The museum is child-friendly and provides an opportunity to sample six distinct types of tequila at a reduced cost (note that tequila samples are not included in the tour price). Beneath the museum, guests can explore the opal mine jewelry store, which boasts an extensive collection of opals and various other minerals.

Fun unique experience great guide ask for Anna - I booked this tour in a replica Model T through Viator. When we got off the ship neither my husband nor I could get service on the phone so we couldn't double check where to meet. Someone who worked for a company kindly showed us where we had go, which was about 1/2 mile away from the ship. We still couldn't get service there to show our tickets but Anna had us on her list so it was no problem. We enjoyed going to the beach and other sites and saw where the margarita was created. Anna spoke good English. She had interesting things to say. She was willing to customize the tour if there was anything we had in mind. We kept it as is. There is a top to the car so if it's raining you're OK. We took this in February and the weather was perfect. I would imagine in July it might be a little warm so think about taking a bottle of water with you.

Great time! - Rafael was very nice and accommodating with us and my mother’s foldable walker. His English was good and we never felt rushed. Nice excursion, I would recommend it to anyone that wants an overview of Ensenada with little walking.

If you want the best Mango margaritas, Rafael knows. - Our driver Rafael did an outstanding job of explaining the history of Ensenada. The highlight of the tour was the stop at the Rivera de Ensenada where I had the best Mango margaritas I have ever had.

A perfect day in Ensanada! - Go on this tour! Rafael is an excellent tour guide. He took us to a number of interesting spots, and was very informative with facts and stories about Ensanada and the stops along the way. We enjoy views of the beach, margaritas, wine, mezcal and the best street tacos we've ever eaten. It was such a lovely day and I would 100% recommend Rafael and this lovely tour. Thank you for the most enjoyable day and memories.

Unique experience and enjoyable afternoon! - This was a cruise port stop and I had to find something that my husband (who has Aphasia) could enjoy. This was a perfect choice. We were picked up at the Corona Hotel, as requested, before heading to the beach for a photo stop; then onto the Alter where a beautiful wedding was about to take place on the lawn. If you stop, be sure to get a Margarita Mango...the best. After this stop we requested fish tacos. Now that's what a fish taco is suppose to taste like - absolutely delicious. Yes, it was from a sparkling clean food truck...and not walkable from the ship, but simply amazing. Our tour guide was so genuine and helpful, which made for a lovely afternoon ride. No request was too much to ask...thank you!!!

Good time and ver informative - Good tour guide was very accommodating. He took pictures and was willing to wait for us to get a drink or ride horses. We didn’t do the horses because it was a cloudy day but was a nice time anyway. The guide was on time and picked us up close to the cruise pier.

A very enjoyable experience - We did this tour at the start of October. Rafael confirmed a couple of days before confirming where the pick up was and timings - which was good. Easy to find the tour. We were 2 in a bigger party of 6 - so 3 cars came along and went in convoy. We stopped at regular intervals either to hear a bit of history from Rafael or to see some sights. We stopped off for a Margherita around town - which was nice. Very well organised and much enjoyed.

Model T Tour - The car was fun, but the actual tour was lacking. Only went to 4 sites and there was little to no commentary while driving.
