La Fortaleza Tequila: Private Full-Day Tour

Enjoy an unparalleled private experience and discover the secrets behind the tequila industry: from the key differences between industrial and artisanal production, to the political and environmental challenges currently faced by the industry. Designed as an alternative to traditional, touristy tequila tours, this private experience includes transportation exclusively for your group and a dedicated guide, Diego, a licensed tour guide and tequila enthusiast, delivering a personalized experience shaped around your interests. By the end of the tour you'll walk away with a deeper understanding of both the historical and current context of Mexico’s most iconic spirit. This tour is subject to availability: upon receiving your reservation request, I'll contact the distilleries to confirm availability for your chosen date. If available, your reservation will be confirmed. Otherwise, I will notify you with alternative dates in less than 24 hours.

First, we'll visit the distillery of Tequila Selecto. Through a fully-immersive experience you will see, feel, taste, smell and hear the secrets of tequila production. A free tasting of unlimited tequila samples and a private tour of the distillery is included. Then, we will visit La Fortaleza, considered the finest distillery and home to the top-ranked tequila. You'll explore the 19th-century facility and witness the traditional tequila-making process. Of course, no visit would be complete without a guided tasting of their four distinct tequila styles: blanco, still strength, reposado and añejo. Next, we’ll explore the charming town of Tequila. We’ll sample the region’s culinary delights—either at the local market or one of the town’s restaurants. To top it all off, we’ll wrap up the day at the famous Cantaritos bar—a must-see on the Tequila Route. Known for its giant cocktails and vibrant atmosphere, where we’ll drink and enjoy regional music at one of the liveliest venues in Mexico.
