Welcome to my hosted cruise! I’ll be your host pre-cruise and throughout our sailing, helping you navigate every step of the way. Come join the fun — I’ll be organizing a Meet & Greet, onboard activities, games, and of course, our group photo in matching VFC shirts. I’ll be available to answer questions, share tips, and make sure you have a great time both on land and at sea.
This is the perfect winter reset: sail from San Diego down Baja and along Mexico’s Pacific coast for sunshine, beaches, and bold flavors—balanced with relaxing sea days to enjoy the ship. Think Cabo’s famous arches, Mazatlán’s old-town charm, and Puerto Vallarta’s seaside energy, all in one easy week.
