This private, guided day trip includes a tour and tasting at the legendary El Tequileño Distillery (NOM 1108), free time in the Pueblo Mágico of Tequila, a stop at the world-famous La Capilla cantina—the birthplace of the Batanga—and a celebratory visit to Cantaritos El Güero. If you’re a tequila lover looking for an authentic and meaningful experience away from the tourist traps, this is the tour for you.
