We went to “la bota event” - The trip was amazing! lots of fun. Mario and Rene were very professional, cordial and respectful. El evento de la bota is once a year and the music and food wa great! Montefiori hotel was clean and quaint and we even went yo El Encanto restaurant with a view to the ocean and live music with folclórico dance. I highly recommend Baja California Wine Tours

Great Tour - The tour was excellent and the our guide Mario was fantastic. We toured a small sample of the numerious vineyards and wineries of the region in one day. If your really into wines I would recommend a longer stay because there are so many wineries to sample and it should'nt be done in one day. If your a wine aficionado or student there of this place will be remnesant of Napa size with Temecula Valley weather and geography. Our guides choice of wineries and dinning establishments was catered to our palets. I would highly recomend this tour group to all that want a great wine experience.

Best way to see the Valle! - My 2nd time taking this tour and will definitely do it again. The transportation, pick up and drop off is so convenient. The wineries themselves are gorgeous and modern - and the wine is great! Mario has been our guide both times and has so much knowledge of the Valle and the different properties! Lunch at Finca is delicious! The ease of the private tour is the best way to experience the Valle!

The most beautiful Gastrobar in the world - Mario is one of the most pleasant, knowledgeable, smart, eloquent speaker, and extremely professional tour guide. I dont like like when a guide speaks too much. But Mario is someone that captivates the audience. All his choices of vineyards were amazing and we will never forget Bar.Baru. To me is one of the most beautiful restaurants, Gastrobars in the world. The food and wines were the best. This was my third time going in I will repeat it again and will bring all my international friends to see such beautiful sites to meet Mario. Thank you so much for having such a great initiative and your organization rocks. Gina Ing

Bachelorette Trip - 10 of us went on this wine tour with Mario for a bachelorette trip. We had SO much fun, would definitely recommend! The views at the wineries were so beautiful, and Mario made sure to pick upbeat, fun places per our request. We really enjoyed the lunch at finca, and went to frida as a last stop for some tequila and dancing. We felt very safe and had an unforgettable trip!

The Joys of the Valle of Guadalupe with Mario! 😃 - What a beautiful breezy day wine tasting with Mario, our driver and guide. We visited Hilo Negro, Decantos & Casa Magoni, all delightful wineries. 🍷 A hassle free way to visit the “Napa Valley of Mexico”. Mario picked us up in San Diego, drove us across the border along the coast of Baja California and meandered through the vineyards of the Valle de Guadalupe. We had lunch at Finca Altozano, from the acclaimed chef Javier Plascencia. Mario was engaging, knowledgeable and made sure we all had an enjoyable time. We will definitely come back! You will be cheerfully surprised! 😍

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!
