El Castillo de Tequila Tour – A Private Tequila Tour with No Crowds, Just You

If you’re looking for a tequila experience that goes beyond the usual group tour, the El Castillo de Tequila Tour is for you. This is a completely private tour—from the transportation to every distillery visit. That means no strangers, no shared vans, and no fixed group schedules. Just you, your group, and your dedicated bilingual guide, Cata, for the entire day.

You’ll visit a stunning tequila castle in the town of Arenal, get hands-on with small-batch production, enjoy tastings in peaceful settings, and then head into Tequila for another iconic stop at José Cuervo. With built-in flexibility, comfortable travel, and local insight, this tour is designed to give you a more personal and high-quality experience in Jalisco’s agave country.

¿En Qué Consiste el Tour?

• Private Transportation from Guadalajara: You’ll be picked up directly at your hotel or Airbnb in a private, air-conditioned vehicle. No shared rides—just your group and your personal guide, Cata, for the entire day.
• Tour El Castillo de Tequila: This unique estate, built to look like a castle, is run by the Gallardo family and sits surrounded by agave fields. You’ll get a guided walkthrough of the property, learn about their traditional production methods, and enjoy a relaxed tasting of their handcrafted tequilas.
• Visit to José Cuervo Distillery: In the town of Tequila, you’ll take a guided tour of one of the world’s most famous tequila brands. Learn the history, explore the facility, and sample another flight of tequila in a very different setting.
• Tiempo libre en Tequila: After your distillery visits, you’ll have time to explore the town at your own pace. You can eat lunch, visit a museum, shop local goods, or just enjoy the atmosphere. Your guide will offer suggestions, but the time is yours.
• Parada en Cantaritos El Güero: On the return to Guadalajara, we’ll stop at this popular roadside spot for a large, freshly made cantarito cocktail—made with tequila, citrus juices, soda, and served in a clay cup. A great way to finish the day.
• Private Ride Back to Guadalajara: Your vehicle is waiting whenever you’re ready. Relax and reflect on the day during the ride back to your accommodations.
