We had the BEST tour of Valle de Guadalupe and Baja with our guide, Mario. Our group loved the informative (and scenic!) drive down to the Valle.
We did the day tour and stopped at 3 wineries (Baron Balche, Decantos, and Casa Magoni). We also had an INCREDIBLE lunch at Finca Altozano. Each stop was unique, we received great service from everyone, and we all loved the wines we got to taste. The different scenery and views from each winery and stop along the way were beautiful...plus, we loved all the winery 'dogs' that came by to say hello. We had plenty of wine, with opportunities to order other drinks and snacks if anyone wanted to.
We got to tour a wine cellar, learn about the winemaking process, and learn about the history of the region, plus the wineries in the area... we found out there are over 180 wineries in Valle de Guadalupe! The wines we had at each winery were delicious, plus the cheeseboard and lunch we had were so yummy, fresh, and either made locally or tied in with the local offerings. Our lunch at Finca Altozano was crafted by a Michelin-star chef - and we could tell. The menu was amazing, consisting of fresh, handmade bread and tortillas, salsas, butter, roasted brussel sprouts, octopus, and lamb birria.
It was so convenient having a designated driver who knew the area and made crossing the border easy. We felt completely safe and taken care of the entire time. 10/10 would go back on another tour to Valle - next time we would love to spend a few nights! Plus, our guide Mario, offers other tours around MX.
Thank you so much for the beautiful day, Baja California Wine Tours.
