Most of the people you meet will tell you that you are crazy for hitching, but pick you up none the less. In-town hitching is much more widely accepted and you will often see trucks filled with people in the back. The biggest problem with hitching across Baja is that the amount of traffic depends heavily on the tourist season. Surfers are a good bet for a ride, at least across Baja north. Expect that traversing the entire peninsula will take you between 3 1/2 - 4 days, less if in the tourist season. Be adamant about not carrying drugs when your driver asks if you are caring any. Your average wait is about an hour and a half, but do not be surprised if you wait up to four.
