Mexican blanket factory, a pearl demonstration, and the iconic Hotel California, ending with lunch at a traditional restaurant in the town center. Children from age 5 are welcome; the guide speaks English and Spanish.Is it for me?The live guide in both English and Spanish means you follow the history and stories comfortably in whichever language works for you. If you want the colonial and cultural layers of Todos Santos explained as you walk, rather than reading plaques on your own, this small group format delivers that without the pace of a larger tour.
Cabo San Lucas: Snorkeling Cruise, Arch & Open BarYou board a spacious trimaran at Cabo's main marina, cruise past the iconic Arch of Cabo San Lucas with time for photos, then snorkel at Santa Maria Bay with included gear and paddleboards. Lunch, an open bar, and a crew that handles the logistics means you spend three hours on the water without arranging anything else. Whale season runs December through April if timing works out.Is it for me?Book this if you want the Arch, snorkeling, and a full meal without arranging transport, gear rental, or lunch separately—the three-hour window and included open bar mean you're not watching the clock or your budget between stops.
Cabo San Lucas: Tequila & Mezcal Tasting with Food PairingYou’ll sip handmade tequila and mezcal in Cabo San Lucas, guided by locals who know their spirits inside out. Taste pairings from dark chocolate to grasshoppers (if you’re brave), and laugh over language mix-ups or new flavors. Accessible for all, this is less about drinking and more about sharing stories around the table.
Los Cabos Airport to Downtown: Private Transfer & Welcome DrinkYou get picked up at the airport terminal with a sign bearing your name, a welcome drink in hand, and a direct route to your downtown Cabo accommodation — no waiting for a shuttle, no negotiating with a taxi driver, no confusion about which vehicle is yours. The driver handles the route while you settle in, and the price is fixed before you arrive.Is it for me?Book this if you want to skip the taxi negotiation and arrive at your accommodation without arranging transport or worrying about finding the right vehicle — the fixed price and named pickup point are what make the whole thing frictionless.

The class takes place in a private area of an exclusive restaurant, with groups kept small for hands-on instruction. Brunch and beverages are included; the guide speaks English and Spanish. Minimum age is 18.Is it for me?Book this class if you have a free afternoon in Cabo and want hands-on cooking instruction rather than a demonstration—you're the one doing the cooking, not watching from a seat. The small group keeps the pace manageable and the attention personal, which works well whether you're traveling as a couple or with family.
Viper Trail UTV in Cabo San Lucas: 25 km off-road routeThe Viper Trail is a 25 km off-road UTV activity in Cabo San Lucas where you drive a Can-Am 800 two-seater side-by-side through diverse Baja terrain on a private, one-way route.

The operator sits 10 minutes from Cabo, making this the closest full-day UTV option to town.Is it for me?Small groups keep the private trail uncrowded and the guide focused. Book this if you want to drive your own vehicle through terrain most Cabo visitors don't reach, and you're comfortable with three hours of uneven ground and throttle control.
Boat, Camel & Lunch in Cabo San Lucas: Land's End & Beach RideA combo tour in Cabo San Lucas that pairs a fast boat ride to Land's End and the sea lion colony with a camel ride on a secluded beach and a Mexican buffet lunch, all with hotel pickup and a live guide in English or Spanish. The tour runs 4 hours plus transportation. Children from age 5 are welcome; a $25 park entrance fee is paid at check-in. Cameras are not permitted during the camel ride.Is it for me?The tour moves at a steady pace—boat, van, camel, lunch—so it suits travelers who want to see and do several things without long stretches of waiting or walking. The camel ride and boat are the physical anchors; if you have spinal concerns or limited mobility, this one is not the fit. The 4-hour core plus transportation means you're back at your hotel by early afternoon, which works well if you have other plans or an evening flight.
