Baja is a great place to RV and is easy for the first timer in Mexico. Unless you like the companionship and cost of a caravan, this is a trip you can easily do yourself. This is our sixth yr. of visiting Mexico for the winter and are currently in San Miguel de Allende. Our first Mexican trip was to Baja. To find campgrounds, get "The Traveler's Guide to Mexican Camping" or "The Traveler's Guide to Camping Mexico's Baja" by Mike and Terri Church. www.rollinghomes.com There is an older book called "Exploring Baja by RV" by the Petersons which was very good and had history and other comments, but is out of date a little.

We have found Lewis & Lewis to have very good rates although most should be about the same. www.mexicanautoinsurance.com We get ours by the year.

We don't speak Spanish, our bad, but we have always had our needs met. The people are friendly and helpful. We always go to Goodwill or like shops and load up on good quality toys for the kids.

Would recommend crossing the border at Tecate. It is very easy and quick. Stop at the "Deaf and Dumb School RV Park between Tecate and Ensenada and go to the local wineries. Take some school supplies for the students. Visit Todos Santos. See the whales.
