ATV Ensenada Wine and Tequila Museum tour.

My wife and I booked a last minute Atv and wine tour. The suggested place was sold out so we went with ATV Ensenada. We are glad we did because not only was it less expensive, it was also a great experience. We were within the 5 mile radius so Emilio offered to pick us up and drop us from our AirBnB. Once we arrive at the shop our tour guide Carlos made sure we had the proper information and after he provided the protective gear (helmet and goggles) he went through the ATV controls and made sure we understood everything before taking off. The Offroad ATV was fun and it was maybe a full 10-15 minutes of trails before we arrived at the ranch for Wine and cheese(not included.) the price was reasonable and after some time we rode back into town for the wine museum tour. We opted for the tequila and margarita tasting( not included) and we had a great time learning about the process and regulations of tequila. After the museum my wife and I were hungry so Carlos agreed to stop by a local spot for fish and shrimp tacos. We have done other ATV experiences and they have always felt rushed. The tour guides wanted to run through and get to the next location without letting us soak it all in. Carlos and ATV Ensenada were the complete opposite of that. They allowed plenty of time and even allowed us to stay a bit longer and head out when we were ready. If you're looking for an amazing experience with professional and caring service then ATV is what you're looking for. Emilio and Carlos are the best! Keep up the amazing service. We look forward to booking our next service with you guys!

Recently went to Ensenada and wanted to do an ATV tour. The cruise line we were on had one with less-than-great reviews so we took a chance and went with ATV Ensenada and I'm so happy we did. A Venmo deposit upon booking is required so I messaged the company via WhatsApp and got an immediate response. We were paired with Homer for the mountain ATV tour and my bf and I were the only ones that signed up. Felt like we got a private tour! Homer is a FANTASTIC tour guide. Super easy to follow, always felt safe on and off the ATV and gave us great recommendations. Be sure to wear lots of sunscreen and wear clothes you're cool getting a bit dirty/dusty. Highly recommend ATV Ensenada.

This past weekend we had the pleasure to rent a razor for my family of four. Emilio did the booking for us over the phone the week before. Great customer service. He personally picked us up from the Ensenada port and drove us to the shop to get the razor. My two little ones, 4 & 6 year olds, had a fun time on the razor. Once at the shop Enrique was our tour guide. He guided us to the mountain tour with another couple. Enrique made some stops to make sure we were ok and took some pictures. Great guy! Once back from our tour they provided a quick clean up, bottled water and a drive back to either the port or a place to go eat. They dropped us off at a taco restaurant. It was a great experience and pleasure doing business with ATV Ensenada.

ATV riding on the dirt trails - part of the ATV and horsebacking riding tour.

My latest adventure with ATV Ensenada was really enjoyable.I don't take travel planning lightly and always do a ton of research ahead. I was impressed by all the positive reviews for ATV Ensenada so I reached out to the company's owner Emilio. Within minutes, he wrote back and confirmed the trip. Talk about great service! ATV Ensenada offers a variety of tour options including ATV rides to La Bufadora (a very cool blow hole worth checking out), hot springs, wine country as well as an ATV and ziplining combo tour. But the one tour that stood out most to us was the ATV and horseback riding tour, which also included a stop at a Tequila tasting room. Tequila, ATV's and horseback riding might not sound like a natural combination, but it really all seemed to fit -- especially after a sixth shot of Tequila. Just saying! Emilio grew up in Oregon, and spoke perfect English. And for the past 20 years, he has lived in Ensenada. We found it fascinating to hear his perspective -- especially after living in both the United States and Mexico. There has been so much change in Ensenada, and tourism hasn't been affected as much as in some of the other towns since many of Ensenada's tourists arrive by cruise ships. Emilio has been riding ATVs since he was a kid, and decided to break out with a company of his own about 2 years ago. While there are several tour operators to choose from in Ensenada, I booked with Emilio given his experience and just the sheer variety of tours I could pick from. Plus, a tour is really only as good as it's guide. The shop is located in the middle of town and there is plenty of easy street parking. It's also perfect if you're planning to do some ATV riding and not just arriving by ship.

Wow! Such a fun trip. We were nervous booking online and sending Venmo deposit. But, this company is so honest. I ended up overpaying without realizing it. They sent me a Venmo refund while we were still on our excursion. They did have to change things when we got there. We booked the atv/zip-line adventure. We did not realize we'd be driving atvs for an hour on city roads and highways. Not sure we'd do that again, but it was a great way to experience the real, local Ensenada. We were expecting our kids ages 14 & 12 to drive, but because we were driving city roads and highways and so far, they didn't feel it was safe for them. They were right. We were glad. Also, payment there is either cash or credit card and I believe they charged 8% fees. The zip-line park was absolutely incredible. We loved that adventure! Our guides were incredible. Easy to follow. Very accommodating and friendly. They brought us by a taco place after. And dropped us at the shopping street right in front of a store they recommended. I would definitely book an excursion with them again! We were in good hands. I don't know we'd want to drive that far again to go zip-lining. But it was such a fun adventure and great experience.

Emilio and Enrique are amazing! While searching on the web for the best Ensenada ATV tour, we came across Emilio's tour. We wanted to ATV in the mountains, the beach, and get tacos as well. Emilio gave us a customized tour with a fantastic rate. He met us at the black bridge when we got off our cruise and shuttled us to his shop. There, we met Enrique who was a fantastic tour guide and took us through the city and hills of Ensenada then down to the playa and ended the tour with tacos before taking us back to their shop. Enrique is very professional and really knows what he is doing. If any of us got stuck he knew how to get us unstuck quickly and efficiently. Emilio showed us how to use the ATVs before riding. Instruction was very simple and if you don't know how to ride, you will learn very quickly. It is not difficult. The ATVs Emilio has to offer are very nice as well. They were nicer than some ATVs I rode in Pismo Beach. Emilio and Enrique put my ATV in automatic so I didn't even have to shift gears. He also has full face helmets and goggles. Enrique and Emilio also took many photos of us whenever we wanted. They were extremely accommodating and the service was 100% After our tour, they even dropped us off to wherever we wanted to go (for example they would take you back to the ship) but we chose to go to papas and beers after! HIGHLY recommend this place. Emilio knows what he is doing and he is super hospitable towards his guests. I can't wait to come back and take all of my amigos here!! -------------------------------------------- En español: Emilio y Enrique son increíbles! Mientras buscaba en la web el mejor tour en cuatrimoto de Ensenada, nos encontramos con la gira de Emilio. Queríamos ATV en las montañas, en la playa y obtener tacos también. Emilio nos dio un recorrido personalizado con una tarifa fantástica. Se encontró con nosotros en el puente negro cuando salimos de nuestro crucero y nos llevó a su tienda. Allí, conocimos a Enrique, que era un fantástico guía turístico y nos llevó a través de la ciudad y las colinas de Ensenada, luego a la playa y terminó la gira con tacos antes de llevarnos de vuelta a su tienda. Enrique es muy profesional y realmente sabe lo que hace. Si alguno de nosotros se quedara atascado, él sabía cómo hacer que nos despegáramos de manera rápida y eficiente. Emilio nos mostró cómo usar los ATV antes de montar. La instrucción fue muy simple y si no sabes cómo montar, aprenderás muy rápido. No es difícil. Los ATV que Emilio tiene para ofrecer son muy buenos también. Eran más agradables que algunos ATV que monté en Pismo Beach. Emilio y Enrique pusieron mi ATV en automático, así que ni siquiera tuve que cambiar de marcha. Él también tiene cascos y gafas de cara completa. Enrique y Emilio también tomaron muchas fotos de nosotros cada vez que quisimos. Fueron extremadamente serviciales y el servicio fue 100% Después de nuestra gira, incluso nos dejaron donde quisiéramos ir (por ejemplo, lo llevarían de vuelta al barco) pero decidimos ir a papas y cervezas después. Recomiendo encarecidamente este lugar. Emilio sabe lo que hace y es muy hospitalario con sus invitados. ¡No puedo esperar para volver y llevar a todos mis amigos aquí!

What an awesome experience! I am so glad we decided to go with ATV Ensenada; we had such a great time! Emilio was such a pleasure and very helpful throughout our entire experience. I called him to book my party of 3 and he returned my call almost immediately. We communicated via text and email. I had a few questions come up and he was quick to respond. We decide to do the Hot Springs Tour and arrived at the shop at 9:30 a.m. and checked in. We left the shop at about 10 a.m. and returned around 3:00 p.m. since we stopped at a Taco stand. Our tour guides were friendly and made sure we were safe and comfortable. They even took a few photos of us. I can't remember exactly how many miles we rode, but I want to say it was a little over 20 miles. I didn't want to stop riding!! We went through the city and out through the mountains. The mountain trail was safe and long; however, it's probably the best part! At one point we even went through water. Super fun! A few tips: I would recommend that you bring a small backpack with water and snacks if you plan to ride up there. We stayed at the Hot Springs for about an hour and hung out. Don't forget to bring a bandana as it can get dusty from all the dirt and your bathing suit if you decide to cool off in the springs and pool. Also, they do charge $8 (US) per person to enter the Hot Springs. We will definitely be back to do another ATV tour with ATV Ensenada soon!

Micheladas before meeting up with Emilio

I was skeptical at first with doing my adventure in Ensenada Mexico through here, but honestly it turned out to be a memorial and fun experience. This was my second time out to Mexico but first time booking with Emilio and ATV Ensenada. Emilio was very professional, respectful and easy to communicate with. I would definitely book with them again if I come back to Ensenada, and recommend this adventure to new or old travelers of Ensenada. Just to share a little hiccup in our trip. There was a change made by carnival cruise which changed our date for landing in Ensenada to a day earlier. Before I could even contact Emilio, he was all over it and informed me he was aware of the change and would meet me and my group the day we land with no change or additional deposit. Our guide, Enrique, that took us to the blowhole after the ATV ride was awesome. Catered to anything we asked of him. Knew the spots for new and wild adventures and good food. Even went out of his way to secure us a place to sit and eat. Hard to do in a group of ten but he was on it! Hope this helps you in exploring something exciting to do. I have attached a few pictures to share our moments.

The group

This was our favorite excursion of the weekend! Our guide took us through a scenic route in town, stopped at their favorite winery, tasted good tequila, and ate delicious tacos! Thank you guys for making my bachelorette so fun and memorable! Will definitely do it again the next time I visit ensenada!

Beautiful ride

4/9/2019 I booked this tour purely on the great reviews. It was totally worth it. My daughter and I wanted something fun and all the cruise ship excursions were sold out, I'm so happy I found Emilio's company. I sent an email and booked easily. We met at the black bridge, it was easy to spot when you leave the ship. We walked a couple blocks to the store and were fitted with helmets and goggles. We traveled surface streets and dirt roads for an hour ride to the Hot Springs. Enrique was our guide. He was great at signaling where to stop at (Alto) stop signs. The same road rules apply, but I did notice the locals were very patient with the Atv's. We had an hour at the hot springs and it was so nice to wash the dust off and relax in the hot water, there is a creek next to it and families camping near by. I could have stayed there all day. I was almost to relaxed to Atv back, but we were starving so Enrique took us to a great taco shop for tacos. For your comfort dress in long pants/jeans it gets a little cold on the way back. Close toe shoes and long sleeve shirt. We also brought bandanna or tube dust mask that help from eating dust when riding. We also brought water and soda in our backpack. The one thing I forgot was toilet paper. There was no toilet paper at the hot springs public bathroom. We were a little sore the next day, well a lot sore for me. I'm out of shape, but a massage on the ship helped. I want to go back, minus the cruise so I can spend more time out there.i

We had the best time on our ATV adventure. My family (me, wife, two kids ages 11 and 8) booked this tour to the hot springs a few weeks prior to our carnival cruise. This tour was the most fun day of our vacation. I wasn't sure how my kids would do on an ATV but they had the time of their life and each of them were able to drive the ATV once we got off the city roads. Homer was our guide and he was great. We stopped for tacos afterwards. I wish I'd gotten a shrimp taco - they looked so good. I paid $310 for the ATV tour, ~$50 to use the hot water springs and a 20% gratuity. We made great memories

Look at that view!!

We added on a wine tour in the valley too. Ivan our driver, a native of the valley, was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the valley, even providing excellent restaurant recommendations. The whole experience made us feel safe and secure, we would gladly travel with them again. They even suggested and helped us get a fast pass for border crossing that saved us 3 hours in crossing the border. Great team and service.

My friends and I weren't too sure of how the process would be since they picked us up after we walked across the border. We booked our rides through WhatsApp and the communication was super easy. They were super responsive, and the day before our designated rides, they shared the driver's number for us to connect directly. Our driver down to Valle was named Elias and made the whole process so simple! He picked us right outside of where we came out after crossing the border. He was super friendly and wanted to make sure we were comfortable for the drive. He told us a little bit about Valle and how he's lived there for 25 years. On my way back, I had a different driver, who was Natalie. She was super nice and the ride back was so quick, probably because it was the morning and traffic wasn't too bad in Tijuana yet. She was helpful in directing me to find the line to cross the border. Without the direction from her, I would have definitely been confused. They made this whole process so seamless! They were on time and available for all the questions I had leading up to the rides as well. I will for sure use them in the future any time I'm traveling somewhere driving distance in Mexico!

We received a recommendation for Alex for a winery tour from the front desk attendant at the San…read moreNicolas Hotel and Casino. After talking to Alex we agreed upon a price of $110 for both of us for visiting 4 vineyards in the Guadalupe Valley. He told us he would pick us up in his cab the following morning at 10 am and we would be back around 3 pm. Alex arrived a bit early and easily agreed to stop at a breakfast burrito food cart he knew about. These burritos were fresh and hot. Alex knows a lot of the locals and has a lot of jokes and stories to tell. We really enjoyed his tour. He told us he also offered deep sea and local fishing, and ATV excursions. He drove us to Don Victor Manuel Vinos Artesanales in the Guadalupe Valley first. Here we sampled lots of varieties of liqueurs, grappa and some wines. This place was packed with two tour buses. While the tourists were being served, Alex told us about Don Victor and even helped the staff pour out samples. We ended up buying a couple of bottles of liqueur and one bottle of almond grappa here. Don Victor even let us fly the drone over the vineyard. Next, we headed to La Sol y Barro. This small, local vineyard is owned by Aime Desponds, a relocated, retired man from Switzerland. This was our favorite winery, and we bought a bottle of his 2017 Graciano red wine. His paintings decorate the inside of his tasting room, and he told us he built all the buildings on his property using Cob, which resembles adobe. Third, we headed to La Casa De Dona Lupe. This was a large winery, with a restaurant, outdoor and indoor seating, and lots of bottled goodies for sale. We bought a gift basket here, a 2013 Nebbiolo red wine and a 2015 Tempranillo. Dona Lupe is in her nineties and in good health and lives on the property. However, we didn't get to see her on the day we visited. On the way to our fourth winery, we passed some olive fields. We asked to stop and buy some olives. Alex took us to s stand along the road and we bought a huge plastic jar of olives, a bottle of olive oil and some hard-boiled quail eggs in a glass jar. Our last winery was by far the fanciest. Alex told us he would wait for us inside the cab. It was called Decantos Vinicolas and had a full-service kitchen and multiple varieties of wine. They had indoor seating and many outdoor picnic tables. This winery let us fly the drone (see photos). By far, this winery had the most people and many of them were eating as well. They charged for their wine tasting and we ended up buying a bottle of the 2020 Cabernet Franc. We felt bad because we ended up arriving back at our hotel at around 4 pm. Alex didn't complain and I ended up tipping him for this extra hour. If you want a great tour guide that gives you his absolute most, then I would recommend booking Alex. Since he can be hard to get ahold of, please call him at 646-107-2073. He'll treat you right.

I went on Viator and saw a shore excursion called "Ensenada City Highlights Tour with Local Guide…read moreand Food Options." I connected with Alex through Facebook Messenger and inquired about availability for this tour on the day of our cruise. After a few back & forth (and asking for a different way to communicate as I would not have internet off ship which I never received) I made a reservation directly with Alex for me, my husband and another couple I thought we were getting a narrated tour of the city. On the day of the tour I heard Alex say something about La Bufadora (which I did not request) so I reminded him we wanted to see the city. He said he would tell the driver to take us after the blow hole. We were put in a mini-van taxi that had no air conditioning. We had to open the windows and the fumes from other vehicles were horrible. The taxi rattled with every bump and on the way back hit something that made a loud noise. I thought we had a blowout but thankfully not. There were 2 maintenance lights lit up on the dashboard. We received very little narration and after seeing the blow hole the other couple decided that they did not want to go into the city because the fumes were getting to them. I'm sure we would not have received the narration that was described on Viator. Lesson learned - book through Viator so there is some recourse if something goes wrong.
