The park and guides can accommodate all riding abilities. If you're a good driver, they will let you fly thru the dunes. Ask for Yohari, he had us laughing the whole time. The camels are all rescues and well cared for.

Featured review

This experience was by far one of the best to do while in Los Cabos. From our pre arrival to even post the event. The organizers stayed in contact and ensured that we knew all of the directions before arriving to the venue. Once we arrived check in was easy, we opted for a private experience and had lots of fun. The camel ride was done first and we ended with driving the ATV's. So relaxing and such a gret view while on the beach for both experiences. Our tour guide was the best, he was cool and down to earth, explained everything and could answer any of our questions about Mexico. I highly recommend doing this experience and would do it again. Riveting, joyous, calming, enjoyable and equipment was safe and there was no fear to experience. One thing I appreciated was that they did not try to push you to purchase their videos and photos. With the private tour we were able to record/take our own photos. We ended the experience with a tequila tasting. I enjoyed the tasting and bought two bottles!

Hidden fees

Kendra_H, Mar 2026

Fun excursion but they don’t tell you about the insurance you have to have. They only tell you about a $25 park fee but once you arrive they require a $750 hold on your card for insurance on the UTV. Absolutely ridiculous. At least let that be known before people arrive.

UTV and camel experience

Lili_T, Mar 2026

It was a fun experience. Our guide was super nice. The 4 wheeling was fun. The camel ride was walking on the beach being led by a guide. I felt a little bad for the guide. Also they didn’t allow you to take pictures unless you got a private tour. That was the reason for the 4 instead of 5 star review.

Late and Money not publicized

Ethan_L, Mar 2026

Wait time was over 3 hours eventhough our reservation was at 4. We ended up getting to the UTV at 7 and could not see anything. They also don’t tell u u had to pay 700 usd deposit first in order to enjoy the activities. The 700 USD was not on the contract it was just an amount the front desk told me.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you for sharing your experience. We sincerely apologize for the delay you encountered and understand how frustrating this can be, especially when it affects your tour experience. We’d also like to mention that our pricing information is available on our official platforms; however, we understand how not being aware of these charges in advance can cause frustration. We would appreciate learning more about the deposit you were asked to pay. Please contact us at community@cactustours.com with your reservation details so we can review your case further. Thank you for your feedback — it truly helps us improve.

Amazing experience, but....

Karim_Y, Mar 2026

Great experience overall. Facility is great, pick up and drop off services are amazing, and 10 ot of 10 on communication ahead of the excursions. My only negative comment is that they are not up front about charges, when you get there they'll try to upset you on a private tour or having to wait. They also charge a 25$ per person park fee that is a hidden fee. Spent over $400 online and anouther $300 in hidden and upsell less fees. Also, we were told we would do 1:45 min on the ATV ended up being 1:15. Great experience nonetheless, I recommend the management team to review transparency. I would still come here again especially that I know what to budget.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the experience, our facilities, transportation, and communication. We truly value your comments regarding pricing and timing, as they help us continue improving.

Latham_G, Mar 2026

usually don’t write reviews, but I thought families should know what to be prepared for. The overall experience was good, but there were several additional costs that we were not expecting. After paying over $400 for the excursion, we were charged another $100 entrance fee and about $90 for insurance once we arrived. Another thing to be aware of is that you have to lock up your cameras and phones, so you can’t take your own pictures during the experience. Because of that, they offer their own photo package at the end, which costs about $120 if you want pictures of the experience. The activity itself was enjoyable, but it would have been helpful to know about these extra fees and restrictions ahead of time so families can plan accordingly. Latham G.

The experience was great, expect to get dusty for sure from the UTV riding. Our tour guide Luis was great and we really enjoyed him.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Geyang_Y, Jan 2026

Activities are fun and guide is nice, but lots of waiting time and upgrade options. Due to long waiting time the whole activity duration is near 5 hours

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us We’re really happy to hear you enjoyed the activities and that our guide made a positive impression. We appreciate your feedback about the waiting time. Some pauses can happen as part of our safety process and overall guest coordination, and we also offer optional upgrades for those who’d like to personalize their experience. Thank you for choosing us to be part of your adventure. Your feedback helps us continue improving the experience we offer.

Ginny_G, Dec 2025

Overall, we had a great experience. The only minor downside was that check-in took a bit longer than expected — around 20 to 30 minutes — as we thought we could start the activities right away. Everything else was excellent, especially the camel ride. The camels looked very well cared for, healthy, and calm, which we really appreciated. One small suggestion would be to offer free Wi-Fi for guests, which would make the experience even more convenient.

Expensive but perfect!!

Seetha_V, Dec 2025

Took private package. Very experienced instructors. The only con is it’s expensive and the photo package can be included on the private package since we are already paying a lot.

Daisy_H, Nov 2025

experience was 10/10! Truly amazing experience, we booked the 4pm tour and the sunset was beautiful! Thankful for the bus ride transportation and hospitality.

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Hi Daisy, we’re really glad to know your experience was amazing in every way, especially with that beautiful sunset. You probably caught one of the best sunsets in Baja California Sur. Hope to see you back soon to enjoy another one just like it🌵🏜

T e r r i b l e experience

Mikesha_S, Sep 2025

Hidden fees over 100 in addition to what you paid , shortened experience , rude front desk staff , can’t take your phone. , photographer pics trash pics over 100 do NOT waste your money . Camel ride was 30 min . They were late and tried to push back my reservation an hour . Terrible . Over 300$ for trash no memories bc you couldn’t take your phone

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Hello, I hope you are doing very well. You mention very important points, and I’m happy to explain them in detail: The park entrance fee is 25 USD, the vehicle insurance is optional, and the photography service is also completely optional. We also offer the option of making your tour private, where you can take your own photos and make as many stops as you like, since the route is not shared with other visitors. We also offer a buffet service depending on the package you purchased. On the other hand, you mentioned some very important points about your experience, and we would like to investigate them thoroughly. You noted a delay in the pick-up, and we want to understand exactly what happened in order to correct it. If it’s okay with you, could you please send us your full name and reservation number to this email: community@cactustours.com? Thanks to comments like yours, we can improve different areas and identify opportunities for improvement. Lastly, regarding the camel ride duration, we want to share that it is designed to last approximately 20 minutes as part of a complete experience within the park of around 1 hour in combo. This includes the camel ride, the ecological walk, interaction with animals, time for photographs, and, if purchased, access to the buffet. The duration of the camel ride is determined with the well-being and care of our camels in mind, which is a priority for us. We truly appreciate you sharing your experience with us; we are here to help and continue improving.

Outstanding experience

Mary_W, Sep 2025

The tour itself was...

Stacy_W, Aug 2025

The tour itself was great—the location is beautiful, clean, and well organized, and our guide was wonderful. What I didn’t enjoy were the surprise costs and high-pressure upsells. Beyond the $25 park fee, we were strongly pressured into optional “insurance” ($10 medical, $45 vehicle). You also can’t bring your own phone or camera unless you pay $150 for a private tour, while their photo/video packages start at $149 with no option to just buy one or two shots. What began as a $200 tour for two quickly turned into over $500 with extras and tips. Fun experience, but go in prepared for the hidden costs.

Get the camel tour!!

Sandra_P, Aug 2025

The camel/side by side tour was such an unforgettable adventure! Riding through the trails felt like stepping into another world, and the views were incredible the whole way. We decided to upgrade to a private tour, and it was 100% worth it, having the guide just for us made the experience feel even more special. Between the camels, the rugged terrain, and the thrill of the side by side ride, it was the perfect mix of excitement and fun. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a little adventure!

Great time was had

Kia_W, Aug 2025

This is a great tour. We opted to do the private tour and so glad we did. Our tour guide Ivan was great explaining everything we were seeing and taking us on the trails.

5 stars!!

Jerrika_S, Aug 2025

David was our tour guide and he was phenomenal! Very knowledgeable and seemed to love what he was doing! Highly recommend.

Cactus tours fun!

Iyanna_G, Jul 2025

Andres was very informative when explaining how to operate the ATV and welcoming. The photographer was phenomenal and worked really hard to get photos for us. ( Definitely could see the effort he was putting in to capture these special moments. ) super fun excursion. You are getting a lot of “bang for you buck”! Or “moneys worth” as some say lol.

Louisiana girls approve this one

Danielle_J, Jul 2025

Excellent experience. Eddie was an amazing host. He made us feel welcomed and kept us laughing. Feeding the camels was a great surprise. I also recommend having your pictures professionally down.

Juan was beyond awesome!...

Ciara_F, Jul 2025

Juan was beyond awesome! Took a private tour with him, and I didn’t regret it!! Very informative and fun!

Cactus Tours

Habiba_M, Jun 2025

0/10 I would not recommend unless you don’t mind paying more than what you expected. Although our tour guy was very friendly & entertaining we paid $165 just to bring our cellphones on top of what we paid for the excursion itself ($200). What’s the point in a tour if I’m not allowed to take any videos?! Upon arriving at cactus tours we were told to leave our phones in the lockers or book a private tour for $150 more to be able to bring our phones. Then you also have to pay $750 insurance deposit or pay $45 non refundable fee for insurance. Our tour was suppose to be from 1:00-3:00pm but the transport came late around 5:00 and didn’t take us to our resort until 6:00 making us miss our boat tour that was scheduled for 6:00 and we had to pay an extra $40 to reschedule the bus tour. Absolutely horrible experience, NEVER AGAIN!!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify a few important points. At Cactus Tours, safety is our top priority. Due to the nature of our outdoor activities and the level of risk involved, we have a strict no-phone policy during the excursions unless guests book a private tour — this is to avoid distractions and accidents during high-adrenaline rides. We understand that this can be frustrating, especially for those wanting to capture personal memories, which is why we always strive to communicate this clearly in advance through our partners and at check-in. The optional insurance or refundable deposit is offered to give guests peace of mind when handling off-road vehicles, and is standard in the adventure tourism industry. We deeply regret the delay in transportation and how it affected your plans. This is not the level of service we aim to deliver, and your feedback will be shared with our operations team to ensure better coordination and guest care moving forward. If you’d like to speak with our team or provide more details, please reach out to us at onlinereservations@cactusatvtours.com. We’d appreciate the chance to make things right.

Awful experience

Austin_W, Oct 2024

The whole trip was miss advertised. It was only about an hour long of riding and lunch was not provided. We had to go over an hour early to get a shuttle there and wait an hour after to get another shuttle back and the ride back that should have taken 30 minutes max took over an hour making other stops nowhere close to our resort. Would not recommend at all. They charge an additional amount of 75$ for insurance on the vehicle as well or make you put $1000 deposit which you will not get back.

Mediocre when compared to first experience

Barbara_o, Sep 2024

This is our second time to do this particular excursion and it was not nearly as good as the first. We spent very little time next to the beach, the guide did not provide any history , we did not have the water breaks nor did we have the quesadillas that was listed as “ included” . We had a new couple with us and we had really hyped up this excursion to them and unfortunately it was only mediocre and we won’t be doing it again. First time was 5 start for sure.

So fun!

Judd_A, Apr 2024

By far the best UTV tour I’ve ever been on! Riding a mix of twisty bumpy trails and beach on legit X3 turbo UTV’s. Sure they were heavily used machines, but other than that, it was mint. Great guide too!

Super fun adventure! You won’t be disappointed!

Dirk_G, Apr 2024

We opted for the private RC tour and it was worth every penny. Our guide Axel was fantastic. No issues and not stop fun and excitement. I have two boys 16 & 17 who have their drivers licenses and were able to drive. They absolutely loved it!
