Combo Off Road 4×4 UTV Camel Ride Lunch and Tequila Tasting

When you’re in San Jose del Cabo and craving a taste of the wild and wonderful, this Combo Off Road 4×4 UTV, Camel Ride, Lunch, and Tequila Tasting gives you a fantastic dose of adventure, culture, and scenic beauty. For around $349 per group (up to two people), you’re getting approximately three and a half hours of action-packed fun, including a UTV desert trek, a camel ride on a quiet beach, an unlimited Mexican buffet, and a spirited tequila tasting session. From the moment we booked, what caught our attention was how seamlessly this tour combines adrenaline and relaxation, along with authentic local flavors.

Two things that really stand out are the professional guides, who bring a sense of safety and humor, and the stunning vistas of canyons, desert trails, and the secluded beach where the camels wait. On the downside, the tour does involve some waiting time—over six hours from start to finish—so it’s ideal if you’re prepared for a full day of fun rather than a quick trip. This tour suits travelers craving variety, authentic experiences, and beautiful scenery — particularly those who appreciate knowledgeable guides and hands-on activities.

An In-Depth Look at the Experience

Starting with the Journey and Pickup

The adventure begins with a scenic drive along Baja’s coast to Tierra Sagrada ranch, roughly 45 minutes from Cabo. This is a highlight in itself, offering glimpses of the Pacific and some of the most rugged landscapes in the region. The tour company offers pickup services, which makes the entire day hassle-free — just confirm your pickup time and location, and you’re good to go.

The UTV Desert Trek

Once you arrive, you’ll be greeted by energetic guides who set a lively tone. You’ll don full protective gear, including helmets, and climb into a double UTV, designed for two. This is a thrilling off-road experience—for most, the highlight of the day. You’ll explore wide canyons and sandy trails, with enough twists and turns to satisfy even experienced drivers.

Reviews highlight guides like Alex and Adán as particularly good at making newcomers feel at ease, explaining the terrain, and keeping safety a priority. The views during the ride are often described as “amazing,” with some reviewers mentioning the variety of routes and “beautiful vistas.” The adrenaline rush combined with the scenic beauty makes this segment a truly memorable part of the tour.

The Camel Ride on a Secluded Beach

After the excitement of the UTV adventure, you’ll head down to the Camel Ranch, located on a quiet stretch of beach overlooking the Pacific. Here, the original camel experience in Los Cabos awaits. The camels are friendly and well-cared-for, and the ride provides a relaxing contrast to the high-energy ATV segment.

Reviewers frequently mention the calm and scenic nature of this part, with one saying, “enjoying the cool ocean breeze” during the ride. The beach setting is stunning—crystal-clear water, soft sand, and a sense of tranquility that’s hard to beat. The camel guides are friendly and attentive, ensuring everyone feels comfortable, even if it’s your first time riding a camel.

The Mexican Buffet Lunch

Next, it’s time to satisfy your appetite. The tour features an unlimited Mexican buffet at an oceanfront restaurant. Expect freshly made tortillas, spicy salsas, and a variety of local flavors. Vegetarian options are available, and reviewers rave about how generous and delicious the food is. This is a true highlight for those who enjoy authentic Mexican cuisine in a relaxed setting, with views of the Pacific providing a perfect backdrop.

Tequila and Damiana Tasting

The afternoon winds down with a spirit tasting session—educational and fun. You’ll learn about tequila and Damiana, a local herb used in Mexican spirits. The guides, such as Miguel and Frank, are praised for their knowledge, making the tasting both informative and lively. Many reviewers mention how good-hearted and professional the guides are, often sharing fun facts and stories that deepen your appreciation for the spirits.

Returning to Cabo

After the tasting, you’ll head back to your hotel or accommodation, often feeling a mix of exhilaration, relaxation, and satisfaction. The transportation in air-conditioned vehicles ensures comfort on the return journey, and the entire experience is designed to leave you with lasting memories.

What We Love About This Tour

One of the most appealing aspects is the diverse itinerary—you get adventure, leisure, and cultural flavor all in one day. The professional guides, who are attentive and engaging, elevate the experience, making even the most novice adventurers feel confident and safe. The stunning scenery—from desert canyons to secluded beaches—offers countless photo opportunities and genuine moments of awe.

Plus, the food and spirits are more than just filler; they’re thoughtfully included in the experience, showcasing authentic Mexican cuisine and local spirits. This isn’t just a quick tour; it’s a well-rounded day of fun, learning, and relaxation.

A Few Considerations

While the tour offers solid value, it does involve quite a bit of waiting—over six hours from start to finish—so patience is key if you’re looking for quick highlights. The actual activity time (Utv ride, camel ride, and tasting) might sum to less than an hour each, with the rest spent in transit or waiting. If you’re especially eager for more active time, you might find this a long day for the activities involved.

Also, physical fitness is a consideration. The tour recommends a moderate fitness level, and expectant mothers are advised against participation. The maximum weight limit for the UTV is 265 pounds, so keep that in mind.

Who Is This Tour Best For?

This adventure suits travelers who enjoy variety—those who want a mix of off-road thrills, scenic relaxation, and cultural tasting—and are comfortable with a full day on the go. Families with children aged 8 and above will appreciate the family-friendly format, while anyone interested in authentic local experiences and friendly guides will find this especially rewarding. If you’re after stunning scenery and engaging guides—like Miguel, Alex, or Frank—you’ll be in good hands.

The Sum Up

This Combo Off Road 4×4 UTV Camel Ride Lunch and Tequila Tasting offers a well-balanced taste of Baja’s rugged terrain, scenic beaches, and lively culture. For adventure lovers who appreciate expert guides and authentic experiences, this tour provides a memorable day that blends adrenaline with relaxation and flavor.
