3.Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 44 reviews · 6 to 7 hours (approx.) · from $191Top rated

Travel privately from Guadalajara to Tequila with a driver-guide such as Jesus, Ruben, Juan, or Renzo. Visit Tequila Selecto and Fortaleza, taste four Fortaleza expressions, explore Tequila town, and finish with a clay-pitcher cantarito in Amatitán.

“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.”

What was supposed to be a family tour ended up just being my husband and I so we enjoyed being by ourselves and the ability to be a little flexible. Jesús is friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about Guachimontones and tequila. It was refreshing to have someone know so much about both which enabled us to really be immersed into the experience.
