Best tour ever! - Mario was awesome. He picked us up right on time and was so helpful. He pointed out spots along the way and knew a lot of history! This was the best tour I have ever been on. Great wineries, and the food was amazing. He sat with us at lunch, helped order and helped us with any and all questions. He was so intelligent, welcoming, friendly and kind. Crossing back from Mexico was super easy! I felt entirely safe and taken care of. I would recommend this tour and plan to do it again myself. So fun and so worth it! Don’t miss out!

The tour to take in Guadalupe - Of all the wine tour options, I'm glad we picked this one. Mario was awesome. He picked me and my four friends up at our hotel and curated a great day for us. We had a private tour which was great. Mario knows so much about the area, its history, and the wines and he has plenty of stories to tell. The tour was relaxed and informative, lunch was amazing. Mario took many photos during the day that he shared with us. We were already in Guadalupe and so I can't comment on how things worked going back and forth from San Diego but I would have full confidence that Mario would have had that squared away

Valle de Guadalupe Tour - I did the private Valle de Guadalupe wine tour for my 40th birthday with some friends and had a great time! Mario is a safe driver, he kept us on schedule for each stop, and gave us a nice overview of the region. The wineries were beautiful and the wine was good. Lunch was tasty and they were able to accommodate one of my vegan friends, which was helpful. Mario took photos and videos of our group, which was a huge added perk! We felt safe driving through Baja and the tour was a good value. I highly recommend it!

So fun, safe, and delicious - For the Private Guadalupe Valley tour, our guide Mario picked our crew of 7 up at our hotel in downtown San Diego. He was at the hotel early, which was great. The border crossing into Tijuana was easy, since we had a guide and driver. To be more comfortable, we switched from a small van to a large Sprinter van after the border crossing. The ride down to our wine tours was pretty along the coast. Mario gave tidbits of info all along the way with respect to the areas and culture. We were assured that we could stop for rest room breaks as often as needed. Our tour (which is different each time because there are over 100 wineries in the valley) included three beautiful locations and a restaurant that served a incredible family-style meal for our table that included enough vegetarian dishes to meet the needs of our veggie eaters. Although all of the wineries were fantastic and beautiful and the wine good for the wine drinkers, our group decided our fav was the first winery, which we did not purchase wine from at the time. However, Mario has a link on his follow up email, to order online from the locations we visited. We were supposed to observe the wine making process, but we did not do this part of the trip. Locations visited: Clos de Tres Cantos, Vinos Marlott, and Magoni; With our meal at Finca Altozado. All recommended.

Fabulous 2 day Valle Wine Tour - We had an amazing two-day wine tour in Valle de Guadalupe with my family! This was our second tour with Mario, whose deep knowledge of the region’s wineries and restaurants made the experience even more special. The convenience of round-trip pickup and drop-off in San Diego made the trip effortless.
Mario curated a perfect balance of intimate boutique wineries and well-known larger establishments. We especially loved discovering the smaller, hidden-gem wineries that you might not easily find online.
Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we can’t wait for our next Valle adventure!

Best intro to Valle! - This was the perfect intro into Valle de Guadalupe! Mario picks you up in San Diego, explains the process for crossing the border and gets you into Valle to enjoy great wines! Then he explained the process for getting back into San Diego and it was such a great trip!

Bachelorette weekend trip - This was my second time. The wineries and restaurants were amazing. We loved Finca and Oja. Each tasting had delicious wines. The views were beautiful and we took a lot of photos. Mario is very knowledgeable of each place he took us. We appreciated how seamless our transitions between each spot were. I recommend this tour to anyone. Valle is beautiful and traveling with Mario makes it easy!
