What to do and see in San Jose del Cabo, Baja California Sur: The Best Bus Tours

March 20, 2022 Dorsey Hagwood

With its 18th-century Spanish colonial architecture and laid-back local scene, San Jose del Cabo provides a low-key Baja Peninsula counterpart to fun-loving Cabo San Lucas 20 miles south. Scuba dive and kayak in Cabo Pulmo Marine Park, home to the Sea of Cortez's only hard coral reef and the wreck of the fishing boat Colima. Visit the 200 bird species that live in the tranquil San Jose's Estuary and Bird Sanctuary. Sunbathers will fall in love with Playa Palmilla, one of Mexico's best beaches.

Tour was beyond horrible. Worst 11 hr day.....Highlight should be Balandra and that's what description states. Your company misled entire van of tourists and didn't even get into Balandra at all so no great views nor mushroom rock. Forget any pictures. Went to ghetto beach that was filthy, fly infested and not 1 person even went in water. Everyone just stood there in disbelief this is what we get for price paid. No upbeat morale from guides when picked up from Krystal resort or go over itinerary for day just so everyone on same page or have idea what to expect. Not much knowledge and when went to locations never given exact time like normally where told my watch is this time meet back at such time so everyone on same page. Pearl store, guy doing demonstration was rude and actually used unprofessional language around a child in group. All can say did we learn anything from our trip, absolutely not when it came to culture or history from area. Breakfast stop was only highlight of entire day. Lunch at restaurant lacked service and quality. Soup never came after asked 3 times and orders were confused when brought among entire group by staff. Unfortunately only had limited time in Cabo and this wasted valuable 11 hr day with nothing positive to say nor pictures of Balandra or mushroom rock. No memory captured except unpleasant horrible experience. Tour company and guides should be ashamed of themselves.

We booked this hike for our last day in Cabo. Little did we know we would save the very best until last. What a way to remember the Baja Peninsula! From the moment we met Danny, we knew this was going to be a really fun excursion. Turns out both my husband and Danny are rock climbers and that jump started our conversation. From there, Danny shared information on Cabo, the highway we traveled to Todos Santos and the history of Todos Santos itself. After a tour of the town that included more interesting facts and history, we went to an open air restaurant he recommended and were treated to some of the best food we have had anywhere. From there we headed to the "trailhead" for the sunset hike which started from the locals fishing beach. It was refreshing to hike an area we had entirely to ourselves, learn about some of the native plants, scramble up rocks and take in the incredible vistas at the top. We made it to our destination in time to watch and listen to a colony of sea lions swimming and barking below us. Pretty sure Danny arranged that too. He was that good. (: If you can only choose one thing to do while in Cabo, make sure it's this hike!

I booked transportation and several tours through the Cabo day trip. They are very responsible and always responded very quickly. The snorkeling tour we booked was canceled because of the condition of the ocean, we took a camel ride tour instead. It was more interesting than I expected, and my daughter loved it especially because we could see various animals.I recommend this if you have small children.

You will have a wonderful experience with the Seven Zip Lines we have for you. There is also a suspension bridge and rapel. You will be walking up the mountains trough Cactus and if you're lucky regional wild life, it may be exhausting however well worth it, especially when you are zipping down the canyon. The guides are very considerate of all the different levels and capabilities of everyone during the adventure. Everything will be with safety first in mind. You will definitely do it again in a heartbeat! At the end of your adventure you will experience a Damiana Liqueur tasting at the Factory tour. What other way to close this amazing experience?

The only enjoyable part of this experience is when u get on the ATV. We were scheduled for 1 pm, pick up at 1230. We were still picking others up until 130. The driver DID NOT explain what we were doing, how many more stops or how FAR out the excursion was (20-30 min drive). We arrived at 2 unsure if we would still be allowed to ride..we waited in a LONG line for another 20 minutes and then we were hit with MORE FEES. We were aware of the $20 pp park entry but NOT the $25 insurance (which if you waive they hold $1000 on your card as a deposit) and the $85 fee to upgrade to the automatic ATV. the ATV offered in this package is manual and if you break, you buy. The ATV guide, Elmo, was GREAT and views were awesome. I expected to be on the beach but we went through more desert terrain adjacent to the beach. Its was hilly and rocky but even for my first time, not difficult. The tacos offered after were just okay. When we finished we were not sure about the shuttle (again,driver told us nothing) so we went down to the shuttle area, found our van. There were others who did not come with us on the van, we got on and noticed that people from our drive up, had no room to go back with us. THEY LEFT THEM AND MADE THEM WAIT FOR ANOTHER VAN...wow. In all, would not go back to this company but I enjoyed the experience.
