    Captain Manny V Safely Shows You The Epic Side Of Baja

    Glassy waves, near-empty lineups and lobster -- what else could you want from a Baja surf weekend? Manny V is a fun, chill guide who is dialed in to all the best breaks and restaurants, speaks fluent Spanish, knows the locals and is all about making sure you have a great time. Our group of five women felt totally safe in and out of the water. Can't wait for the next one!

    A huge thanks to Manny for our first-ever (long-anticipated, much-hyped) surf trip to Mexico. We felt so safe and supported, and it was such a fun excursion knowing that Manny was so well-prepared and thought through every detail possible. The surf photography and videos were such a special treat, a

    Of course loads of Americans cross the border into Mexico all year long to enjoy all of the amazing things our neighboring country has to offer: the gracious Mexican people, the stunning natural beauty, the surf breaks, the food!! It's truly a wonderland. But I'm here to tell you that experiencing the adventure with Manny as your guide takes it to the next level! A van full of surf ladies, escorted by our amiable host, set off on Friday afternoon for our Epic journey. We were late getting into Puerto Nuevo for our lobster dinner, but our night was saved by a quick phone call to the owner of Manny's favorite lobster spot. The restaurant had closed, but opened up for us. An incredible lobster feast was served, we ate until we almost burst, and were beyond thankful to the hosts and Manny both. This was our first glimpse into the magic of having him with us. His relationships with the locals, built on respect and gratitude, is the special sauce. We experienced it at every turn. At Hortencia's K38 burrito stand, Manny was greeted with hugs. At the surf spot... more hugs. At the guard gate at Gaviotas, not hugs since these are big burly men, but heartfelt greetings just the same. When we

    10/10 Experience. Manny is the best guide I ever had! He took us to all the best food places and more importantly he showed off his 40 years of surf knowledge. I had the best time chasing the swell in Baja with my homies and new friend Manny. Can’t wait to do it again! I’m already planning my next trip with Manny… Also, Manny's knowledge of crossing the border was top-notch experience. It only took 45 minutes to cross instead of hours. Thanks again Manny! See you soon!

    This is probably my 6th Baja Weekender with Manny V. My stoke for Baja just keeps growing after each trip. Manny always makes sure you are well fed and have surfed your brains out. Not only is the entire experience epic but afterwards you get access to all your photos and videos he captured of you surfing. You can laugh at all your wipeouts, remember those good waves and good times you had. This trip is for any level of surfer who is looking to have that amazing Baja experience. Thanks Manny :)

    Manny knows what he is doing! Our trip was seamless from start to finish and was so much fun. Manny has a way of keeping things moving while also not making anyone feel pressured on time and letting the group go with the flow. He knows Mexico - and the places he leads tours - like the back of his hand. We felt safe the whole time and had such a blast. I highly recommend doing a tour with Manny. It'll be one of the best trips of your life!

    This trip is exactly what I needed!! No stress, no worries, Manny's got you covered. All I did was surf and eat my brains out!!! Manny has this trip soo dialed in I didn't even have to look at a menu. "What's for lunch Manny?" Lol... His years of making connections with the locals, partnerships with restaurants and housing, and the length he goes to make sure you enjoy yourself are extremely impressive. Everyone knows him and treats us like kings and queens. He knows all the best surf spots and his photos and videos are awesome. The house is beautiful!!! Everything you can want. Pool, check, Jacuzzi, check, and soo much more. He's great at breaking the ice and making people on the trip who just met feel like old friends. As soon as I came home I started booking the next trip!!

    This was my first surf trip to Baja and Manny set the bars high for future trips! Manny's expertise of the surf breaks, best food spots and more made it a memorable experience. The accommodations that we were provided were amazing and would definitely stay there again! If you like to have waves all to yourself, eat delicious food, and have a personal photographer then this trip is for you. Can’t wait to go back! Thanks Manny!

    Manny was the best tour guide anyone could ask for. Our group had an amazing time surfing, eating, and having fun... Manny took care of the rest. We stayed steps away from the surf break. The surf was amazing! And no crowds was a huge plus. The photos, videos, and drone footage turned out great as well. Already thinking of planning my next trip. Such a stoked time!!

    Good gosh...could we have had a better time? Everything was planned and executed to a "T". Manny took care of everything... from getting us safely down to Mexico with the least effort on our part, keeping us well fed, taking us to the best surf spots, filming, droning and photographing our every wave, providing sightseeing and shopping excursions, and just being an overall excellent tour guide. He is so knowledgeable about the area. I hadn't been to Mexico in years and am now ready to go back tomorrow! Manny is the consummate professional. I wish I had more words to describe and convey what a great time I, as well as the rest of the crew, had. Will definitely book another trip as soon as I can! Thanks again Manny!! You're the best!!
