Raj's Last Ride
Terminal Velocity: Raj's Last Free Fall
5 days of pure adrenaline in Cabo — Raj's getting the VIP treatment he earned
Home Base
The Cape, a Thompson Hotel
Luxury Boutique Resort
The Cape is the ultimate Cabo power move — design-forward suites with ocean views, rooftop bar overlooking El Arco, and direct beach access. Perfect for an adrenaline junkie like Raj who wants luxury without being stuck in a massive resort. The rooftop becomes your private pregame HQ, and the location puts you 2 min from the Marina nightlife. Pricing is estimated based on luxury resort market rates for February.
$4,500–$6,000 total (split 10 ways = $450–$600/person/night)/nightDay 1 — Wheels Down, Adrenaline Up
Arrive at Los Cabos International Airport (SJD)
Crew lands. Private shuttle waiting with cold Clase Azul reposado and agua fresca. 35-min drive to The Cape.
Tip: Have the best man text the group the shuttle details 24 hours prior — nobody gets lost on arrival day.
Check-in at The Cape, a Thompson Hotel
Suites with ocean views, rooftop bar access, beach setup. Drop bags, change into swim trunks. Welcome kit waiting in Raj's suite.
Tip: Request early check-in when booking — saves 30 min of waiting around.
Pool & Beach Settle-In
Crew hits the beach and pool at The Cape. First round of drinks, acclimate to Cabo, get the energy up. Raj's already amped — keep it rolling.
Tip: Apply sunscreen NOW or regret it all night. February sun is still brutal.
Skydiving Briefing & Gear-Up (Cabo Sky Diving)
Drive 15 min to the drop zone. Gear fitting, safety briefing, GoPro helmet setup. Raj goes first — 15,000 ft freefall over the Pacific. Crew watches from the ground, loses their minds.
Tip: Book the GoPro footage package — this is the money shot for the trip video.
Post-Jump Debrief & Dinner Prep
Back at The Cape by 7 PM. Crew is buzzing. Shower, change into dinner clothes. Pregame at the rooftop bar with Clase Azul and ceviche.
Tip: Rooftop bar has the best sunset views in Cabo — grab a table early.
Dinner at Solomon's Landing (Steakhouse)
Marina-front steakhouse, massive portions, party atmosphere. Wagyu ribeye for Raj (medium-rare, obviously), family-style sides. Bottles of Clase Azul on the table. This is the first night vibe-setter.

Pisces Sportfishing Charter Departure
Private 6-hour deep-sea fishing charter. Raj's in his element — hunting marlin, tuna, dorado. Crew takes turns on the reel. Captain handles the heavy lifting. Lunch and beer on the boat.

Dinner at Edith's (Fine Dining)
Open-air fine dining with sand floors and mesquite-grilled lobster. Upscale vibe, perfect for the big night. Wagyu option for Raj if he wants another ribeye. Bottles flowing.

Transition to El Squid Roe (Secondary Club)
Party bus takes crew 5 min to El Squid Roe — three-story open-air megaclub, body shots, conga lines, pure chaos. Crew is in peak form. Raj is the center of attention.
Tip: El Squid Roe is the 'anything goes' club — embrace the chaos, but watch out for the conga line initiators.
Late-Night Tacos & Wind-Down
Party bus drops crew at Tacos Gardenias (late-night taco stand, local legend). Greasy, perfect, exactly what you need at 2:30 AM. Crew eats standing up, laughing.

Tip: Order the breakfast burrito — it's massive and exactly what you need.
Pool & Chill Time
Post-brunch pool recovery. Sunscreen, water, light conversation. Let the hangovers fade. This is the genuine recovery window — no forced activity.

Crew hits 2–3 local dive bars (Baja Brewing Company rooftop, then smaller local spots). No VIP tables, no bottle service — just good beer, pool tables, and locals. Raj's in his element with the crew.

THE ROAST — Honoring Raj
Private dining room at Flora Farms. Best man stands up. 3-part roast: (1) Opener joke about 'Flat Tire Raj' and the jeep registry, (2) One outlandish-but-true story (pick the wildest moment from a past trip), (3) Sincere tribute about Raj's loyalty and why he's worth marrying. Each groomsman adds a 30-second roast or toast. Crew is laughing, Raj is emotional, this is the core memory.
Tip: Have the best man practice the roast 2 days prior — timing and delivery matter. Designate someone to record video on a phone.
Post-Roast Celebration & Final Club Night
Crew is hyped. Party bus picks up at Flora Farms. Final night out — Mandala or El Squid Roe again, or Taboo Los Cabos pool party (if open at night). Crew celebrates Raj's roast, dances, drinks, lives in the moment.

Tip: Have the treasurer send a final Venmo summary 2 hours before departure — everyone pays up before leaving.
Airport Shuttle Departure
Private shuttle to Los Cabos International Airport (SJD). 35-min drive. Crew heads home with stories, photos, and memories.
Tip: Book flights after 3 PM so nobody rushes checkout — gives the crew time to sleep in and enjoy the final morning.

Pro Tips
- - Raj's rolling jeeps — book the ATV tour with a reputable operator and make sure he's on a quad, not a jeep. The crew will roast him either way, but at least he'll be safe.
- - February is peak season in Cabo — book restaurants 3–4 weeks ahead, especially Flora Farms and Solomon's Landing. Don't wait.
- - Party bus driver knows the Marina route — let them navigate. Crew focuses on drinks and vibes, not directions.
- - Clase Azul Reposado is Raj's drink — have bottles at the hotel, in the party bus, and on the boat. This is the through-line of the trip.
- - GoPro footage from the skydiving is GOLD — edit it into a trip video and send it to the group chat within a week. This becomes the highlight reel.
- - Sunscreen is non-negotiable — February sun in Cabo is brutal. Reapply every 2 hours or everyone's burnt by Day 2.
- - Bad Bunny and Maluma on the pregame playlist — Raj's music, full volume. The crew will know every word by Day 3.
- - The roast at Flora Farms is the core memory — have the best man practice 2 days prior and designate someone to record video. This moment matters.
