BowTieBrigade Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 Has anyone done one of the RC excursions in Ensenada they really enjoyed or really didn’t? IRMO12HD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karla Jensen Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 We have not done those thru Royal, but years ago we did horseback riding. We were there last weekend and we just got off the ship and walked around. We went to the "Giant" flag and they had a water fountain show that was short, but very nice. From there we walked into town and took a horse drawn carriage ride. It was short but they stayed on a busy road so it was hard to hear the driver especially thru his mask. We then walked to the Huge Catholic church. We arrived just as services were letting out. It was beautiful. We walked back towards the tourist district and went to the Taqueria. Yes from Church to Tequila! We went in and those in our group that drink paid 10 USD for a tour and Tequila tasting. Those that didn't drink were able to hear how Tequila is made and walk thru the exhibits. It was very interesting. We had been to Ensenada many times years ago when RCCL cruised there. It is sooooo much better now. There are still those trying to sell things, but the number is down and we saw NO beggars. Hope this helps!

patty22407 Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 I'm booked on Navigator in early August and am struggling with wanting to go to Pai Pai Ecopark (???). I found it online (no RCI excursion there) but the reviews are all over the place. Has anyone been and if so, how was it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAYNO Posted May 6, 2022 Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 I am always interested in hearing folks' experiences in Ensenada and elsewhere on the Mexican Riviera. We just don't hear of many folks actually cruising there. And I want to. Schedules, dates, and packages just never align. So please, share!

BeachGal Posted May 6, 2022 Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 I'm doing a wine tour when I'm there in June - On my last cruise I didn't get off the ship in Ensenada because there just wasn't much that interested me. Many more interesting excursions on this June cruise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrHoffard Posted May 6, 2022 Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 We are going on our 1st cruise in October 2022 as a late honeymoon and my fiance picked the Vineyard Falconry Harris Hawk excursion. We don't drink but thought the tour and seeing the falconry would be really neat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babsy47 Posted June 3, 2022 Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 We have done kayaks at La Bufadora on one trip and ATV zip line tour on another. The kayak trip was through RC and was fine. The ATVs were with ATV Ensenada, and we had a great time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRMO12HD Posted June 3, 2022 Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 I visited Ensenada twice on a B2B in January 2022. The first time, I walked to the Bar Andaluz/ Centro Cultural Riviera (a former grand hotel) -- it was just under a mile to walk there, but pleasant enough. The second time, I took the RCL Wine Excursion so I could see the countryside -- which I did! We went to two vineyards, one of which was obviously set up for tourists (but nice, with a great store!), and one which was newer, and didn't have quite as extensive amenities, but their wine was pretty good. I would recommend it as a way to see the countryside -- there were some great views of Ensenada's bay coming back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going solo, and would prefer to stay that way on the kayak. Was it enjoyable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drsadowski20 Posted February 5, 2023 Report Share Posted February 5, 2023 We used Jorge Luis Perez for a tour of Valle De Guadalupe while in Ensenada. I had contacted him a month or so via email prior to arrival and he was very responsive with emails back and forth a few times weekly. He gave us great recommendations on locations to visit and even adjusted to our specific desires (2 wineries, 1 brewery, and a food cart). He was quite affordable and even gave us a small tour of Ensenada prior to making our way to the wine region. His vehicle was very clean and offered us beer, water, and snacks during our ride. The highlight of the trip was ending at a VERY local seafood cart. We even had him order for us since we only speak English. Jorge is truly a hidden gem in the area. His email is [email protected].
