Valley of Tequila Day Tour

Our Guadalajara-based Valley of Tequila day tour is a fun, educational, single-day experience designed for travelers visiting Guadalajara who are intrigued by tequila.

Working with local providers in Guadalajara and Tequila, we ensure that the standards of these guides are as high as our own.

We visit lesser-known tequila distilleries that are 100% independent, Mexican-owned, and cultivate a love for the land and a pride for their craft. You will leave with a new appreciation for the hard work of these tequila producers and the excellence of their products.

*MAKE IT PRIVATE: We also offer this as a private experience, for those who want more flexibility and individualized attention. .

Two Tequila Distillery Visits and Tastings

Typical destinations include Casacahuín (NOM 1123), Tequilas Selectos de Amatitán (NOM 1459), Tres Mujeres (NOM 1466), and La Alborada (NOM 1445). We choose the itinerary daily in order to maximize your exposure to active tequila production.

Tour FAQs

When will I be picked up for the tour?

Private day tour guests will be picked up at 10:00am. We begin picking up public day tour guests at 10:00am, and continue to pick up guests as we head towards the highway to Tequila. Please be ready by 10:00am, but understand that it may be closer to 11:00am if you are one of the last guests to be picked up. Please bear in mind that Guadalajara is a rapidly growing city of over five million people, with serious traffic problems. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

What distilleries will we visit, and can I request different distilleries?

Our day tours typically visit two of the following four distilleries: Casacahuín (NOM 1123), Tequilas Selectos de Amatitán (NOM 1459), Tres Mujeres (NOM 1466), La Alborada (NOM 1445). We choose each day’s distilleries based on their production schedules. With a private day tour, we can accommodate requests for which two distilleries you would like to visit. For other distilleries, please see our Custom Experiences page.

Can I use my own transportation for the tour?

No. For reasons of safety and liability, all tour transportation is provided by our professional insured drivers in comfortable, late-model vehicles.

Can I do the tour as a solo traveler?

Yes! We host many solo guests on our public day tours, and they quickly settle in with the group of fellow tequila travelers. All day tours require a minimum of two guests, and in the event that no one else has booked on that day, we will contact you to try and make other arrangements. In the event that we cancel a tour, you will receive a full refund. Private day tours have a firm minimum of two guests or $400 US dollars.

Should I bring cash to purchase tequila?

Yes! You should carry Mexican pesos. Distilleries and other stops on the tour are generally not able to accept credit cards or foreign currencies.

No better way to experience the tequila industry. We tasted incredible tequilas, saw first-hand how tequila is made, learned about the local culture, ate amazing food and walked multiple distilleries with the owners themselves. Unbelievable experience.

If you love tequila, unrivaled hospitality and a touch of adventure, this is it. Professional yet relaxed, they have nailed the line between higher-end travel and letting your hair down.

Bring an extra suitcase for bottles of tequila, a lot of room in your stomach, an open mind, a full heart, and an inquisitive spirit and you'll have the time of your LIFE.
