We will be returning to Baja to explore this beautiful country and interact with the magnificent California Gray Whales. This is an incredible experience. Imagine being able to touch and pet these giant mammals that swim right up to the boat. We will travel out to the lagoon where the calves are born and observe the mothers and babies from a panga boat, an amazing experience. We will also visit missions and explore beautiful beaches, enjoy four group meals (included) and a guided, escorted trip to San Javier Mission near Loreto. This caravan drives at a leisurely pace and makes frequent rest stops. The group is limited to eight RV’s, so not to overwhelm the local services.
