Valle de Guadalupe: Fantastic 3 Night Adventure - We had an amazing time during our 3 night adventure in the Valle de Guadalupe. Mario was very patient with me during our planning process to create a fun-filled itinerary that included visits to the Rosario Beach Hotel, Puerto Nuevo, beautiful wineries and restaurants in the Valle, cheese tasting at the Cava de Marcelo, and Cuatro Cuatros. I really appreciated how flexible and accommodating Mario was during our trip. He is so knowledgeable about the area, always sharing interesting tidbits, and very personable. We had a memorable and safe trip to Baja. Thank you Mario!

Wonderful experience wine tasting in Mexico - One of the best wine tasting experiences ever! It was so fun seeing all the wineries and making new friends. My husband booked this tour for my birthday because we wanted to try something other than NAPA. I highly recommend this tour. The nicest part is having your own driver because they are not shy about their pours. The food was delicious and our drivers made us feel safe. Our tour guide was hilarious and knew each winery well.

History and the Wine - Trip coordinator Mario has the perfect touch. He knows a great deal about the history and geography of Baja California, as well as how the history and the climate of the region helped to create the wine industry in Valle de Guadalupe. The history is an important part of the entire experience. We truly appreciated Mario's effort to narrate the important facts, all the while safely driving us through the spectacular scenery of NW Mexico.

A beautiful memorable day - A truly beautiful day of sights, wine, food and fascinating facts shared by our thoughtful guide. He was punctual, knowledgeable and flexible. The wine was excellent and the food amazing. He shared useful tips and restaurant recommendations for the rest our Baja adventure. The restaurant he recommended (and reserved for us) for our dinner after our day with him was out of this world! I highly recommend Mario’s tours.

Excellent Day in Beautiful Mexico!! - We had a wonderful experience from beginning to end with Rene, our driver, and Mario, the owner of the tour company. Both gentlemen did everything they could to make our tour enjoyable. We visited three wineries and a restaurant—all had gorgeous views of the vineyards and the best of what Mexico had to offer. All locations were 100% safe and instead of waiting in a four hour line to get back into the U.S., we were treated to fast pass access and safely returned to our original meeting location, with our driver being so kind as to remain with one of our party until her ride showed up. I can’t wait to schedule our next tour with these gentlemen!
