WHEN
Since 1974
Baja Expeditions is Baja's oldest adventure DMC. Founded by conservationist and adventure travel pioneer Tim Means over 50 years ago, the company began by leading small groups of guests into the sierras of Baja to view forgotten aboriginal cave paintings. Tim sadly passed away in 1999, but his ethos remains rooted in all operations.
