If you’re after a mix of adventure, scenic views, and a chance to try something a little different during your trip to Cabo, this Razor Beach and Desert Tour might catch your eye. While we haven’t personally gone on this exact trip, reviews and descriptions paint a picture of a fun, adrenaline-filled experience that’s perfect for those who enjoy off-road driving and stunning natural landscapes.
One of the things we love about this tour is the ease of transportation—organized, air-conditioned pickups mean you don’t need to worry about how to get to Migriño Beach, especially if you’re unfamiliar with the area.

This experience is well-suited for those who want a taste of adventure, enjoy being in the driver’s seat, and are comfortable with a group setting.

Starting Point: Hotel Pickup and Transport
The tour kicks off with hotel pickup from Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo, which is a real plus. No fuss about organizing your own transport—everything is arranged via air-conditioned minivans. This convenience means you can relax and prepare for the fun ahead, knowing you’re being taken directly to the off-road park.
The pickup time is generally synchronized with the tour schedule, and most travelers find it straightforward. The guides are bilingual and friendly, which comforts those who may be new to off-road adventures or unfamiliar with the area.
The Drive to Playa Migrino
Once at the meeting point, you’ll gear up with helmets and get a quick safety briefing. The core of this trip is a two-hour 4WD ride in the Razor, which is a side-by-side off-road vehicle. These vehicles are designed for stability and fun, capable of tackling Baja’s sandy dunes and rocky paths.
The ride doesn’t just focus on the thrill—your guides also point out interesting sights and landscapes along the way. The views of the ocean and desert from the vehicle are impressive, offering a different perspective of Baja’s rugged terrain.
The Off-Road Adventure: Desert and Beach Highlights
What really sets this tour apart is the chance to drive across both desert and beach landscapes. You’ll navigate through sandy dunes and rocky outcroppings before reaching Migriño Beach, an often less crowded stretch of sand with a relaxed vibe.
Reviewers mention that the views are stunning and the experience is super fun, especially if you enjoy going fast and feeling the wind. One guest commented, “If you like to go fast and have a great time, book with Amigos,” highlighting how this tour caters to thrill-seekers.
Photo Stops and Hidden Gems
The guide will pause at scenic spots where you can snap photos and take in vistas you might not stumble upon on your own. Romina_N shared that the trip was her “best experience by far,” and appreciated the opportunity to get dirty and enjoy the natural beauty.
A tip from some reviews: bring your own mask if you want to avoid extra costs or buy one from the tour, starting at $5. Also, some travelers noted they had to leave belongings in lockers or pay extra to keep their phones private—so be prepared if capturing photos is a priority.
Returning and Drop-Off
After the adventure, the group is transported back to your hotel, completing approximately three hours of fun. The tour’s length makes it a perfect half-day activity—enough time to get your adrenaline fix and still enjoy other parts of your Cabo trip.
What the Reviews Say

Looking at feedback from previous travelers, the guides are consistently praised for being friendly and helpful. Sunnysuravarapu, who called the staff “excellent,” noted that the tour was highly recommended, especially for families with children over four.
Another reviewer, mendeeez, enjoyed the views but pointed out some costs associated with photography, which is worth considering if capturing memories is a priority. One guest, J_B, summed it up with: “Don Julio and Don Alejandro were awesome. If you like to go fast and have a great time, book with Amigos.”
On the flip side, a review from Chelsie_G expressed frustration due to logistical issues like a driver being sent to the wrong location. It’s a reminder that, like any tour, hiccups can happen, but these aren’t necessarily reflective of the overall experience.
Safety and Comfort
Most reviews highlight that the equipment is provided and that the guides are attentive to safety, making it suitable for those who are comfortable with off-road vehicles. While the tour isn’t explicitly described as family-friendly, the mention of children over four suggests it’s accessible to younger travelers, provided they’re comfortable in a helmet and enjoy outdoor activities.
Value for Price
At $280 per group (up to 2 people), the cost might seem high, but consider what’s included: transport, helmets, water, a bilingual guide, and the experience of driving across varied terrain. If you’re into off-road adventures and want a guided, stress-free way to explore Baja’s desert and beaches, many feel it offers good value.
Who Is This Tour Best For?
This trip appeals most to adventure lovers and photo enthusiasts who want more than just a beach day. It’s perfect if you’re keen on off-road driving, interesting landscapes, and guided experiences.
While families with kids over four are welcomed, it might not be ideal for very young children or those who prefer a more relaxed, sunbathing day at the beach. If you enjoy a fast-paced, scenic ride with knowledgeable guides, this tour will likely satisfy your craving for excitement.
Final Thoughts
The Razor Beach and Desert Tour from Cabo San Lucas offers a compelling mix of thrilling off-road driving, scenic views, and hassle-free logistics. It’s a great way to see Baja’s diverse landscapes without the hassle of planning your own adventure. The guides are consistently praised, and the opportunity to explore both desert dunes and oceanfront beaches makes this a memorable trip for most.
While the price is on the higher side, it includes a lot of what makes a memorable outdoor adventure—guided safety, equipment, and transportation. Just be prepared for some costs if you want to keep your photos private or avoid extra charges.
