The travel, tour and tastings are all included on the Tequila Express, a train that transports visitors from Guadalajara through the rolling landscape of agave fields to the Casa Herradura Distillery in the nearby city of Tequila. The family-owned enterprise also offers mariachi entertainment and a buffet lunch.
Recent visitors described their experience as "well-organized" and the tour guides as "fantastic," though one traveler recommended asking about English-speaking guides if you know little Spanish. Another tip: Double-check your booking. Several travelers cautioned that a similar but less popular tequila train tour is offered by Jose Cuervo.
The Tequila Express runs from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. The all-inclusive admission price is 1,200 pesos, the equivalent of about $63. To find out more about the Tequila Express, visit the attraction's website.
