Tequila José Cuervo Tasting Guided Tour from Puerto Vallarta

This guided tour from Puerto Vallarta is dedicated to tequila: where it comes from, how the region produces it and what the town of Tequila is like. It starts with the agave fields and the Tequila volcano and ends with time in the town before you head back to your hotel. The listing notes that the total duration includes travel time.

The first stop is the landscape of agave fields, which are listed as UNESCO World Heritage, and the plant from which the juice for tequila is extracted. From there you visit Casa José Cuervo, described as the oldest distillery in Latin America, and taste some of its finest tequilas.

You also visit the Juan Beckman Gallardo Cultural Center, which displays charro artifacts and historical carriages. Then you get to walk around the town, discover the main plaza and learn about the traditions and stories linked to that historic spot.

The town portion includes time for its shops and for trying local dishes at the Cleofas Mota market. That makes this tour a good pick if you want a mix of culture, history and tasting without planning the route yourself.

The tour is suitable for all fitness levels. Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller, though infants must sit on an adult’s lap, and service animals are allowed. The operator says its vehicles are not equipped to carry a wheelchair on board, although the tour itself is accessible for wheelchair users, so ask about this before booking. Bottled water, an air-conditioned vehicle and a guide are included; brunch is not. The listing gives no meeting point.
