Highlights

This is a unique hiking experience where we will explore the hidden waterfalls of Santiago! This adventure will immerse you into the natural wonders of Baja on a hike down a canyon to a magical waterfall where you can swim, jump, relax, and explore the beautiful wild surroundings! A natural gem hidden from the huge resorts and busy attractions of Los Cabos! On the way back we stop to enjoy some delicious craft ice cream to refresh our taste buds! I also offer the option to stop for lunch at a delicious and authentic Mexican family restaurant which I really recommend! Important Notes: *The total time of the trip is 7 hours approximately, including transportation time (1 - 1.5 hours each way depending on your hotels location). It is a bit of a far drive but you get to see the countryside of Los Cabos on a very beautiful ride along the way! *Please bring some comfy shoes for the hike and your swimsuits.

  • 5Amazing Adventure. Hidden Gems

    Carlos was an awesome guide. Very flexible and gave us a lot of options to fit our needs and abilities. We saw many beautiful sights that most people would not get to. We have done many tours but this one was one of the best ones ever. The hike can be challenging but Carlos adjusts to your level. Of course the better shape you’re in the more cool stuff you’ll get to see

  • 4An Amazing Canyon Adventure with an Outstanding Guide

    We had a great experience on the Waterfall Canyon hike! Our guide, Carlos, was outstanding: friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly very familiar with the area and the locals. He made us feel comfortable throughout the adventure and shared interesting information about the canyon, vegetation and local land ownership. Unfortunately, we visited during a time when there wasn’t much water flowing over the waterfall, but Carlos took us farther into the canyon to a beautiful swimming spot that made the trip worthwhile. The hike was definitely hot, so be prepared and bring plenty of water or sports drinks. We stopped prior to hiking at a local supermarket to stock up on Gatorade and fruit before heading out. The drive to the trailhead was easy on the highway, and the dirt roads off of the highway added to the sense of adventure. After the hike, we stopped at a local Mexican restaurant in a nearby village where we had some of the best lobster tacos and margaritas of our trip. It was a little more expensive than we expected for a small local restaurant, but the food was excellent. Overall, this was a fun adventure, and Carlos made the experience memorable. We’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore a different side of Cabo, just be aware that the amount of water at the waterfall depends on the season.

  • 5You can't go wrong with Good Trips Baja!

    We booked with Max to take a tour with Carlos, who came highly recommended by one of my collogues and he did not disappoint! The location of the hike was in the mountains, and he brought us through a loop on dirt roads to the highway, sharing the history of the surrounding area, how the lands are maintained by the families and community. The hike was moderate, but we followed the river and the oases and the waterfall along the paths were worth the trip. We ended the hike by having lunch nearby in Miraflores and it was delicious. The owner was very welcoming. If you are looking for something to do away from the crowds, Carlos is your guy. He is very accommodating and he lets you set the pace on what you want to do or see!

  • 5My husband and I were...

    My husband and I were alone with our guide Carlos, and he met our desire for activity, adventure and nature. Our trail included about 2 miles of hiking in a riverbed with swim stops, hopping large rocks and navigating beautiful terrain. Carlos was courteous, knowledgable and friendly. I have been to cabo 10 times and this was my first time coming to this area. Would definitely do it again!
