Two hours of adventure at Migriño Beach combine horseback riding and dune buggy rides, making for a memorable outing just 30 minutes north of Cabo San Lucas. For $125 per person, this tour offers a lively mix of nature, adrenaline, and local flavor. You’ll be picked up from your hotel, transported to this secluded stretch of sand, and enjoy about an hour on horseback, followed by an adrenaline-pumping dune buggy session. To top it off, a visit to a small zoo and a tequila tasting round out the experience.
What we love most about this experience is how it balances active fun with local culture—riding on Playa Migriño offers stunning views and a sense of escape, while the tequila tasting provides a taste of authentic Mexican spirit. The small group size ensures personalized attention, making it more than just a quick thrill.
One consideration to keep in mind is that the horseback riding tour involves walking, which might not appeal to those seeking a more vigorous ride. Also, the tour’s cost includes some extras like a $25 beach admission fee and optional collision insurance, so it’s worth considering whether you want those added costs.
This tour is perfect for travelers who want a lively outdoor activity, enjoy mixing adventure with cultural touches, and prefer small-group intimacy. It’s well-suited for those who appreciate scenic coastal views and a taste of local Mexico beyond the usual beach lounging.

What to Expect on the 2-Hour Camel and Dune Buggy Adventure

This tour starts with a convenient pickup at your hotel in Cabo San Lucas, setting the stage for a fun escape to Migriño Beach, a quiet spot about 30 minutes away by car. Once there, you’ll get geared up with helmets, goggles, and bandanas—little details that make a big difference in safety and comfort.
The first activity is horseback riding, which lasts about an hour.

That said, the setting itself is what makes it special—coastal dunes and the expansive beach provide stunning scenery. One reviewer mentioned, “As a horse rider I don’t think I would have liked the horseback riding tour as they only walk,” but also appreciated the dune buggy experience as “so much fun,” especially for adrenaline seekers.
Following the horses, you’ll hop into dune buggies for about an hour of high-energy, off-road fun. These buggies are easy to operate, and you’ll have an instructor if you’re new to driving. The buggies zoom over the dunes, with the ocean in the background—perfect for those craving a thrill.
The tour is finished off with a visit to a small zoo, giving you a chance to see local animals, and a tequila tasting, where knowledgeable guides introduce you to authentic Mexican spirits. The tasting is included, and you can sample some of the best local flavors, a perfect way to unwind after your adventure.
Transport back to Cabo is included, ensuring a hassle-free day without having to worry about directions or taxis.
