    Would recommend
    Isabel_C, May 2024
    Went on brews, views and tacos tour. Noe was on time and easy to find. Not sure what the guy who wrote the review about not being able to find him was talking about. He even sent a video showing exactly where he was. So that is a non issue. Noe spent most of his life in USA and speaks English fluently. I went on this tour with my toddler and family and he customized it to us and was great being patient with our kid/car seat, etc. The fish taco place that is his second destination is really good and definitely wouldn’t have gone there without this guy taking me. The other spots you might be able to find your way to, but it is nice to have a local guy who knows the places and can make solid menu recommendations, etc. I would definitely recommend this tour.
    Hard to find the meeting place
    Rick_T, Apr 2024
    We left our ship a half hour early to walk to the “meeting place”. It was raining the whole walk. We noticed the “streets” were not clearly marked. We found the museum noted, but the “behind the museum” where we were supposed to meet was a vacant lot. We circled the block twice, looking for some sign of where we were supposed to be picked up. We stood there in the rain not knowing what to do. We did not feel safe to try flagging down random cars, asking if they were our ride. There were no signs, nor was there a person with a marked vehicle so we would know who our ride was. True, the guy said he tried to text and call us, but we did not have cell coverage, so he never could get in touch with us. After circling the block twice, and then waiting in the rain for about 10 minutes, we decided to just go back to our ship. We did not get to take our tour, and we felt like this was a total comedy of errors! The final blow was that our request for a refund was denied.
    Response from Host, May 2024
    I'm sorry for your experience on this day. As you can see from all my previous reviews, I strive for nothing but the best for all visitors. In this occasion the driver was at the pickup location 15 minutes early and waited an extra 20 minutes before leaving. During this time the driver did try every way possible to make contact with your party, as you stated, unfortunately you didn't have service in port and this was unsuccessful. The rain that day was also a factor I'm sure and standing around waiting for pickup in the rain I'm sure is not ideal. Again I'm sorry you had this experience. I feel this was a case of unfortunate events and the rain added to that. We are very flexible with refund requests however when a driver was dispatched, arrived early, waited extra time and made every effort we could possibly make to make contact with your party... it is not possible to issue a refund. This is the first time this type of thing has happened and I will make some adjustments to our side of operations to ensure this doesn't happen again. What I would like to offer if you are willing to accept is a free tour on your next visit to port for you and your party. I would love the opportunity to host you and make sure you have a great time on your next visit. You can find my contacts info in the listing for the tour. Apologies again for this unfortunate experience.
    Delivers what it promises
    Patrick_B, Apr 2024
    If you’re looking for something different this is it! It does exactly what it advertises, takes you places with good views, good brews and good tacos. Most of the places you visit are off the beaten track and feel like a secret.
    Great food
    Dorian_H, Feb 2024
    I can go on & on about this tour!!! We LOVED the ceviche!! We LOVED the tacos!! The tequila tour & beer spots were AWESOME & we had the BEST tour guy ever, Noe!!! Definitely a must do if you’re in Ensenada!!
    Great local spots
    Sandra_S, Feb 2024
    Tour guide was friendly, flexible, and took us to places that was local with great food. We enjoyed the local places with deli food!
    A fun and memorable day, a great experience for sure!
    Darren_F, Jan 2024
    The excursion was fantastic, very fun and educational. Our guide Glen was super friendly and knowledgeable about the city of Ensanada and the places he took us to. The tequila tasting was one of the highlights of the tour, it was a blast. The fish & shrimp tacos from Tacos Fenix were the best ever. The views and brews were great too. Super fun day and we will do it again in the future with friends and family. Thanks again Glen!
    Response from Host, Jan 2024
    Glen is awesome! I'm so happy to hear how much you enjoyed the day! Thank you so much for choosing us for your port day.
    Noe was Professional,...
    DaNeice_E, Dec 2023
    Noe was Professional, Kind, and took us to Spots with Over the Top Great Food. The Breweries had Wonderful Craft Beers and the Views were Spectacular. The Best Excursion on our Cruise!!
    This was 10 out of 10.
    Stacey_D, Dec 2023
    Noe, the guide, very accommodating and took my peanut allergy seriously. We had amazing tacos, ceviche, tequila tasting and went to a Brewery! The view from the brewery was absolutely amazing, we were able to get a beer, sit on a patio and enjoy the beauty! He is very knowledgeable about area and was a lot of fun! Would use him again without any reservations!
    Great time!
    DandDM, Nov 2023
    Great time with informative and fun guide, Noe. Would do it again! Was worried that we would need pesos for food and drink, but everywhere we went took US dollars or credit card.
    Great Ensenada Tour With Delightful People
    Melissa_S, Oct 2023
    Noe and Glenn (and family!) are delightful! We had a wonderful time eating and drinking around Ensenada. Noe adjusted the itinerary to accommodate our kiddo and all 3 generations had a great experience. So much better than an impersonal cruise ship tour!
    Delicious local food
    Frances_M, Jul 2023
    This was the best excursion ever! Our tour guide Noe was excellent! We were able to see the inner city and eat at local outdoor eateries where the food was amazing and the prices were low. My grand daughter said the taco that she had from the vendor in the photo was the best one she has ever eaten. Noe gave up some history of Ensenada. We also went to a shopping area and he was so patient with us. If we ever go back, we will definitely look for Noe. Oh, I neglected to mention the brewery. We went to three, but two would have been enough. The first one that we went to, Transpeninsular was great. The owners greeted us and explained the different beers that were made on the premises. It was a very nice experience and we felt very welcomed, and the beer was delicious. The other two left a lot to be desired. But, even so, the tour was great!
    Must-do in Ensenada!
    AnneMarie_G, Jul 2023
    Awesome! Noe is very pleasant, patient, and knowledgeable! He picked great spots for us to try authentic street tacos and breweries. There were 5 of us and we all absolutely enjoyed this tour! A must-do in Ensenada!
    Excellent service
    Jay_G, Jul 2023
    Excellent service by Noe, he’s very accommodating, fluent in the area and English , he goes out of his way to accommodate your schedule, your tour and requests. Also he’s very comfortable to get along with, has super positive energy and attitude. I definitely recommend him .

Thank you Noe !
    Fantastic tour to experience Ensenada in a few hours.
    Caroline_F, Jun 2023
    This was an amazing tour. Noe was a wonderful tour guide and when he saw I had two children with me, he customized the tour slightly so we did not go to all of the brewery stops. He was very knowledgeable about Ensenada, was able to recommend the best things to eat at the stops, and it was a really wonderful excursion. I would definitely do it again.
    Fun and tasty tour for a cruise stop
    Rehj_H, May 2023
    Tour has lots of potential. Noe is great and with a few tweeks, this will undoubtedly be THE Ensenada tour to take! If you're taking this from a cruise ship, there is a considerable walk from the pier to meet up with Noe, and also think about skipping the "views" portion, which will give you more time for BREWS! Be warned, both taco vendors are stand up to eat, shoulder to shoulder with locals, which is a wonderful experience, but some might not like standing to eat. Be sure to get a shrimp or octopus cocktail at the first taco stand.... Simply AMAZING! Save room for the second taco stop as their tacos are DELICIOUS and much cheaper! I wonder if it would be better to put 1 taco visit at the first and 1 at the end, so you're hungry at both spots. We'd skip the last beer joint as it's just a beer garden. Spend the majority of your time at Pacific Brews and sit inside with the cool breeze and nice view of the ocean. For the price of this tour, the vehicle needs to be reliable, clean and with working A/C. To be fair, Noe had just bought this van, and we hope he adds some seat covers and cleans the odd feline smell in the rear! The tacos were FANTASTIC and the beer drinkers LOVED the brews! Thanks for a great time, Noe!
    Superb day in Ensenada !
    Alain_R, May 2023
    Perfect tour to explore Ensenada ! The 2 stops for tacos were fabulous and very inexpensive ! The 3 stops in the local breweries let us taste beers we can’t find anywhere else. Finally, the stop at the top of the hill gives an extraordinary view of the region. Unfortunatly, it was a bit foggy when we were in Ensenada… All in all a great tour that we highly recommand !
    Great tour of Ensenada street food and micp brews, with photo opps too
    John_B, Apr 2023
    Noe was personable, flexible with our itinerary, and a perfect English speaker. We hit two great street taco vendors with tasty local seafood. Highly recommended.
    Great off the beaten path tour!
    Rebecca_E, Feb 2023
    Great mix of street food and brews with a view! We loved the locals experience and the local beer scene. Good just for the chance to see outside tourist areas alone!
    If you like beer and tacos, this tour's for you
    Chau_P, Feb 2023
    Very glad we booked this tour. Noe was awesome, super easy to communicate with to set up meeting location. Could we have visited each of these spots on our own? Yes, but having the local insider knowledge to give context and tell stories (and know all the parking spots) was invaluable. We were running a little early so he even threw in a quick stop to an amazing overlook above the city. We didn't do the photography option, but if you want to get some really cool opportunities for pics would highly recommend. The food was great but the breweries were the stars. We ended up getting flights each place and the overall quality of the brewing was impressive. Thabks again to Noe for a fantastic experience!
