Amazing day trip to Tequila and ancient pyramids
This was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Our guide was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole day both fun and informative.
We started at the Guachimontones pyramids, which was a highlight. There were hardly any people there, so it felt like we had the entire site to ourselves. The guide explained the history in a really engaging way, and we also visited the museum afterwards, which helped bring everything together.
Next, we went to La Alborada Distillery, where we got a full behind the scenes look at the entire tequila production process. Everything was explained in detail, from the cooking ovens to the barrels and distillation.
One of the most unique parts was actually tasting the agave at different stages. First, we tried it fresh out of the oven, still warm, and later again after it had been processed, when it was softer and noticeably sweeter. That was such a cool and memorable experience.
We even got to try working with the agave ourselves, which made it feel very hands on. The tasting at the end was excellent.
After that, we visited the town of Tequila. We had free time to walk around, explore the colorful streets, and take it all in. The timing was perfect and everything felt very relaxed.
It was also a very small group, just a couple and me, which made the whole experience feel much more personal.
Our guide was not only a very safe driver, but also just a genuinely great person, fun, engaging, and clearly very knowledgeable. I cannot believe I forgot his name, but he really made the entire experience feel easy and enjoyable.
Overall, an amazing day with a perfect mix of history, culture, and fun.
Highly recommend, 5 stars.

Tour was fantastic. Edgar...
Tour was fantastic. Edgar puts on a great itinerary that is spaced out perfectly. He was also extremely accommodating, does the little things without you having to ask. He was also extremely good at knowing when to be a guide, when to be a friend, and also when to leave you and the group hangout alone. 10/10 guy and a great experience.

Chapala
The tour followed the itinerary presented in the description. Javi was our charismatic tour guide and he did a fine job providing information of the spots we went to. My suggestions to the tour planner is to cut time from the Ranch and tequila tasting visit by 15 minutes each and add those to Chapala. The town of Chapala is a lovely spot to watch the sunset.

Amazing day out
Had a great time on this tour. Our guide Francisco was very knowledgeable and theatrical - especially as he spoke in both English and Spanish throughout the day. Lots of great tequila tastings and local information plus some free time in the town of Tequila.

Take the tour!
We had an amazing time on this tour! The vibes and locations were absolutely awesome. Everything was well organized, and the experience was both interesting and fun.
Our tour guide, Carmen, was the best! She was knowledgeable and made the whole experience even better with her energy and explanations. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and driver. 100% Highly recommend this tour!

I feel like a Charreria
Our visit to this family-run ranch was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, we could feel the warmth and pride that generations have poured into this place. Our guide, Jorge, went above and beyond—patiently answering all our questions, making sure everyone in our family was comfortable, and helping us truly enjoy every moment.
We learned about the rich history of the ranch and its skilled riders, practiced roping and lassoing, rode beautiful horses, and even got a taste of authentic tequila. The highlight was the personal touch—a private, intimate moment with guitar music and singing that made the day magical.
This tour offered fun, culture, and genuine hospitality all wrapped into one unforgettable day. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic and heartwarming ranch experience!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐An exceptional, in-depth tequila experience-worth every peso
I can’t say enough good things about The Agave Experience Tequila Tour. From start to finish, this was one of the most well-designed, informative, and enjoyable tours I’ve done in Jalisco.
Our tour guide was outstanding—extremely knowledgeable, articulate, and clearly passionate about tequila. As a mixologist, I already understand the basics of tequila production, but what really impressed me was her ability to go far beyond the surface. She answered all of my technical questions in detail and walked us through every single step of the process with a depth of information I didn’t expect. It was refreshing to be on a tour that didn’t oversimplify things and instead respected curious, knowledgeable guests.
Our first stop was Cava de Oro, and it was absolutely stunning. The distillery has a rustic, romantic hacienda-style atmosphere that feels authentic and timeless. The setting alone is worth the visit—beautiful courtyards, barrel rooms, and multiple tasting areas. A detail I really appreciated: all tequila tastings were served in proper glassware, not plastic shot glasses. It elevated the entire experience and showed real respect for the spirit.
The second distillery was another artisanal operation, and honestly—it produced the best tequila I’ve ever had. Being able to see the full production side was fascinating: the bottle cleaning room, the factory line, and a small team of women carefully packaging tequila by hand. This tequila felt special, personal, and thoughtfully made. They also had incredible beef jerky on site, which was a fun and unexpected bonus.
Later, we headed into the town of Tequila itself, where we had time to walk around the main central area. The energy was lively—people celebrating, music playing, and a small market where you can buy tequila-related goods and local souvenirs. It was the perfect balance of cultural immersion and fun.
Lunch was at Casa Sauza, located inside the Jose Cuervo Distillery. The food was good by Mexican standards—solid, flavorful, and satisfying. Breakfast earlier in the day was a small, authentic Mexican spot that felt very local. While the food wasn’t anything extraordinary, it was genuinely traditional and absolutely worth experiencing. I tried cactus tacos for the first time, and once I added cilantro, onion, salsa, salt, and seasoning, they were delicious. A charming touch: there was a friendly pet rooster wandering around the restaurant, which made the experience feel even more authentic.
By the end of the day, I was full, happy, slightly buzzed, and genuinely felt like I had made lifelong friends. The pacing of the tour was excellent, the variety of experiences was thoughtful, and nothing felt rushed.
If you’re even remotely interested in tequila—whether you’re a beginner or someone with real knowledge—this tour is 100% worth the money. It’s educational, fun, beautifully curated, and leaves you with a deep appreciation for tequila, the people who make it, and the region itself.
Highly, highly recommend.

Lucha Libre Main Event
Checo was a fantastic tour guide!! This event was fun, entertaining and just all around exciting! His personality was top notch, one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. The group we had was so much fun! We meet some great people, had great tequila shots and drinks. If you like wrestling go on this tour with Checo, trust me you will not regret it! Thank you Checo for this awesome experience!

Fun and freedom in Tequila
Not what I was expecting but a great time nonetheless. Less of a tour, more like booking a driver for the day. Very friendly, great driver, a little English (to match our little Spanish). He took us to Fortaleza (a must-visit, absolutely outstanding) and then let us do what we wanted. We had an appointment at Arette (must go) and then he took us for lunch and drinks at a roadside spot. Delicious molcajete. Then back to Guadalajara. We loved the freedom and were comfortable with limited English, but if you’re looking for a structured day this may not be for you. It was definitely for us - highly recommended.

Great tour of Tonala. Noemi knows Guadalajara and her surrounding cities.
I always try to do a Viator in each city that I go to with a local tour guide. Naomi was great and I contacted her a few days before and she found out what I wanted to do my interest and she tailored my day tour. She was on time met me at our pick up Location and was professional and knew the city.
