A Journey Beyond the Ordinary: How Ensenada Excursions and Tours Came to Life
There are moments in life that demand a complete reset, a shift from the daily grind to something more meaningful, more personal. For Jesse Ryan Atkinson, founder of Ensenada Excursions and Tours, this reset came after experiencing burnout, cancer, and a heartbreak that pushed him to seek peace and purpose. In 2011, he moved to the coastal city of Ensenada, Mexico, not knowing that his life’s next chapter would be written in the rolling hills and vibrant culture of this beautiful region.
Jesse’s journey of healing mirrored the scenic calm of Ensenada itself. “The peaceful outdoors, slower pace, and welcoming community became my sanctuary,” Jesse reflects. As he healed, the idea of exploring nature with a new sense of wonder began to take root. His mission was clear, he wanted to share this transformative experience with others, guiding travelers to experience Ensenada not just as tourists, but as locals who discover its hidden corners and unforgettable moments.
From Burnout to Breakthrough: The Creation of Ensenada Excursions and Tours
What began as a small business venture, Ensenada Massage, quickly evolved into something far bigger, a realization that visitors to the city were facing too many obstacles while navigating its wonders. From the frustration of overcrowded tour buses to the complexity of language barriers, Jesse recognized that travelers weren’t experiencing the city’s true beauty. That’s when a simple but transformative idea emerged.
“In 2019, I went on a Carnival Cruise, and I was struck by the chaos,” Jesse recalls with a smile. “Even in my own city, I saw long waits and throngs of people. I thought to myself, there has to be a better way to see Ensenada.” Inspired by this realization, Jesse decided to offer a more private, personalized, and customizable option for visitors. That was the moment Ensenada Excursions and Tours was born.
Today, the company stands as a beacon of personalized travel in Ensenada, offering guests the ability to create their own adventure, away from crowded, rigid itineraries. Whether it’s a day of wine tasting in Valle de Guadalupe, a peaceful beach retreat, or a delicious street taco tour, Jesse’s vision is to offer flexibility, freedom, and the magic of a stress-free adventure. “I wanted to give people the freedom to choose their own experience, without being bound by large groups or pre-planned routes,” he says. “It’s about creating memories, not just sightseeing.”

“Our team is made up of Ensenada residents, so we can offer recommendations that go beyond the usual tourist traps,” Jesse explains. “We know the best microbrews, the tacos stands with the longest lines for the best reasons, and the shopping spots you won’t find in guidebooks.” The team’s insider knowledge means that every tour is infused with a sense of authenticity, turning a simple trip into a true local experience.
The company’s focus on safety, especially in a post-pandemic world, adds another layer of value.
