5 Day North of Baja Roadtrip - Package
From $ 2,600 USD to $3,200 USD per vehicle, up to 4 people
5 days / 4 nights · fully equipped · activities included
Description
We planned it. You drive it. A 5-day roadtrip through the north of Baja, built for first-timers who want the essentials — wine country, a Pacific fishing town, wetlands, and Mexico’s highest sierra. The route, the campsites, the activities, even where to eat are already dialed in: taco stands, a wine tasting in Valle de Guadalupe, kayaking the San Quintín wetlands, a hike up a volcano, and a surf lesson to close it out. No guide, no guesswork. You pick the vehicle, follow the roadbook, and go.
Itinerary
DAY 1 – Valle de Guadalupe
Your first day runs north into Mexico’s wine country. After pickup and a supply run, you stop in Puerto Nuevo for its famous lobster tacos, then head into Valle de Guadalupe — the heart of Baja’s wine scene. Hike to the hot springs in the afternoon, then close the day with a tasting of five wines at Adobe Guadalupe before camping at El Valle RV Park.
DAY 2 — San Quintín → Terra Peninsular
You head south to San Quintín, a quiet Pacific coast known for its farmland, oysters, and volcanic landscape. Lunch at Restaurante Molino Viejo, then into the Terra Peninsular reserve for a hike up the Sudoeste volcano — a short climb with wide views over the bay. You camp the night at La Palapa, right in the reserve.
DAY 3 — San Quintín Wetlands → Sierra San Pedro Mártir
A morning on the water: a guided kayak tour through the San Quintín wetlands, one of the most important coastal habitats on the peninsula. You pack up camp and grab lunch at the Bahía Falsa oyster farm with Don Ricardo — oysters straight from the water — before driving up into the Sierra San Pedro Mártir, the highest mountain range in Baja. You camp inside the national park under some of the darkest skies in Mexico.
DAY 4 — National Park → Rancho Meling → Campo #9
A morning hike in the Sierra San Pedro Mártir National Park — pine forest and mountain air, a completely different Baja from the coast. Around midday you descend to Rancho Meling, a historic ranch, for lunch, then continue to Campo #9 to catch the sunset over the water. Camp for the night.
DAY 5 — Ensenada → Home
The last stretch heads to Ensenada. You start the morning with a 90-minute surf lesson at Playa Hermosa — good for all levels — then lunch at Agaves right on the beach. Around 3:30 pm you head back north for a 5:00 pm drop-off at Sampa and your transfer to the hotel or airport.

Activities
-
- Wine Tasting : Baja’s wine country, and one of the best in Mexico. Taste five wines at Adobe Guadalupe, set among the vineyards — the kind of stop that surprises people who didn’t know Baja makes world-class wine.
-
- Hot Springs : A short hike out to natural hot springs — the reward after a day on the road and before the tasting.
-
- Kayaking : A guided paddle through one of the peninsula’s most important coastal habitats. Calm water, birdlife, and the quiet side of Baja most visitors never see.
-
- Hiking the Sierra : Baja’s highest mountain range, and a national park that feels like another country — pine forest, mountain air, and some of the darkest night skies in Mexico for stargazing.
- Volcano Hike: A short climb up the Sudoeste volcano inside a protected reserve, with wide views over the San Quintín bay.
- Surfing : Close the trip with a 90-minute lesson at Playa Hermosa — mellow, beginner-friendly waves on the Pacific, with local coaches to get you standing up.
- Fresh Oysters: Oysters straight from the farm with Don Ricardo — one of those local, off-menu experiences you only get when someone’s already mapped the route.
