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

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

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.”
