Planning an overland trip to Baja.

In this video, I want to share with you how I plan a trip to beautiful Baja, what method I use and how the ‪@onXOffroad‬ app makes marking waypoints and routes an easy task. I also share with you a few tips so you can have an unforgettable and amazing adventure south of the border.

My father is a retired Colonel in the mexican army, I grew up with the military and these tips have always helped me go through military checkpoints: When coming to a military Check point: Roll down your Windows Turn off your headlights Turn on your inside lights Be courteous with the Military personnel When asked, state where you come from and where you are going. It is customary for military personnel to ask you what you do for a living, just answer. If they tell you they will perform a routine revision, do not refuse.

Good points, Military are there doing their job, I feel safe when there are military check points along the way

One of these days Marco!! Great info! Thanks

[@OVRLNDX]

You bet!

Can’t wait to see your trip. Definitely an inspiration to go explore. Baja is something I’ve always wanted to do.

[@OVRLNDX]

You should! You'll love it!

Also…don’t wear a pocket knife. We got stopped in Mexicali by the local police. They took our knives and placed them in the back of our rigs. They said that pocket knives cannot be within arms reach while driving.

[@OVRLNDX]

Thanks for the tip!

[@DrOksalev]

Thats BS on the part of the police. You are allowed to have a pocket knife in your car. They were just giving you a hard time being foreigners. But better to go along with it and a mile later you can take it out.

[@kristinkoepke5182]

On bucket list for sure. Need all the tips I can get. Thank you

[@OVRLNDX]

Glad it was helpful!

Marco, I really love this planning video. I have been wanting to go, but my non justified fear for not going was previously influenced by media reports and some bad apples seen in the news. Your outings and video experience has been very helpful. I am close to convincing my wife and hope to go down this year. Thank you very much. Much love my friend.

[@OVRLNDX]

You can do it! Baja is a beautiful destination for sure!

[@texasxlander]

I see me 😎 Beth says we need to do it again. 🙏🏼❤️

[@OVRLNDX]

Yes sir!

[@googleuser2170]

Baja is amazing, safe, and has great food. I am surprised more people don't overland there. Watch out for the topes though! Some of the speedbumps make the Rubicon trail feel like a cakewalk! :-P Just kidding.....

[@OVRLNDX]

I agree!

Hey Marco, this was very helpful. I've never used the route planning feature before. I'm headed to San Rafel Swell and Moab in April and will practice using this feature for that trip👍🙂

[@OVRLNDX]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ourborderlandadventures7352]

Hi Marco! Love your channel! I love sharing your videos too! Do you have plans on translating any of your videos in Spanish? I would love to share them to my Spanish speaking friends and family!

[@OVRLNDX]

Working on it!

[@eprohoda]

How aree things?. like-perfect done-

[@dukerque2324]

Great tips thanks question do you need a car permit?

[@OVRLNDX]

Not if you are only driving in the Baja peninsula, Baja and Baja sur are consider Free Zone, which means as a tourist you do not require vehicle permits
