On our drive from Los Cabos to Todos Santos, we stopped along the highway at one of the few swimmable beaches on the Pacific side of Southern Baja, Playa Los Cerritos. We found a quaint hotel and restaurant property catering to surfers and families of surfers, to swim and enjoy a Baja lunch on the beach. Beach time! As soon as I had my suit on I was running over the hot sand to the water. The knowledge that the water is in the high 60s to low 70s did not deter me. I may be from the landlocked state of Montana and the whitest white girl ever, but when I see ocean, I want to be in it! It was a brisk first plunge, but so worth it for the salty taste of the ocean on my lips and the waves pulsing around me. Jackie Lope (the jackalope) catching some rays Sufficiently chilled and my ocean fix sated for now, I sat down to an amazing family style lunch of ceviche, fish tacos with homemade salsa, and a beer. With the hot beach, cool blue ocean, amazing food and good conversation it dawned on me, I'm in a Corona commercial*. I must have thought out loud because my fellow Mexican traveler laughed and said, "Because it is real. Those places exist in Mexico!" It was too true. I could have stayed there in that moment and been happy with my vacation, but there was just too much more of Mexico to explore! *Yes, I am aware that I am drinking Pacifico, I find that it is far superior to Corona, they just don't have dreamy commercials.

Excellent travel advice and service
This is my second experience working with Adventure Life. I’m sold. Jess Heuermann is an experienced traveler and provides a lot of useful information when planning a trip. These are the questions I like to ask at the outset - What’s it like to go here, there, what would you suggest, what do people report, can we add any additional side trips? Jess took the time to answer my questions and seek additional information to share with me. Petchie Colina is outstanding in helping with travel logistics and final preparations. Adventure Life has excellent guides and offers private guides and small group adventures. We enjoyed the opportunity to talk with the guides and drivers to learn more about their countries, cultures and histories. A highlight was having the guides pick local restaurants where we could share meals together. Highly recommend.

Our six-day tour in Iceland went smoothly with one exception. We had asked for two rooms each night. Somehow we were booked with one room with three beds. It could not be fixed at the first hotel in Reykjavik because the hotel was fully booked. Once informed of the problem, however, Adventure Life rebooked for two rooms for the remainder of the trip. As an 85-year-old traveler, I appreciated that one could participate at different physical levels at many of the stops. Iceland is a great place to visit but on the expensive side.

Jess was very easy going and answered all our questions. It’s not easy dealing with 6 people at once but she did an outstanding job!

Kassandra and the Adventure Life team have been incredible! Kassandra was very knowledgeable and attentive to our asks while making sure we kept within our budget. This was our first experience with a travel agent and we were blown away by the booking/initial exploration service. We will use Adventure Life again.
