Nice video. As a resident of La Paz I might add that there are many authentic Mexican restaurants that are much less expensive than the places you showed. Visitors should know La Paz is a casual family oriented pueblo with a very welcoming vibe. Thanks for sharing La Paz!

[@EatSeeRV]

Definitely. We REALLY enjoyed our time there and went to many different restaurants. These were just the ones we filmed

[@gm.2460]

Do you have any recommendations ? Thank you :)

[@HaveANiceDay777]

We are going in November. Any recommendations?

[@omartheegreat]

@mexigail what restaurants do you recommend?

[@mexigail]

@@omartheegreat We enjoy the more authentic economical places here in La Paz. A 'nice' sit down restaurant with good food, service and prices is Los Magueyes on Allende. Our regular places we enjoy include La Parrilla Norteña, Casa Jalisco, La Cocina de Maria and Tiguas 664. We find a more authentic food experience and more locals than tourists.

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

The malecon in La Paz really is the best! Espiritu Santo truly is magical - spent many, many nights on our boat overnight at anchor there. Ensenada Grande… The beaches 🥰

We’ve stayed at Maranatha briefly and I agree it’s the nicest I’ve seen. Even if we’re only passing by we always stop at their coffee shop for a cappuccino and cinnamon bun! Next year we plan to stay at Maranatha for a week or so while heading south. It’ll be a chance to get to know La Paz better. Great video!

[@EatSeeRV]

Awesome! Enjoy 😍

[@GaagiiLammers]

Carnitas Los Yñiguez is the BEST! The people there are lovely and their food is simple and delicious. Best carnitas in town, maybe the best on the planet!

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

PS Balandra used to have 10-30 people a day. We’ve anchored there too. I’m glad it’s being protected now. There was some serious vandalism 20? years ago. I would highly recommend El Tesoro for an afternoon of drinks, food & water - it’s a bit closer to La Paz. You did such a fabulous job of showing the best of La Paz! But I don’t ever want to go on that ferry to Maz ever again.

[@EatSeeRV]

Thanks for the recommendations! Why was the ferry so bad?

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

@@EatSeeRV the toilets were plugged & overflowing by the morning - we had purchased a two bed “cabin” and the air didn’t work - it was stifling and they gave us a box fan. We did see our good friends on their sailboats from the deck as we went up the Cerralvo Canal though! It has to be better now. Let me know how it goes.

[@garretlewis4103]

Some awesome scenery. How about a movie and TV reference. The mating birds in the beginning…..We were watching birds in the park and they were married. At least the boat ride wasn’t a three hour tour.

[@EatSeeRV]

Is that Gilligans Island?

[@garretlewis4103]

@@EatSeeRV Yes, Gilligan’s Island was the three hour tour. We know how that ended. The movie reference was Office Space when Milton was talking about the squirrels outside of his office window. They were mating and he referred to them being married.

[@gabrielpalomino6322]

Just some advice… this is actually a 45-50$ tour with lunch included. Second hand vendors will try to over sell the trip. Beautiful tour that we always do and never get tired of.

[@JCrozier1]

Going to ask you the toughest question you may have ever heard. Was it more cool on the whale trip 10 or so videos back, or the sea lions? I can't tell what you were most excited for. As always, excellent video and can't wait to see the next.

Haha it looked good! We went to Spain for two months later in the year so we saved our appetite for that.

Is it safe there?

[@adriankung1625]

This looked like a blast! Been loving your channel and especially all your Mexico adventures. I was wondering if the RV park has accomodations for someone driving a smaller SUV with a roof-tent or just a stand alone tent? $$ for that?? I'm planning an Epic road-trip with my 2012 Kia Sorento and want to just slow travel throughout Central and South America. The hope is that gas savings and the lower upfront cost (for me) will pay for many AirBnb / Affordable (read not too fancy) hotel stays, as well as low-cost campsites along the way. Any tips for a newbie whose never driven farther south than Oregon/Northern Cal would be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks, and Cheers!...from North Vancouver

[@EatSeeRV]

Sounds like an epic trip. We've found you will have to pay to camp most places regardless of your vessel aka tent vs RV or van. Don't expect a big discount either. But if you're a good negotiator maybe.

[@DeeDeevanGogh]

300US just to drive into Mexico in your car. Campsites are all expensive if you happen to find one because they aren't everywhere like in BC. You sound unprepared for the huge logistical trip you are planning. Wear and tear on your car will be massive. Roads (unless they are a paid toll highway) are crap and rough. If you break down good luck finding a mechanic which can fix your Kia. Parts will take days to get and they will charge you like crazy cause they know you have zero choice but to pay. You think you will save money driving down there? Think again. Better to fly to an AirBnB and rent a car to travel around.

[@adriankung1625]

@@DeeDeevanGogh Thanks for the input. Yes, I am unprepared at this point, for what is a huge logistical project. I could have been more clear -- saving money on gas and upfront costs versus buying and building out a van for the trip. Also Mx is just the beggining. I mean to slow travel all the way South as far as the roads go (Ushaia, Argentina). I also am aware that the Kia might not survive the whole trip as I want to make it - that has been true for many with "better suited" trucks, vans and other RVs, so I recognize that, and a plan B would involve flying to further points once I establish a "pseudo-base" where I get temporary residence somewhere like Ecuador, Mexico, Belize or Panama. Agree many of the roads are crap and the Sorento is barely even a "soft-roader" despite awd and locking diff etc. Probably, I'll be on toll highways in most places.

[@stevelui278]

Yup be ready to be robbed. Sad but unfortunately it happens all the time here and throughout tourist areas in mexico. Such a shame.

[@EatSeeRV]

Literally traveled through Mexico for a year and a half and never got "robbed". Perpetuating a risk that can happen in any major tourist area as a fact isn't helping anyone. If you really feel strongly about it you can advise people to be careful as they explore because robbery is a risk. Not an eventuality

[@stevelui278]

@EatSeeRV true. Just the risk is higher. I've unfortunately been robbed twice there. I don't believe my life was in danger at anytime it was just more of a shakedown and I didn't want to risk escalating or endangering myself or anyone over a few hundred dollars.

[@EatSeeRV]

Sorry to hear that happened. Definitely unfortunate and worthwhile to share the realities that can happen there. Just make sure you advise the risks not that it's a fact that will happen . Again bummer it was your experience!
