Visit Tequila, the beautiful town in the state of Jalisco, and walk its charming streets while tasting delicious food at the municipal market. In this tour, you will know the La Fortaleza Distillery through its tour “Los Abuelos” or “Bisabuelo”, where you will observe the process of making tequila and enjoy a tasting included during the experience. In addition, you will visit one of the last artisan tequila factories, Tequila Selecto, which will give you a more authentic and private experience, free of large crowds and rows. The visit to Tequila Selecto is included only in the “Los Abuelos” experience and is not part of the “Bisabuelo” tour. Best of all, you can make the tour your own, as we stop where you want to capture images of the beautiful agavero landscapes or enjoy any other attraction you want. We recommend booking early, as there are few spaces available per shift.

    The Perfect Tequila Day with our Guide Ricardo!

    We had such an AMAZING day with our guide, Ricardo! From start to finish, he was incredibly kind, friendly, professional, and punctual. He took us to the Fortaleza Distillery, showed us around the beautiful pueblo, and made the entire experience so much fun and memorable. To end the day, he took us to Cantaritos El Güero, which was the perfect way to finish an already incredible day! Ricardo truly went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience. We felt comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. If you’re looking for a guide, we HIGHLY recommend Ricardo! We would absolutely book with him again. Thank you, Ricardo, for such an unforgettable day!

    Los Anuelos

    We had an excellent private tour. It was an amazing experience that I’ve been looking forward to for quite a while.

    Wonderful day in Tequila

    Ricardo is a great guide. He picked us up at the hotel and took us to two distilleries in Tequila. He showed us everything and his English is great. He knows everything, has a lot of local merchant contacts, and was very very helpful as we shopped. We enjoyed it so much that we booked him for the next in Guadalajara.

    Perfect Time in Tequila Town!

    Our tour guide was Eduardo/Lalo. He was a great guide! Very informative, took us to the distilleries we wanted (Los Abuelos/Fortaleza which has a beautiful property, cave tasting room, and gave us the full spectrum of tequila making, and one other with a broad assortment of tequilas), had a good meal at The Camel Restaurant (Los Camellos Agave), and drank and partied at Cantaritos to end the day. We did the tour as part of my birthday trip and Lalo was right on point with where he took us. It was a perfect day. If all their guides are like Lalo, I highly recommend!

    Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery cost?

    +

    Prices start at $175 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Guadalajara usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 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 Guadalajara is not rushed.

    Is Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 52 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Guadalajara, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery?

    +

    Around 18 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 Guadalajara 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 Guadalajara and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery 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 Guadalajara 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 Guadalajara?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Guadalajara experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Luxury Tequila Experience: VIP Tastings & Boutique Distilleries, Full Day Tour to Tequila and Amatitán with Fun and Culture, The Fire TOUR - Pyramids, Volcanoes, Agaves & Tequila. 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 Guadalajara?

    +

    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 Guadalajara?

    +

    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.

    What is included in Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; Carbonated beverages; Bottled water; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Lunch; Alcoholic beverages; and souvenirs. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 222 listed pickup locations in and around Guadalajara. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery?

    +

    Is Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap; and Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Private One Day Adventure Tour in Tequila and La Fortaleza Distillery if the weather is bad?
