    Amazing Experience!

    Fina 18 was such an amazing experience! My husband and I were visiting the area and had always wanted to do a true agave spirits tour, not just a tasting, but an actual tour where we could learn about the process from start to finish. Fina 18 absolutely did not disappoint; it was even better than we expected! The farm was beautiful, and we loved getting to experience the farm while learning so much about agave spirits and the many different forms they can take. We enjoyed welcome drinks and tastings with a chocolate pairing, which was such a fun touch! Our guide happened to be Greg, the distiller himself, and what a treat it was to spend the day learning from him. His knowledge and passion really made the experience special. Everyone at Fina 18 was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they even helped us arrange transportation back to our hotel. That level of hospitality really stood out. We would definitely recommend Fina 18 to anyone interested in learning more about agave spirits, experiencing a beautiful farm, and getting away from the city for a memorable day. We left feeling like we had learned so much and had an incredible experience along the way!

    Best tour

    Fantastic tour and dialog. The chocolate pairings with the agave spirits were legit game-changers. ¿Pechuga? Sooo tasty. Alex, or guide and agave docent for the day was engaging and knowledgeable. He makes things fun. Carlos, our driver had cool stories about the areas we drove through on the way and was an excellent driver. Friends of ours who had visited Finca 18 previously told us "this is the one" (agave spirits tour to take). Now I'm letting you know, this is the one!

    Finca 18 Puerto Vallarta Tequila Tour + Chocolate Pairing: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Puerto Vallarta.

    How much does Finca 18 Puerto Vallarta Tequila Tour + Chocolate Pairing cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1500 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Puerto Vallarta usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Finca 18 Puerto Vallarta Tequila Tour + Chocolate Pairing take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Puerto Vallarta is not rushed.

    Is Finca 18 Puerto Vallarta Tequila Tour + Chocolate Pairing worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 444 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Puerto Vallarta, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Finca 18 Puerto Vallarta Tequila Tour + Chocolate Pairing?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Finca 18 Puerto Vallarta Tequila Tour + Chocolate Pairing suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Finca 18 Puerto Vallarta Tequila Tour + Chocolate Pairing?

    +

    Around 155 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Puerto Vallarta can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Puerto Vallarta and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Finca 18 Puerto Vallarta Tequila Tour + Chocolate Pairing start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Puerto Vallarta within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Puerto Vallarta?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Puerto Vallarta experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Winner 2026 Downtown Vallarta Food Tour with Vallarta Food Tours, Signature Taco Tour in PV with Vallarta Eats, Food & Mixology Tour:Tequila,Tacos, Mezcal and Agave Cocktails. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Puerto Vallarta?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Puerto Vallarta?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
