Planning a first Baja off-road trip? These guides cover who can go, passport, drive versus ride, Baja versus a U.S. desert school, clothes, cost, and what the peninsula day actually is. Search a ZIP when you are ready to find an operator.
The first-timer product is a guided off-road experience in Baja California. You may drive. You may ride. You are not automatically in the Baja 1000.
U.S. dirt school only? See Off-Road Racing School. Trail day at home? See UTV.
