La Bufadora & City Tour

No Ensenada trip is complete without a visit to La Bufadora, the area's famous blowhole. During this Ensenada tour, you'll be face-to-face with this natural wonder that sprays water more than 100 feet into the air. Don't miss this unique Ensenada experience!

You'll be greeted by your guide at the pier and transported to La Bufadora, which is located roughly 20 miles from Ensenada. Then get ready to see one of the world's largest blow holes up close. The noise and sight of this marine geyser is unlike anything you've ever experienced. Every minute, the blowhole shoots out water and makes thunderous sounds. Have your camera handy!

After your 90-minute stop at La Bufadora and its surrounding flea market, you can either continue shopping in Ensenada's downtown area or head back to the ship with the tour. If you decide to stay downtown, you will have to find your way back to the pier; taxis are readily available in the area.

During this Ensenada experience, there will be times when you will be walking on uneven surfaces or steep landscapes. As a result, make sure you wear appropriate attire. Reserve your spot now for the ultimate Ensenada sightseeing adventure.

We had an amazing time with our guide. Very professional. Full of energy and provided tips of where to shop. I will definitely use Shore again.

Small group, friendly hosts!

January 28, 2023

We really enjoyed our outing with Ester and our bus driver (whose name I forgot). It was nice to have less than 10 people in our group. The shuttle van was comfortable. Ester narrated our 45-minute van trip to La Bufadora, telling us about the history and commerce of the Ensenada coastal region. At La Bufadora, she gave us info about navigating the marketplace. At the city, she gave clear parameters about which streets were safe to explore. She was the perfect hostess. We had been worried about walking off the cruise ship to find the group just outside the harbor (the Disney-sponsored large groups had buses waiting at the ship), but the walk was probably less than 5 minutes, and Ester was waiting for us just outside the harbor gates. We felt safe the whole time. We would definitely book with Shore Excursions Group again over a Disney cruise-sponsored tour, both for the price (less than half of the Disney price) and for the much-smaller group experience.

Excellent Tour, La Bufadora is Great!

My toddler and I really enjoyed the excursion to La Bufadora. Esther and Ramon were patient with us as we were a bit late trying to disembark from the ship (it was our first cruise). They took us on a circuitous route to the blowhole, which was nice. We gave them a tip at the end. Would definitely do it again.

La Bufadora and city tour

May 18, 2022

I really enjoyed the tour and the time spent at La Bufadora. It was so nice being in a van with only 4 passengers and everyone had time to talk and ask questions of our tour guide. She was waiting for us as we got off the ship and she remained available to us if we had any questions at La Bufadora. I would definitely recommend this excursion.

The tour was worth it. It was awesome to see the geyser! We tried the food from the vendors in Ensenada, and they tasted good! The bus was clean and comfortable. Will do this again!

La Bufadora Tour Review

April 07, 2022

My family and I took this tour excursion when our cruise ship docked in Ensenada. It was a great family tour where we were not rushed, the tour guides were friendly and provided great recommendations. This tour gave us an opportunity to briefly see the city, do some local shopping, try local restaurants and see some beautiful views covering several hours. This was fun and a great value!
