City Tour Todos Santos and Tequila Tasting

The best feature here is having a private vehicle and a flexible guide for the long, scenic run from Cabo San Lucas to Todos Santos. You can stop for breakfast near Playa Cerritos, browse Tequila Town, take photos by Hotel California, and adjust the day instead of following a crowded bus schedule.

I like the small-group format, which keeps the $268.07 price sensible for four people. I also like the freedom to linger. Ricardo has allowed couples to customize the day, including a beach lunch at Cerritos and extra time in town.

The main drawback is that lunch and tips cost extra, and the tour is non-refundable unless the operator cancels for bad weather or lack of a minimum group. Pickup may also require meeting outside some resort complexes.

Key points to know before booking

• Private ride for up to four: You share the air-conditioned vehicle only with your own group.
• Cerritos comes early: Plan on roughly an hour from Los Cabos before the beach-area stop.
• Todos Santos gets the most time: The town portion can include Tequila Town, Hotel California, the mission, shops, drinks, and ice cream.
• Your schedule can bend: You may ask to stay longer in Todos Santos, subject to the tour’s time and the driver’s arrangements.
• Breakfast is suggested, not included: Food, lunch, tequila purchases, and tips are separate expenses.
• Ricardo is the named guide: He is described as punctual, patient, personable, and willing to tailor the day.

Why this private Cabo outing makes sense

Todos Santos is far enough from Cabo San Lucas that transportation shapes the whole day. A public bus or large coach can make the trip feel like a transfer between stops. Here, the air-conditioned vehicle and private format give you more control over when you get out, how long you browse, and where you pause for food.

The stated duration is about five hours, with roughly one hour of driving to Cerritos, about three hours around Todos Santos, and another hour reserved for the return portion or additional time. That is enough for a useful introduction, but not enough for every possible stop. You should see this as a sampler of the area, not a slow, full-day road trip.

For a group of four, $268.07 works out to about $67 per person before food and gratuities. For two people, the cost is about $134 per person. The value is strongest when you want privacy and door-to-door transport, rather than the lowest possible fare.

The ride from Los Cabos to Cerritos

Pickup is arranged from your hotel in Los Cabos after the reservation is made. The operator notes that some resorts do not allow the vehicle into their complex, including Pueblo Bonito, Cabo del Sol, Riu Santa Fe, and Riu Palace Baja California. If you are staying at one of these properties, confirm the exact meeting point early.

The first drive takes about an hour. That is a meaningful part of a five-hour tour, so the private vehicle matters. You can use the ride to settle into the day instead of worrying about directions or parking.

Bottled water and air conditioning are included. There is no promise of a narrated drive, so ask Ricardo questions if you want more local context along the way. His approach, based on the available details, is personal and adaptable rather than a tightly scripted coach presentation.

Breakfast near Playa Cerritos

The route includes a stop at a restaurant near Playa Cerritos for breakfast. In one customized outing, the beach stop became a lunch stop instead, so you can ask about the meal timing when you book. Food is not included, and lunch is specifically listed as an extra cost.

This stop gives the trip a useful break before town. You can eat, stretch your legs, and spend a little time near the beach instead of rushing directly from Cabo to shopping streets. Do not assume a particular restaurant, menu, or beach activity is part of the package. The confirmed details only promise a restaurant stop near Playa Cerritos.

Cerritos also appears in the free-time plan. The tour describes about one hour in El Cerritos, with the option to request another hour. That flexibility can help if breakfast runs long or you would rather enjoy the coast than hurry into Todos Santos.

Three hours to explore Todos Santos

The core of the day is Todos Santos, where you have about three hours in the main itinerary. The first suggested stop is Tequila Town. You can walk around, shop, have a margarita at Tequila Sunrise, or arrange tequila tasting as part of your time there.

The wording matters: this is free time, not a guided tasting with a fixed flight clearly included in the price. Any drinks, tastings, food, or purchases should be treated as your responsibility unless Ricardo confirms otherwise. If tequila is your main reason for booking, ask exactly what tasting is planned and whether there is a separate charge.

You can also take photos at Hotel California. The name is a popular photo draw, but the experience is more about the setting and the town walk than a guaranteed hotel tour. The Mission of Todos Santos is another listed stop, giving you a chance to add a cultural and architectural point to the shopping and tasting.

Bazar Besame Mucho is offered as another town option. You might prefer it if you want local-style browsing rather than spending all your time at Tequila Town. An ice cream while walking is also suggested, which says something useful about the pace: this is meant to be easygoing, with room for small stops.

What you can customize

Private touring is most useful here because the day is not locked to one interest. Couples have used the flexibility for a beach meal, shopping, tequila tasting, and extra time in Todos Santos. Another outing included a fish taco stop and a visit to a glass factory back in Cabo, while a blanket factory was considered but not included.

Those examples do not mean every stop is guaranteed. They do show that you can discuss priorities with Ricardo. If you want the mission, tequila, a meal, and shopping, say so before the day begins. If you prefer fewer commercial stops and more time walking, make that clear too.

The guide has also been described as punctual, patient, personable, and informative. Those qualities matter on a private outing, because a flexible plan works only when the driver listens and keeps an eye on the clock.

Returning to Cabo without a hard rush

The final portion allows you to decide if you are ready to return. The itinerary specifically says not to be shy about staying longer, since this is your tour. That does not mean unlimited time, but it does suggest that the scheduled hour can be adjusted when practical.

You should clarify the return time before wandering off. Todos Santos is pleasant for a slow stroll, and it would be easy to lose track of time among the shops, drinks, food, and photo stops. A private ride removes much of the usual transport stress, but it does not remove the need to keep an agreed schedule.

The vehicle returns you toward Los Cabos, and the day ends with drop-off arrangements made for your accommodation or meeting point. Since access rules differ by resort, confirm where the vehicle can legally stop.

Price, group size, and what you really receive

The $268.07 rate covers the private group, up to four people, not four separate tickets. That makes the arithmetic attractive for a family or a group of friends. A party of two pays more per person, but still receives a private vehicle and a flexible day instead of joining a large coach.

Included items are simple:

• Air-conditioned vehicle
• Bottled water
• Private transportation
• English-language service
• Hotel pickup arrangement

Not included are tips, lunch, breakfast, drinks, tequila tastings, ice cream, shopping, and other personal spending. Since the tour includes free time rather than a long list of prepaid admissions, bring a payment method for food and purchases.

I would budget beyond the advertised price for a meal and a few optional stops. The tour is a good value if privacy, convenience, and schedule control matter to you. It is less compelling if you only want a basic transfer to Todos Santos or plan to spend very little once you arrive.

Who should book this tour

This outing suits couples who dislike crowded bus tours, small families, and friends who want to share one vehicle. It also works well for people who want a light introduction to Todos Santos without planning the route themselves.

You should book it if you value:

• A private group rather than a shared coach
• Round-trip transport from Cabo San Lucas
• A mix of beach time, food, tequila, shopping, and photos
• The ability to ask for extra time or a different stop
• An English-language guide and a five-hour commitment

It may not suit you if you want a long, highly structured cultural tour, a guaranteed lunch, or a fully prepaid tasting program. The tour leaves several details open, which is useful for flexible people but less ideal if you want every minute and meal fixed in advance.

The experience is also weather dependent. If poor weather causes cancellation, you are offered another date or a full refund. The same applies if the minimum number of participants is not met. For any other cancellation or change, the amount paid is not refundable, so check your plans carefully before booking.

Practical details that can affect your day

Confirmation arrives at booking, and the experience operates daily from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The listed operating period runs through December 22, 2026. Your exact pickup time and meeting place should be confirmed after the reservation.

Service animals are allowed, and most people can participate. Because this is private, only your own group joins the activity. That gives you privacy, but it does not automatically guarantee special vehicle equipment or a specific accessibility setup, so ask the operator about any mobility needs before paying.

The tour is offered in English. If your group has strong food, drink, shopping, or sightseeing priorities, share them with the guide at the start. A short conversation can make the difference between a rushed checklist and a day that fits your interests.

Should you book the Todos Santos tour?

Book this tour if you want an easy private escape from Cabo with room for beach food, tequila, shopping, and a relaxed walk through Todos Santos. The strongest reasons are the private vehicle, the useful customization, and Ricardo’s reported personal approach.

I would skip it if you need an all-inclusive price or a fixed cultural program with every admission and meal covered. For everyone else, especially a group of four, the cost is reasonable for a private five-hour outing. Go in knowing that breakfast and lunch are extra, some resort pickups need a meeting point, and the best parts of the day come from choosing your priorities in advance.
