Review of Finca 18 near Puerto Vallarta, with an agave tour, five-plus spirit tastings, chocolate pairing, ranch setting, and practical tips.

“What an amazing tour. It was really intimate and informative. The whole service was incredible. The pick up shuttle from the airport was really simple and you get to see the Mexican community as you drive to the ranch. Upon arrival, the cocktails are delicious then the team take you on a tour of the ranch. Learn about the history of the ranch, see the agave plants then the cooking pits and finally learn about the distillation process. Taste a range of agave spirits with delicious pallet cleansing snacks and we would definitely recommend the upgrade to the local chocolates. They are cheap and really enhance the experience.

Learn how Puerto Vallarta’s Connoisseur Tequila Tasting compares four spirits, explains Jalisco’s tequila trade, and pairs pours with food.

“This was an awesome experience. Loved the food pairings with the high end tequila. Great location in PV. The presenters were knowledgeable and fun. Unfortunately my very well wrapped body of resposado broke on the last leg of our trip in a hard case suitcase thanks to movement by customs and harsh treatment by baggage handlers - next time I will bring a box. Also pay pal made a mistake and sent me a text saying my account had been charged in dollars - Corrina was very quick to communicate with me and put my fears to rest. I would highly recommend this - this isn't your commercial tequila and…”

Review of Puerto Vallarta’s affordable butterfly, city, tequila, and beach tour, with practical advice on stops, timing, transport, and value.

“Our day was not typical, I'm sure. It began with some confusion with pick up location and then timing. My information said to meet a near by hotel, the contact/tour guide was looking for us at the cruise port. Causing a 30 min delay. I believe the guide would benefit from a flag to carry in crowded areas (city is crowded) because she is under- tall and difficult to spot. Her English was difficult for me to understand. It became more important to understand her when the van was stopped in traffic due to protesters and many law enforcement personal carrying automatic weapons. She eventually got the van turned around…”
