    Captain Manny V Safely Shows You The Epic Side Of Baja

    I am so happy I went on the Baja Weekender. I expected it to be a lot of surfing and good times, and that's exactly what it was. All five of us, three of whom knew each other before we went, were talking in the car on our way to one of the breaks about how great the trip was, how it was so awesome to not have to figure out any of the logistics and get to completely concentrate on surfing hard, relaxing whenever we weren't in the water, and not worrying about anything. Manny is a great traveler and super easy to talk to and get along with. The entire time he pointed out things that were interesting along the road, we stopped at some delicious restaurants and also roadside stands (that I had always been too timid in my previous travels in the area to stop at). From pitaya sorbet to delicious burritos at the roadside stands, we were always getting to see parts of Baja from an experienced point of view. The photos and drone shots were great, and he gave us helpful insight on what to modify, from stance to paddling to where to look on the wave, etc. I wouldn't hesitate to book again, in fact, I'm already planning my next trip with epic surf tours.

    What a way to spend a weekend! This was my second BajaWeekender surf trip with Manny - and somehow it topped the first time. This weekend was truly a get away for me - leaving it all behind and signing up for the trip solo - Manny provided exactly what I needed! No need to worry about anything - he provides a great agenda that caters to the entire groups' desires all while keeping a smile on everyone's face. He knows where to find the best tacos, the best lobster, the best breakfast burritos...but the best part is the secret surf spot he took us to - just a few friendly locals and SoCal friends alike enjoy the empty lineup! Thank you Manny - I've made some great friends on each of my trips and memories that will last forever! Gracias amigo!

    Incredible weekend surfing great waves with friends. The food was a highlight of the trip and the people were even better! The house sits right on the ocean with stunning views of Baja and the surf conditions below. Manny is not only an amazing leader and surfer but he's an awesome photographer/videographer. I would highly recommend this trip to everyone and I can't wait to do another one!

    Manny was a terrific guide for our group: knowledgeable, capable, and kind. We were sitting at a restaurant by the sea and the breeze was a bit chilly. Manny quietly left the restaurant to go purchase several colorful Mexican blankets at a nearby market, which he gave to the ladies in our group to keep warm. Who does that? Manny. Also, he's just a cool guy to hang out with--he fit right in.

    MANNY IS THE MAN!!!! I've gone on a couple Baja weekenders with him, and he has never disappointed! Great food, great waves, great company! If I had one criticism, it would be that the tacos were too good. I mean, you figure "OMG surfing all day, I'm going to come home soooo skinny!" Then 900 tortillas later, all that fit are sweatpants. Thanks manny. Thanks A LOT.

    Did the Baja weekender with Epic Surf Tours which was full of tasty food and tasty waves. Manny is an expert surf guide. He knows Baja well and was able to find us fun, uncrowded breaks despite finicky weather, different abilities of the group, and it being a holiday weekend. Having Manny as your guide means you’re spending more time actually surfing and less time figuring out which spot to choose, where to paddle out, and where to sit. At the end of the day, reviewing Mannys drone footage on day 1 also helped me catch 10x more waves by day 3. When we weren’t surfing, we were exploring the area and eating amazing food. Manny is a gem and every local we ran into seemed to adore him - probably because he’s so respectful and generous. Epic surf tours is an ethical and authentic surf vacation, where you can show up with your boards and let an expert plan the rest.

    I've been fortunate enough to go on numerous wave riding missions with Manny Vargas. My 1st trip dating back to Cabo freak fest '05. I recently got back from my 3rd Baja weekender. Manny knows every wave and caters to the board you choose to ride. My bodyboarding group scored a secret wedge that I was hoping to ride for a while. Not only are there waves, the trip include lots of tasty food such as Breakfast Burritos, Tacos and Lobster. Thanks for showing me a great time MV. I'll see you on the next trip!

    This was my second trip to Baja with Manny and I had an amazing time! Epic Surf Tours is now, officially, above and beyond. I mean...not that the first trip wasn’t a blast (because it was), but with the new digs, new car, and new adventures, it’s now freakin EPIC! I love that it’s truly a surf trip and Manny makes sure that surf is the top priority. I was fed beyond well, surfed my brains out, and I never felt unsafe. Plus, you get like a Bazillion photos of yourself at the end. I can’t wait to go again!
