About the operator
- Michael J00Best guide everWe were so lucky/blessed to have Bryan as our guide(I’d read about him on trip advisor).. Anyway he was as good as advertised; made our two couples feel safe and he was so knowledgeable about where to go and how to get the best out of our trip. Sitting at Lydia’s eating our food, which was delicious we watched as the ship’s tour buses departed and it looked like such a canned experience. With Bryan we were treated to a trip that he catered to our wants or needs with whatever add-on we could of reasonably wanted. We went to La Bufadora and shopped at the shops Bryan knew would be fair and with good quality. We then drove to have delicious Mariscos at a wonderful spot Bryan knew of, while we were there Bryan slipped off and returned with a wonderful small cake with candles included for the birthday girl in our group, we wrapped up our trip with a good Mezcal tasting and we’re able to purchase wine in Ensenada which is one of the best known wine regions in North America. Our group was so happy that we got Bryan’s info for our next time back
- Vacationer78707200Ensenada TourBrian was amazing. He took us all over, even to horseback riding on the beach (which we didn’t know we could do) (and was only $25 for quiet pleasant experience) and then to la bufadora and several other spots, all included on the private tour. We loved it ! He gave us a lot of tips (including bargaining tips) and provided a lot of helpful insight into the city!
- 781manishh00Amazing experience!The tour Guide and the driver was very good. The guide was joyful and very interesting. The experience was an awesome!
- 318shead00Very dissapointingWhile our driver was very nice, he was just a local taxi cab driver. The beginning of our tour did not start off very well at all and we nearly walked away and requested a refund. The individual we met outside the port first tried putting my family of 5 (including three children) into a Toyota Corolla (see attached picture, another taxi keep in mind) and argued with us that it was safe and there weren't seatbelt laws in Mexico we needed to worry about. Even after I explained I called the week prior and spoke with an individual named Brayan who promised we'd be in a van large enough to SAFELY transport my family, the guy continued to argue with me insisting we get in the sedan. As we were walking away he told us to wait and said he'd find another car. Ten minutes later a minivan taxi pulled up and the we loaded up. There was nothing personalized about our experience, he simply drove us to and from La Bufadora - no stops anywhere else, no assistance with dinning or restrooms that other reviews mentioned. I'm torn because while this was less expensive than the excursions offered through the cruise ship, we were ultimately disappointed in our experience as it was nothing close to the some of the other reviews left. Anyone can access La Bufadora - this experience doesn't grant you access you wouldn't or couldn't receive on your own. We basically just paid for a private taxi ride to and from the port - no other stops, no help with street vendors, restaurants or restrooms. I wouldn't not recommend this and look for other providers.
- Nibesh P00Great experience. Family friendly and professionalBooked this trip for my family through Tripadvisor and had a great experience. Beyond expectations I say. We were on a cruise to Ensenada and this was the first time we were visiting Mexico. Tripadvisor team called soon after the ship docked and kept directing us to the way to the van. There, we met Lucy our driver. She was very courteous and knowledgeable. Took us in an suv dedicated for us. Showed around the place. Had some great food. Did some shopping.Then took us to other places too as per our request. Great experience.
- B350ZHdavidb00A great tour made better by a great guideOur driver/guide was very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. She helped make the tour special for us. Of course the views were great and we got plenty of great pictures.
- Debra W00Personalized tour, excellent guide!We booked this tour on Tripadvisor instead of paying a lot more for the excursion from the cruise. It was definitely a great decision! It was easy to find the driver just outside the port. You have to walk outside the main terminal, but it was a short walk, and the driver was able to call us and tell us where to meet him. Unfortunately, there was some road construction, so it took almost an hour to get to La Bufadora. Without the construction, it is only 30 to 40 minute drive. Our tour guide, Erik, was very informative, and made sure that we had a great experience. On the way home my girls wanted to stop at the ocean. He was very patient and waited for us to do a little swimming before heading back to the cruise. This is definitely a personalized tour experience. Highly Recommend!!
- angelocT7201DR00Worth seeing!Our driver was nice but did not speak much English. Vehicle was an old Taxi van. Not very comfortable.
- Greg T00La Bufadora tour - including stops at Pai Pai, beach and restroomsEric was our awesome guide and driver. We all felt very safe in his company including my skeptical 87yr old Chinese mother-in-law. Eric made us feel completely at ease. Very honest, well spoken and gave us great advice dealing with souvenir booth hustlers. Also saved tables so we could eat, ordered our food and showed us where clean restrooms were. We all left very pleased!
- Christine m00This is only for transportation! No zoo packagesThis is just for the transportation! Only the drive is what you are paying for- Had to walk from the ship about 10 mins and look for some random driver. So a little awkward to start but had a English speaking tour guide and her 8 year old daughter. She was nice and informative
- erierise00Go For ItHad a lovely time and felt like I was in good hands. Very professional and knowledgeable. Truly enjoyed our trip.
- Stay4010558226100Worth the price!Bryan was our tour guide and he was awesome! He was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful! It was totally worth it having a private tour guide!
- Heather D00A MUST!!!! Packed so much fun in 6 hrsDon’t listen to any bad reviews on this transportation service. Just read what you are paying for it is so worth it. You are paying for a tour guide and transportation. Does not include tickets to anything.Bryan gave us a short tour of the city then took us to PAI PAI and gave us pointers on what packages are best to purchase which saved us money based on what we wanted to do. I recommend not spending the whole day at pai pai because you have the transportation for the rest of the time and they can recommend some great things to do and places to eat. We saw and interacted with some amazing animals and then Bryan took us horseback riding on th the beach. Our teens had a blast. Then went to eat at a local spot to eat fresh seafood and listen to live local musicians.we usually book with Carnival and went outside of the box for this one. And I will use this service every time we go from now on. TIPS: bring small bills to pay for extras and don’t forget to TIP!!
- Inspire0163821889000Cruise ExcursionJose was a great driver- we enjoyed the experience! If we are in the area again we will call - thank you
- luiscB2317SN00La Bufadora tourBeautiful natural wonder! Glad to have gone but would not likely return due to long drive, aggressive vendors that you must walk through to see the site. Our guide was kind, Spanish speaking only, not knowledgeable about the actual location but local and very willing to stop where we requested and to try his best to answer our questions.

Excellent service and very professional from pickup to drop off. I was worried about how reputable they were even after seeing all the good reviews. I didn’t want to book through the ship as the prices are outrageous. So I did this independently and we couldn’t have been happier with our service. Drivers were very professional stayed with us the entire time and made the whole experience enjoyable for our family. We never felt unsafe, and it was great to have a locals as your personal guide! Thx Giovanni and Alex. We loved our experience!

Our Tour guide was amazing, he was kind and he drove us around, this is a private tour does not include anything except driving you around town, you have to pay for ziplining, for the food, for petting the animals. you are paying to have a private driver to take you around town and you have to pay for all activates., It worked out or our family.

What an excellent experience in Ensenada. Our driver, Brian, ( I think that was his name) was such a fascinating person who kept us entertained throughout our time with him. The car was immaculately clean, although at the end of the journey he would have needed to give the outside a good wash due to the muddy roads. We unfortunately were not able to get to the Eco park due to heavy rains over the previous two days which caused massive traffic congestion on the main road out of Ensenada. Our driver stayed with us all through the tour explaining the best market stalls to purchase drinks and food from whilst at Bufadora. He even took us on a tour of Ensenada to make up for missing out on the Ecopark. Definitely recommend this company for a private tour and a big thank you to our driver for driving through some pretty horrendous road conditions and keeping us entertained at the same time.

The trip was excellent!! Our guide Carlos was amazing and very informative and especially super patient, every location we went he had suggestions and always told us to take our time so we never felt rushed. Our favorite part was the Zipline at las Cañadas (paid extra at the park). The Bufadora was a great place to buy souvenirs and to see the water shoot up in the air coming out of the ocean, simply beautiful! Lastly, the meal included was delicious! My teenage son said that the tacos there were the best he’s ever had. We went back the next day and ate there again! Overall a great experience.

We ABSOLUTELY loved our tour. Eric was our guide and treated us like family. We got so much out of the city thanks to him. Most of the people on the cruise stayed down main street but thanks to Eric we saw so much more. The zip lines are worth every penny and La Bufadora was so cool! The market there would have been overwhelming without Eric we we’re grateful to have him with us. You should definitely book this tour and request Eric!

If I could give 0 stars I would. I booked this tour for our family of 7 - 2 adults and 5 children. They sent a 7 passenger CAR and we couldn't all fit (ummmm the driver makes us a party of EIGHT). We had to put our 7yo in the middle of the back row and have her share a seatbelt. When I called the owner he said that the car was for 7 passengers - HELLLLLLLLO with a driver we are EIGHT. He said he figured the 5 kids were small and could squeeze in the car - this is unacceptable. It's unsafe and was uncomfortable. They should have sent a van. I was able to get a partial refund but it was very disappointing. And I shouldn't have to spend 20mins arguing with the owner on why this was not ok. Do better.

An absolutely wonderful way to see and learn about Ensenada in a short time. Our tour guide, Brayan, was a pure delight. Very knowledgable, spoke perfect English, had a great sense of humor and felt like one of the family by the end of the day. All of the stops were a ton of fun. Ziplining is an extra charge, but we knew that going in (well worth the price, by the way). Lunch was included and was very delicious. The Bufadora is pretty, but hardly the highlight of the trip. The interactions with the people, the food, the animals and the gorgeous scenery - especially where we ziplined - were the highllights for me. Be sure to bring small bills or change for the public restrooms in certain areas. While they are clean and well maintained, they do cost a tiny fee to use. Highly recommend this private tour over a large group bus any day! Enjoy!

When we departed the ship, our driver was not there to pick us up yet. We were a bit confused about where to meet him and other people kept offering to take us around. Thankfully he showed up and we were off. I loved the Canopy Tour and lunch was good. My younger daughter didn't want to go on the bridges as we got higher up and she just took the pathway to the next zipline. I personally would have liked more time to shop but we had a group of 7 and getting everyone from one place to another took time and we stopped to take some pictures. There was a wait for food as the lunch spot is popular. They take credit cards. The blow hole was neat, but I could have skipped it. Our guide was great and very friendly. We ran into traffic heading back to the boat, but we made it on time. I wish I had written this review earlier so I would have remembered his name.

Eric and Brian were absolutely great. They kept track of our time off the cruise ship, got us to all the activities we wanted to do, and answered all our questions about Ensenada and living there. The zip line was very very fun, all ages enjoyed it (15 to 72). We would definitely book a tour with them again!

Hello. We will be there next week by cruise. We are a group of seven - 5 adults, 2 children. What is the cost of the Zipline? We tried to book the tour but it wants us to put down a hotel. We are coming by cruise ship. Should I just choose the option that says we haven't booked a hotel yet?
My friends and I are coming in November for my birthday. But not by cruise, how do we get rides if we aren’t meeting by cruise?

HI how can you talk to a person like Carlos for this event? Looking to book in April 2022 for a family of 4 but instead of zipline taking the ATV's? Thank you

What activity is NOT included in the tour price and how much does it cost? We are booked for a tour in October and want to be prepared for additional costs:)
Also, what would you say is an acceptable amount to tip?

After reading the other Q&A I discovered that the Ziplining ($22/person) and the ATVs ($35/person)are paid separately directly to the park for the best rate:)

Hello, I am planning a trip for my wife and I for the end of the month (February 2021). She doesn't speak Spanish are there English speaker guides going to be available? Also with the ziplining is there a weight limit? And one more how is all the traveling happening? Do we take our own vehicle? Now because of Covid can we take our own car and follow if available?
