Absolutely worth the time and cost

Really good history of some of the area. Kris was very good. He’ll encourage you to spread the local history as well as be smart about water conservation as a tourist.

Outside the box

The tour was very informative, I learned a lot about Cabo San Jose. Kristian has a unique outlook and experience of San Jose, which gives you a non traditional, historical outlook . 10 out of 10 thank you so much for an amazing time.

Incredible tour, such valuable information; everything Kris knows is amazing, it shows that it is something he enjoys, and the way he conveys it makes people pay a lot of attention. Thanks to this tour, I will be able to inform and put into practice everything I learned with visitors in my current job 😃😃

True history

If you really want to know the history of the place you are visiting, Kristian and his team are the best option. He takes you through the history of the area in such a beautiful way that it leaves you intrigued and wanting to learn more and share what you learned! I will definitely return with my family to continue discovering this wonderful place.

Highly recommended for everyone, both residents and visitors!

We organized a city tour as a company activity, and all of my coworkers attended. I believe it is extremely important for the people who live and work in Los Cabos to know as much as possible about the history of this place; only then can one make consistent and coherent decisions regarding these lands. Kris knows a great deal about flora, fauna, traditions, customs, and more! Super interesting and necessary!
