A guide w/auto?

Question

Will spend 10 days in SJD and am wondering if a guide w/ auto is a lot more expensive than renting a car?

I would probably only want a car or guide for 3 or 4 of the days there-maybe a trip up the west coast, etc.

Hola!  You made a good pick with staying in SJD, but I am wondering why you need a guide w/auto?  Is there a certain thing you want to partake in while in Cabo?  Why exactly do you need to rent a car?  You will find the town of SJD very walkable and easy access.  Beaches, restaurants, shops in SJD are all easy access by taxi/shuttle or even bus.

Is the car and guide for activities?   We have alot of reputable tour companies in the area.  I would personally recommend Baja Wild or Baja Adventures.  to kayak, snorkel, ATV, hike, 4x4, whale watch,etc.  

If you want to drive 'the loop'  it is very easy...you do not need a guide.  "The loop" is the highway that connects La Paz with Cabo and goes all along the coastline of the pennisula.  It is a very scenic trip and very safe.  You can stop in each little town (cabo san lucas, todos santos, la paz, los barrilles, etc) and sightsee.  It is approximately 4 hours round trip but most people make a day of it, or stay over in La Paz.
