Great time in The Valley of Guadalupe! - The tour was very well organized. Mario was a great guide and all the arrangements were perfect. The uniqueness of each winery was captivating. The food at every restaurant was also exceptional. Would highly recommend Baja California Wind Tours!

Amazing weekend - Best trip ever! Mario is knowledgeable, smart and connected. He knows all the best places to go, and it was clear he is well respected by the locals. There is no way we would have known about all the amazing places we went without his connections and planning. We all felt safe and had the best time!

10/10 Beautiful, Informative (and delicious!) Tour to Baja Wine Country - 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.

Best Baja Tour! - If you are looking for a way to experience the amazing food and wine of Baja California while making unforgettable memories, I can't recommend Baja California Wine Tours enough! I have done two tours with Mario, and both were absolutely incredible. Mario knows so much about Baja California and has such a warm way of sharing it. I felt completely at ease and just enjoyed the moment.
Our tour started in Puerto Nuevo, where the views were beautiful. From there we went to El Valle de Guadalupe and we visited two wineries including Baron Balche. I will never forget the fresh tuna and the best clam chowder I have ever had, it was seriously next level. I have never been much of a wine person but the wine I tasted here completely changed my mind.
What made it even more special was how much Mario genuinely loves what he does. You can feel his passion for Baja California in every part of the tour, from the stories he shares to the little details he points out during the tour. It is an experience I will never forget, and I already cannot wait to go back. If you are planning a trip to Baja, this is an absolute must do! :)

Exceptional Wine Tour in Baja - Rene our amazing driver and guide picked us up at the Old Town Transit Center and we sped off over the border. Rene was an exceptional driver/guide, taking us to 3 wineries for tastings, and to Finca Altozano for lunch. I highly recommend this company and Rene as a guide, everything went smoothly, and we had a great time at each winery. We hope to do another tour when we have family/friends in San Diego. It's a great day out with great food, interesting wines, and great guide!

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.
