5We had such a great time...
We had such a great time on our tequila tour! The entire experience was so much fun, and we really enjoyed exploring the beautiful plaza and learning more about tequila. One of my favorite parts was tasting the cantaritos — absolutely delicious! Such a fun and memorable experience in Tequila, Jalisco. Highly recommend!
5This day trip was the whole enchilada!
We had a driver and a tour guide, Ramon, who is very knowledgeable about tequila. We were picked up at our hotel at 8:30 and our 1st stop was the Campo Agavero Ribeño agave fields in Amititan, where we were presented with a session on the agave growing process, then given a tasting of the some ery good artisinal tequilas. We then visited an artisinal tequila distiller, "Los Tres Tonios," where we had a comprehensive tour of the artisan and modern production facilities followed by an excellent tasting session. We then visited the town of tequila for a delicious lunch. I wish we had a bit more time to experience the town before our tour of the Jose Cuervo facilities. It was a great tour, but not as intimate and detailed as the one at Los Tres Tonios. The entire trip was 9 hours, with 3 hours on the road. I highly recommend this tour. We took a hotel booked tour to Lake Chapala a few days later and it was awful.
4Overall great time
Very informative in the short amount of time you have. The day flys by and I wish we had more time to simply enjoy the town of Tequila. Ramon was an excellent tour guide and assured everyone had a great time.
5This tour exceeded my...
This tour exceeded my expectations, thanks to Ramon. He did a phenomenal job guiding us—his deep knowledge of the sites, combined with engaging storytelling, made every stop meaningful and memorable. I really appreciated how he explained not just what we were seeing, but also the processes behind it, adding an extra layer of insight. His passion and attention to detail made the whole experience truly stand out. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone!
1Stood up
I booked the tour well in advance. The tour bus was supossed to pick us up at our hotel. We were waiting outside 15 minutes early and waited 45 minutes. No call no show. Ruined our vacation day. No apologies from the company no offers of restitution. But, they took our money instantly, and when we requested a refund through the app, they said 3-5 business days. What a sham.
5Great tour, highly recommend
Our guide was Hernan he did an excellent job of communicating with us, explaining and educating us not only topics pertinent to the tour but also Mexican culture and the country. He did not rush us and gave us recommendations on a restaurant and what food to order once we arrived in Tequila
