Overview

You will walk through living squares, admire monumental parishes and hear stories that reveal the soul of a region proud of its roots.

In Arandas, capital of high-altitude tequila, you will discover artisan distilleries where the blue agave is transformed into one of the most appreciated spirits in the world. Here, guided tastings not only educate the palate, they also awaken the connection with the work of generations. Added to the agave landscapes and jaliscien hospitality, this tour is an authentic and enriching experience that no traveler should miss.
