Mexico: The Real Baja a la Carte

A journey deep into Baja, Mexico, is an escape into a region of remote, exotic charms—amidst landscapes of stunning beauty and diversity where the Baja desert, Pacific Ocean, and Sierra de la Laguna Mountains meet. Far from Mexico’s more frequented tourist destinations, Baja entices the traveler with its unique history, ranchero culture, and exhilarating canyon and coastal walking terrain. The enchanting town of Todos Santos is the hub of your adventure with its quaint cafés, shops, restaurants, and art galleries. The blend of exercise, relaxation, and culture is intentional during your week in Todos Santos, whether you are being welcomed in homes and authentic kitchens, strolling beaches or mountains, or boating in the Pacific.  Walking à la Carte tours include a world of options—additional cultural and regional opportunities—along with plenty of walking. The choice is always yours.
    From your base in Todos Santos—a special town imbued with a timeless atmosphere that Mexicans, expatriates, and adventure lovers call home—venture to nearby pristine beaches fringed by hills and desert canyons where the walking is ideal, the views often breathtaking. Baja's biodiversity adds a facet of wild excitement to the tour as you observe varied bird and animal species—and even swim among tropical fish and playful sea lions.
    Your accommodations in Baja evoke the simple elegance of this extraordinary region in authentic style.  Mealtimes are as memorable on the trail as off, whether you are enjoying a beach picnic in the shade of palm trees, learning to make tortillas for lunch or signature Mexican specialties for dinner, or sharing tales of the day's discoveries in an open-air restaurant by a tranquil lagoon. Baja is simply a wonder—a gem-like oasis in the desert, a south-of-the border getaway like no other.
