ATV Tour, Camel Ride, Tequila Tasting and Mexican Buffet Lunch

1.ATV Tour, Camel Ride, Tequila Tasting and Mexican Buffet Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3,380 reviews · from $149Our pick

At Tierra Sagrada near San José del Cabo, ride an automatic ATV along cactus-lined desert trails and shallow canyons, then take a camel along the beach. Guides such as Juan, Miguel, Jorge, Alina and Aleman have been praised for their energy and care, though the team can change. Finish with a Mexican buffet and tequila tasting. Budget extra for the entrance and collision fees.

“They split up our group so that more experienced riders could go fast, which was really nice for them! We had to pay an extra $80 each upon arrival for entrance fee and insurance which was a bit of a bait and switch. Lunch was great and the margaritas were strong! $1600 for 6 people total, which included pictures. You can’t take ANY pictures of the camels. I would give five stars if they were up front about price!”

Cabo Migrino Beach and Desert ATV Tour plus Tequila Tasting

2.Cabo Migrino Beach and Desert ATV Tour plus Tequila Tasting

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,367 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $75

Ride an ATV through Migrino’s sandy desert, dry riverbeds, mountain trails, and Pacific beach with a guide such as Javier, Alberto, or Raul. The tour includes safety gear, purified water, shared hotel transfers, and a tequila tasting. Expect an extra $25 park fee per person, optional vehicle insurance, and possible photo costs.

“We got there and yes the fee's were the same. $25/person park fee, $25/35 for insurance and depending on the availability private tour was available. I strongly recommend private guided tour since if you get stuck with slow, not similar skill level, or different expectations it can ruin your experience. My boys wanted to be more "adventurous" and Javier was able to tailor to their expectations in a safe manner. He set the expectations for safety and was very knowledgeable about ATV/UTV. Ask the Javier!!!!”

Los Cabos Arch and Playa del Amor Tour by Glass Bottom Kayak

4.Los Cabos Arch and Playa del Amor Tour by Glass Bottom Kayak

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,317 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $95

Paddle from the beach toward El Arco and Playa del Amor with a small group and a guide such as Hugo, Javier, Marco, or Luis. Look for fish through the kayak’s glass panel, then snorkel near Pelican Rock. The tour costs $95, includes transport, water, snacks, and gear, and lasts about three hours including transport.

“We had an amazing time start to finish. Transportation was included in the cost of the trip and they were right on time. The bus was air conditioned. They offered water and snacks. Although the fiberglass bottom was too roughened to see well it did not matter at all since the visibility of the water allowed the same view. The paddle to the arches was strenuous but not taxing and the snorkel area though busy was not crowded. The guides were exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable and we will definitely book them again on our next trip back.”

I thought the rules to stay in line would be a let down but Our leader did not go easy and let us let the ATV’s loose. The course up into the mountains and then along the beach were above expectations. Highly recommend this excursion!!”
