Mazatlan with El Quelite and Tequila!

Denise_B, Nov 2023

Jesus Jr and Senior were great. Together they share the history of Mazatlan. We loved the food in El Quelite and can't say enough about the staff. Thank You, Denise

Mazatlan Tequila and Small Villages Tour

Jeanne_S, May 2023

Father and son, guide and driver team of Jesus Senior and Jesus Junior did a fantastic job. Especially after the glitch that the original tour guide thought that May 28, 2023 was Monday and not Sunday. When he didn't show up after a 30 minute delay, I had to call the tour operator to find out what happened and that's when they realized the tour guide had the wrong day of the week and booked himself for another tour. The tour operator did find us Jesus Sr. and Jr., but by this time, we lost 1.5 hours of the morning and by the time we arrived at the tequila factory, Jesus Sr. actually had to take us on the tour himself. The same at Puenta de Canoas, where the dancing horses are. Jesus Sr. was able to ask them to put on a show for our group, which they did.

Great experience seeing the countryside near Mazatlan in a large 14 passenger van.

Ed_L, Jan 2023

Friends experienced a fantastic tour on our stop at Mazatlan. Tour guide Ivan was fantastic on our visit to little rural communities, a wonderful and tasty distillery, and then to a delightful lunch (molcajete). We then returned to Mazatlan to see a bit of the old town. All of us truly enjoyed the experience of getting out and seeing the countryside.

No El Quelite on this tour

Steve_W, Oct 2022

5 of us took this private van tour on 9/27. Really looking forward to going to El Quelite so we could eat at the amazing restaurant they have in El Quelite. That's the main reason we even booked this tour. Once we got in the van, the driver told us we would not be going to El Quelite because the bridge on the road to El Quelite was out, had been out for quite a while and they didn't know when the bridge would be fixed. He said the only other way to get there was rough dirt roads way out of the way. We did the other two villages, the tequila tour then back to Mazatlan for lunch. Before you book this tour make sure the bridge to El Quelite is fixed.

Amazing! Highly recommend

We had a great tour with Jose! He was very personable and shared a lot of interesting information about the region. We loved the town of El Quelite and the lunch was amazing! I went with my family including a toddler and everyone enjoyed the trip. Would highly recommend.

Exceeded Expectations

Had a wonderful tour on our Princess Cruise. Carlos was an excellent tour guide. He was personable, educated about the area, and enjoyable companion for the day. Would highly recommend to anyone on a cruise and looking to do just a little more than walk around the cruise port. Great value.

Mom and daughter FUN!

Jorge was an excellent guide. He knows the history of Mazatalan and all of the villages we visited. He is a wealth of knowledge. The van was very comfortable with great air conditioning. We loved the Tequila Distillery tour with the tastings and the old machinery. It was a very picturesque setting. El Quelite was a charming town and we had a lovely lunch on a beautiful patio. We even stopped at the Tropic of Cancer for photos. A visit to the small candy factory, a one man pottery shop and two leather stores enhanced the trip.

JeanCarlo is an excellent driver and guide. All six of us had an unforgettable experience with his local knowledge and history of the area.The only other comment I wish to make is the couple in the back of the van could not hear all of JeanCarlo's commentary. A portable microphone would make all the difference, thanks again
