• 5Tequila Experience

  Our tour guide Carmen and our driver Martin were amazing. You can tell Carmen loves her job and enjoys sharing her knowledge of tequila. Although the weather was not perfect she did not let that damper the experience. Martin also always made us feel safe although the road were effected by the rain. Our group was the only English speaking guests, but Carmen always made us feel included in every conversation. The first stop at Don Elias’ Distillery was so beautiful and the tequila was delicious. Carmen gave us a great education and experience we will never forget. Our next stop in the town of Tequila was just as good. We had a Beautiful lunch and were able to tour the quaint streets of Tequila. Thanks again to Carmen and Martin for making our day unforgettable.

• 5Lovely to see the Agave fields and Tequila distillery

  We were lucky and it was just us so we could return to Guadalajara sooner, and opt out of a second distillery tour. Tequila town was nice if a bit overwhelming at first.

• 5Excelente tour

  Our tour guide Jose Luis was extremely knowledgeable and articulate. He picked us up on time at our hotel in a very clean and comfortable van. We visited 2 distilleries where we learned about tequila production and enjoyed detailed tastings, and also visited agave fields and discussed its cultivation. Altogether it was a great introduction to this fascinating spirit. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who really wants to learn about tequila and visit the magical town of Tequila. Gracias Jose Luis!

About Guadalajara

Guadalajara, capital of Jalisco, is a big Mexican city of colonial plazas, murals, mariachi and tequila, in the highlands of the west.

Guadalajara sits in the western highlands, at around 1,500 metres, and calls itself the cradle of mariachi and tequila. The historic centre is arranged around a cross of plazas, with the twin spires of the cathedral, the Palacio de Gobierno, which has a huge mural of Miguel Hidalgo by José Clemente Orozco, and the neoclassical Degollado Theatre. The Hospicio Cabañas, a former orphanage, is a UNESCO site with more Orozco murals.
