Protected as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, these mountains capture seasonal rainfall that feeds freshwater springs, streams, and natural pools throughout the Santiago region. The oasis at Sol de Mayo exists because water flowing from the mountains sustains a unique ecosystem within an otherwise arid desert landscape. Over millions of years, flowing water carved the canyon’s rock formations, creating the pools, waterfalls, and natural pathways visitors explore today. What makes this private experience unique is the opportunity to enjoy these landscapes at a comfortable pace. Whether swimming beneath the waterfall, exploring the canyon, learning about local history, or simply taking in the scenery, your guide can adapt the experience to your group, offering a deeper connection to the natural beauty that exists beyond the coastline of Los Cabos. ## Before you book - Hotel pickup: no car needed - Entry ticket included: skip the ticket desk - Min. 3 to book: not for solo travellers - Food included: see what is included - Fitness notes apply: see additional information - Age rule: Minimum age is 6 years old **Pickup:** Hotel pickup included ## Key facts - Price: from €200 per person - Duration: 6h - Rating: 4.96/5 from 72 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Operator: High Tide Los Cabos - Minimum booking: 3 travellers at this price - Group: Private tour, your party only - Guide languages: English, Spanish - Tickets: Admission included - Booking: Instant confirmation, mobile ticket - Price checked on Viator: 2026-10-08 ## Reviews 4.96 from 72 ratings on Guidekin, Viator & Tripadvisor. 99% of ratings with a star breakdown are 4 or 5 stars: 71 of 72. - 5 stars: 70 (97%) - 4 stars: 1 (1%) - 3 stars: 1 (1%) - 2 stars: 0 (0%) - 1 star: 0 (0%) ## What's included - Guided hike and swimming experience at Fox Canyon / Sol de Mayo waterfall - Entrance fee to Fox Canyon / Sol de Mayo natural area - Lunch at a local Baja-style restaurant including tacos, tortilla chips, salsas and vegetarian option - Certified bilingual hiking guide - Complimentary round-trip transportation from selected areas in an air-conditioned vehicle ## Not included - Alcoholic beverages - Gratuities - Personal expenses - Towels ## Schedule - Runs: daily - Schedule last checked: 2026-10-08 - These are published departures, not a live seat count; availability is confirmed at checkout. ## Cancellation For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time. ## Meeting point Guests arriving with their own vehicle usually meet at Plaza Gali OXXO in Cabo San Lucas or Mega in San José del Cabo depending on their hotel location.
