About this tour
When Noah from our team ran this six-hour tour through Todos Santos, we got a proper taste of what makes this old coastal town tick. The day strings together a guided walk through the town's bohemian streets, a private tequila and mezcal tasting, lunch at a local spot, craft ice cream, and a finish at a hidden beach tucked behind palms. It's the kind of itinerary that bounces between cultural history and beach time, hitting the art galleries and hand-made shops in between. The mix of guided moments and free roaming works well—enough structure to learn the story, enough breathing room to actually explore.
Highlights

- Craft ice cream stop that tastes as good as it sounds
- Optional cliff-top hike for Pacific views if you've got the legs for it
- Private transport means no crowded minibus stress
What to expect
The day opens with a guided wander through Todos Santos proper. Your guide will point out the historical bones of the town and the art scene that's moved in, but you're not glued to their hip—there's genuine free time to duck into galleries, find trinkets, and take photos without feeling rushed. The pace is relaxed in the morning, more brisk once you're back on the road.
After the town leg, you'll hit the tequila and mezcal tasting in a private setting (no kitschy tourist theatre here), then head to a local restaurant for lunch. Heads up: your meal isn't covered, so budget for that separately. Next is craft ice cream, then the real standout—the secret beach. It's a proper detour, quieter than the main strips, and there's time to actually swim and sit. If you fancy it, the optional hike to the cliffs is steep-ish but rewards you with outstanding ocean views. The whole day feels balanced between learning and living.
Good to know
This tour works brilliantly for people who want cultural context without museum fatigue. The tequila tasting is genuinely educational and tastes good. The secret beach is a proper find—not overrun. Noah's team handles transport, so you're not navigating yourself. It's intimate, not a cattle-herd experience.
Lunch costs come out of pocket, which catches some travellers off guard. The optional cliff hike is only for people with decent fitness and a stable spine—it's not a casual stroll. Todos Santos in peak season can still feel busy despite the "magic town" branding. Walking in town is moderate; bring comfortable shoes. Not suitable if you're pregnant, have spinal issues, or cardiovascular concerns. Peak times (winter, weekends) will have more people in the galleries and on the beach.
Water bottle (one's provided but you'll want extras), sunscreen, swimmers and towel, comfortable walking shoes, cash for lunch and any gallery finds. Group size is private or small, peak time is June–August and December–January.
