Our trips are designed for a wide range of fitness levels. No previous camping or adventure experience is required.Activities like hiking, kayaking, and snorkeling are active but approachable.

If you’re not used to regular exercise, we recommend doing a little light training (walking, swimming, or hiking) before your trip to feel more comfortable.

Your safety is our priority. All guides are certified Wilderness First Responders (WFR) and carry a comprehensive first aid kit recommended by Wilderness Medical Associates or SOLO. Guides and crew also carry cell phones and marine radios for communication.

We’ll provide you with a contact number for our La Paz office before your trip. In case of an emergency, your family or friends can call our office, and we’ll relay the message to your guide. Please note that cell service is unreliable or unavailable in many of the remote areas we explore.

• No problem! Many of our guests join solo.
• Our prices are based on double occupancy, so a single supplement fee may apply (varies by trip).
• If you’d like, we can often match you with another solo traveler of the same gender to help you avoid the supplement. Just let us know when you book.

Yes—we do our best to accommodate dietary needs (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, allergies, etc.), depending on what’s available locally. Please share your dietary needs with us before your trip so we can plan ahead.
