You'll also compare two production methods: traditional (ancestral) and modern industrial, and taste how each influences the flavor and aroma of the same tequila types The distillery tour is completely private for you and your companions, allowing you to enjoy a personalized experience with plenty of opportunities to ask questions and learn directly from your guide.

3. After a 20-minute drive, continue to the heart of Tequila Pueblo Magico. Stroll through the colorful cobblestone streets of its historic center, where beautifully preserved architecture spans from the 17th to the 20th century. Unlike tours focused only on drinking and partying, this experience explores the region's rich history, from its indigenous roots and the Spanish colonial era to the rise of tequila production and tourism as the economic backbone of modern Tequila, Jalisco. You'll also have as long as you need to browse local markets filled with handcrafted souvenirs, artisanal products, and lesser-known local tequila brands. End your visit by enjoying authentic Jalisco cuisine at either the lively municipal market or one of Tequila's finest restaurants. Pair your meal with tequila cocktails or tequila tastings based on your preferences before returning to Guadalajara

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.
