5.00Sergio provided clear instructions on where to meet from our cruise ship. He drove us to La Bufadora while pointing out interesting information about Ensenada and the surrounding area. We walked through the shopping area, where he made recommendations for lunch and vendors, and took a few pictures along the way. Sergio led us to La Bufadora and offered some facts about the site. We didn’t feel rushed at all as he told us to take our time exploring the area, and we later met him back at his car. We thoroughly enjoyed our time! Sergio was a great driver and guide, and we would highly recommend going on this tour.

5.00We had such an amazing experience with our tour guide! Jorge took us to La Bufadora and the historic center where the margarita was invented, and made the entire day unforgettable. He was incredibly kind, relatable, honest, and so knowledgeable—you can really tell he’s passionate about history, people, and travel. He picked us up right on time, provided transportation, water, and snacks, and made everything super easy and comfortable. He even gave us the option to have our own space, but honestly he was so cool and easy to talk to that we wanted him with us the whole time. On top of that, Jorge took beautiful photos of me and my boyfriend, which we really appreciated. He truly went above and beyond to make the experience special. Highly recommend—he made the tour incredible!

5.00Very reliable and Eugenia first showed us the historical building which used to be owned by Al Capone ( the notorious gangster ) and also were Margarita drink was invented. Also a craft market . Then a trip to the Blow Hole in her very nice car. She pointed out information about the country side and scenery. When we got the Blow Hole . She took us through the local market , the stall holders knew her and we were offered many samples . She also kept us right on what the cost of gifts will cost. The Blow Hole was an experience not to be missed. She also kindly took photos for us on our mobile. She left us to browse and sample some Mexican food. After a good hour we returned to her car . She offered to take us back to sample a Margarita were we started off. However we decided to return to the ship in good time . Many thanks Michael and Angela ( Scotland ) 👍

Bufadora with the best guide in Ensenada

5.00We had booked a tour in Ensenada with admittedly low expectations. Luckily for us we decided to book the Bufadora tour and even better we were lucky to have Jorge as a guide. He sent information the day before with clear directions and photos of where to meet. It was a short 10 minute walk from the Princess cruise ship. Jorge was early and met us as promised. He has a nice comfortable SUV and to our delight we were on a private tour with just the 2 of us. Jorge has a great ability to tell stories and is able to be humorous and an all around great guy. He stopped at a couple fo photo opportunities and was always willing to take our pictures. The Bufadora was a sight today! Lots of action. There was a market to shop in on the way. Jorge even recommended a wonderful restaurant that itself became a highlight of the day. Considering that we were thinking of just staying on the ship, Jorge’s tour became the best part of our cruise. Highly recommended! AA++
