Join us as we explore the beauty of the sun-kissed Baja California peninsula, accompanied by the comfort and charm of our beloved camper vans.

They are a perfect addition to a 6-night self-guided trip or combined with another Baja experience—imagine spending four nights in Todos Santos, Cabo, or La Paz, along with one of these two-night trips. Check out our many Baja resources, including Best Hotels in Baja and Everything You Need to Know Before You Go.

You'll spend two nights at your destination, indulging in exciting activities, unforgettable experiences, and delectable food prepared exclusively for your group. The Peace Vans team and our partners, Jordan and Carmen from The Bougie Dirtbag, will ensure you're well cared for. Having traveled with Jordan and Carmen numerous times, we can confidently say that they will create an unparalleled and lasting memory of Baja for you.

Whale Watching

Experience the breathtaking sight of majestic whales in their natural habitat—journey along scenic coastal roads in our meticulously maintained vans, leading you to a prime whale sighting spot, Magdalena Bay. Magdalena Bay is one of the few breeding locations for grey whales—every year, they journey from the north and come to this bay to have their babies. The bay provides plenty of protection from the elements and few predators to worry about. Over time, the whales have become very comfortable with the pangas that frequent the area. Our expert guides will share their knowledge of local marine life, ensuring an unforgettable and educational adventure. Let Peace Vans handle the logistics while you relax and witness these gentle giants in their captivating habitat.

Indulge in a truly exquisite culinary experience with Jordan and Carmen, showcasing their deep understanding of the local seafood and scene. From chef-prepared hand-smoked marlin to grilled oysters with miso butter, savor the diverse flavors of Baja's treasures. Unwind during group happy hours at sunset, where local wines, artisanal cocktails, and craft beers will be served.
