Nice tour, with good explanation given about tequila at José Cuervo

RINSE_K, Mar 2024

Nice tour, with good explanation given about tequila at José Cuervo. The tasting session and tour at the more artisenal tequila distillery was also very nice (and you can buy some really good tequilas over there, for reasonable price)

Great trip

Alexander_G, Mar 2024

Great staff and amazing tour except that they don’t drop you off back at your hotel. Other than that I recommend it amazing trip.

Fun and Engaging Tour

This tour was incredible. We booked this tour late on Saturday night for the very next day when our previously book tour (different company) was cancelled Saturday afternoon. The company was easy to contact through WhatsApp to confirm our group and share pick up details. I would recommend this tour to anyone and everyone. Our tour guide, Sebastian, was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable with a fun sense of humor. Our group had two people who did not speak spanish and Sebastian was great and flipping between spanish and english as he share fun anecdotes and the history of tequila. The tour included several stops. All very fun. The first stop had to be my favorite, a smaller distillery. Beautiful grounds and even some cool retro pickups parked out front. Our food stop for lunch was also tasty. The transportation itself was good. The van was comfortable even when the road got a little bumpy. By the end of the day, we all took a nice nap on the way back to the city.

FUN

Learned a lot of history and our tour guide Sebastian and the bus driver Martin were incredible and super fun. Also gave us a great lunch option with more than enough time to sightsee.

Do this tour!

RTony_S, Nov 2023

Definitely a must when in Mexico! We actually appreciated the smaller Tequila distillery, tour and tasting more than the Jose Cuervo experience…. Overall great day, awesome bilingual tour guide… if you speak English be sure to ask for English speaker! Also we loved and appreciated that the tour company picked up our group of nine at our Airbnb!

Tremendous Tequila

The Cuervo Tequila Tour

Ruben_A, Aug 2023

Walking through the La Riojeña destilery. Tasting the different types of tequila, cristalino, reposado, añejo and extra añejo and learning their related industrial processes.

This is a tour you can’t miss while you are in Guadalajara.

Alberto_E, Jul 2023

The entire trip was amazing. They picked us up at our hotel, took us around in a very comfortable van, Jose Cuervo experience was great Definitely well worth it.

Carmen the Great. Must-do tour

Andre_M, May 2023

Carmen is an incredible host. Full of energy and information. The tour is a MUST DO when in Guadalajara. Air con in the transport really helped! Make sure you book early as this will sell out.

Now I know how tequila is made!

Jose Cuervo factory was really neat, both the architecture and learning about tequila and how it is made. Town of Tequila is fun to explore, wish we had a bit more time there but overall a great day trip!
