Last minute plans that totally worked out. From the time I made the call to when we were picked up, it was literally less than an hour which was super impressive. We visited 3 wineries and loved every single one. The wineries were beautiful and the wines were wonderful. The day felt relaxed and well paced. Our driver Adrian was fabulous. He was super friendly, a safe driver, and he speaks English fluently which made everything easy and comfortable. Big shout out to Eugenia as well for doing a fantastic job organizing the tour from start to finish. If you are in Ensenada and want a seamless wine route experience without the stress of planning, this is a great option. I would absolutely do this again. read more

My girlfriend and I randomly ended up in Ensenada staying a couple days. We wanted to go to the valle and found Luigi who was super quick to respond and picked us up quick and gave a nice tour. Very knowledgeable and friendly everybody seemed to know him pretty well. For our random unplanned trip went probably better than If we had planned it. I plan on booking this company for a group trip next time. read more

We had a great tour to La Bufadora with Eugenia. She was very friendly and knowledgeable on all topics related to Ensenada during our tour.

We had an amazing experience on our La Bufadora tour. Our tour guide Oscar was beyond amazing. He was friendly and very informative of all the sites we were passing by on the route to La Bufadora. Amazing view of the coast. Once we got to the site, Oscar guided us to the flea Market up to the blow hole. He helped us bargain and communicate with the local vendors. Oscar was very helpful. He was also kind enough to take pictures of our group. They all turned out great. We had a blast. read more

We arrived in Ensenada on a Carnival cruise and met Eugenia for the start of a lovely day. She was a great guide - very professional and knowledgeable and also super friendly. We enjoyed touring the cultural center, a historic landmark, and the home of Bar Andaluz, where the margarita was invented. Next Eugenia drove us to the flea market and gave us a guided tour as we walked to La Bufadora, a marine geyser that regularly shoots seawater up to 100 feet in the air from a submerged cave. The view was stunning! We had a delicious lunch overlooking the Pacific Ocean and then returned to the ship. Five star review from us for Eugenia and the Wine Route. read more

What a wonderful wine tour. We had a great time exploring Valle de Guadalupe. The wineries were fantastic and the food was first class. Eugenia was such a knowledgeable guide and really personalized the tour just for us. The gift bags and waters really showed how much she cared about us. I would and have recommended The Wine Tour to my friends who were thinking about visiting Ensenada. Because I could reserve my tour online, all I had to do when I checked in my hotel was meet Eugenia outside on my scheduled time for a fun day! read more

Absolutely loved our time with the Wine Route! We ended up using this tour company for two days, day 1 was a private tour, and day 2 was with a big group. I couldn't have asked for a better wine tour experience in Guadalupe! Their tour guides speak both English and Spanish so you can select your preference when booking. Luigi and Eugenia are absolutely wonderful, very knowledgeable about the area, and so fun the spend the day with! They were even able to set us up with a driver to pick us up from the border and take us to our hotel in Guadalupe. HIGHLY recommend this tour company; I definitely plan on using them again! read more

I cannot say ENOUGH good things about this tour company! I just booked my 4th tour with them, and will continue to recommend to friends and family. The best part is they can either plan for you, or you collaborate on what experience you'd like/occasion. Ask for Eugenia and Sam as your tour guides! You will not be disappointed. They're also one of the few companies I know of that offers tours to Ojos Negros which was totally worth it. TLDR: use this tour company! read more

Our tour of the Guadalupe Valley wineries was very detailed and excellent. Oscar provided us with refreshments, was knowledgeable and spoke English as well as Spanish to our group. He took us to several small wineries with a variety of offerings and experiences. He took photos and made sure our experience was a delight. We would never have found our way around the dirt roads, closed gates and steep grades to get to all the wineries we experienced. Vina Cava was especially great with its cool interiors and friendly staff. One note of warning, it said the tour was 4 to 5 hours and ended up taking 8. Be prepared for cool interiors as well as warm outdoor spaces. read more

Ojos Negros Valley Wine and Cheese Route Tour in Baja California was INCREDIBLE. Our tour guide, Jorge, was a pleasure and the drive to Ojos Negros was so enjoyable as we shared stories from either side of the border. Jorge's love for Ensenada was evident and touring this breathtaking area of Mexico was all the better for seeing it through the eyes of Jorge. The wineries were opulent - we adored the tour of La Cava de Marcelo. We are true wine fans and loved seeing each part of the process and learning about the care and rearing of the cows on the farm. Another standout was Aleyha Granja de Lavanda - this little vineyard was a slice of heaven with exceptional staff. I couldn't have dreamed for a more relaxing, exceptional meal. Thank you Jorge for making our first day in Ensenada so memorable. Thank you wine & cheese route - this trip was unforgettable. read more

AMAZING experience! We had a slight setback on the way to the Valle but Eugenia went above and beyond to make sure we still had a great time! Eugenia is kind, professional, and extremely knowledgable about the Valle and wine in general. She picks the most beautiful, interesting, and delicious wineries in the Valle. She takes photos for you which she sends to you at the end of the tour. We had thought about driving ourselves, but definitely don't - it is well worth it to have a knowledgable guide to show you the way (not to mention drive you around after a few heavy pours). And don't get suckered into one of those other tours with wine/food already included, they are overpriced - it is nearly impossible to spend more than $20/pp at each winery, for the most expensive tasting option. Could not recommend any more highly, you are in great hands with Luigi and Eugenia! read more

Our Airbnb host recommended the wine route for a great time going to Valle de Guadalupe! Eugenia and Luigi were amazing people who truly knows their way around valle de Guadalupe and the best wineries! They picked us up at our Airbnb checked our temperatures and always provided us hand sanitizer! They gave us a bag to put our wines, snacks, and a face mask. They followed the covid 19 protocols and always made sure we stayed hydrated and offered us water. We went to 4 different wineries and were very understanding and willing to change the route when we wanted to go to our favorite winery Xecue. Eugenia took pictures of us all day and sent them to us at the end of the day ! Truly a great experience! We will see definitely be booking with them again ! read more

We met our guide punctually at the front of the cultural center. There were just 4 of us in the mini van which was perfect. We did not want a big tour bus from the ship. We went to the blow hole and it was interesting to see. Probably wouldn't do it again but last time we did the wine tasting in the countryside so wanted to try something else. The guide Cerchio (sorry for spelling) was very nice and helpful the entire time. He recommended a wonderful restaurant during our stop at the blow hole and it was fantastic! Would recommend this tour for sure read more

Amazing trip, start to finish. Our guide, Eugenia, text us the night before to review pick up spot (pictures included). We were on a cruise boat, so we met Eugenia at the Cultural Center, which was a short walk from the ship. It was just me and a friend on the tour, so it felt very personalized and intimate. Eugenia drove us around in a comfortable minivan and we were able to control our own air. From the start of our tour, Eugenia was personable, customized our trip to match our wine preferences, and was kind. She even took pictures of us along the route. We visited 4 wineries, each very different and unique. We loved every winery we visited and even got to drink/hang out with two of the wine makers! We had a charcuterie board at the second winery and lunch at the fourth winery. Eugenia provided water and snacks along the way and gave us a gift (wine glasses) at the end. We learned so much about the Ensenada wine region and the history of wine making there. Six months ago, I booked a wine tour through the ship. There is no comparison. The Viator excursion far exceeded my expectations and the ship excursion. Hands down. I can't wait to book this trip again. I will request Eugenia and visit new wineries, as there are so many wineries in this region! Five stars isn't enough. read more

The tour was amazing! We had a small mishap with our driver, but they found us a replacement and boy was I glad we got Eugenia and Adam. They were amazing the entire time. Took us to amazing wineries. Explained so much about the wine and region and even made an amazing recommendation for dinner. We enjoyed our day to the fullest and can't wait to come back and try other wineries with a Eugenia and Sam. Oh and they took great pics of us. read more

So glad we found The Wine Route as it was an awesome tour. Super communicative! Adrian was the best tour guide with snippets of history of the area and Ensenada. The wineries chosen were exactly what we were looking for and came home with 7 bottles of wine. They also suggested the restaurant, Finco Altozano, which was superb. Must stop. read more

Where do I even start. This tour was DISAPPOINTING. Not what I had expected. You're basically PAYING for someone to drive you around. Nothing is included but the driver a basic T-shirt, snack bag(with crackers, peanuts and water), and that is it. Lunch is not included and it's not even lunch it's like an early dinner. Lunch isn't till 4pm and you don't even get to pick where you want to go, they decide for you. It's an over priced "experience" you can get the same looking for a driver on your own and much more affordable. I would recommend anyone to simply hire a driver who will charge you $100 a day and take you anywhere you want for the WHOLE DAY! Please don't waste your time or money with this company! They are just milking money from tourist. One thing though, our driver was great. I have no complains of him. But the over all company could do a lot better for what they charge. read more

Eugenia was an excellent tour guide. She explained the history of the area as well as certain Mexican customs and folklore. She is also a calm driver who made our tour stress-free. We really enjoyed our day with Eugenia. read more

Excellent day trip wine tasting with Luigi, he talks knowledgably about wine, wine history in Valle de Guadalupe, just great experience, he even went out of his way to take us to a pharmacy to buy some much needed medicine. Highly recommended to anyone who want to have a great time!!! read more

Ojos Negros Wine and Cheese tour was probably one of my favorite parts of our stay in Ensenada! Seriously. Jorge was our tour guide and he makes you feel so welcomed and comfortable the second you step inside his tour bus. He gave us some brief history on the way to the wine tasting and was extremely knowledgeable of everything we experienced on the tour. Jorge was personable and respectful and truly wants visitors to enjoy themselves. He was such a pleasure and I would definitely hit him up again when we go back to Ensenada- tour or not! read more

We just took this tour with Ricardo this past weekend and it was so much fun! We had a wonderful time and learned so much about the wine making process.

My friends and I visited Ensenada for the first time and wanted to experience the vineyards. Luigi and Eugenia were fantastic hosts, picking us up at our remote Airbnb and shuttling us around the area to four different vineyards. They also shared a little bit of the history and stopped at the Museo of wine as well. The wineries ranged in size but all were very unique - and even the biggest wine snob amongst us was impressed by the selection. I can't recommend the tour enough. read more

Amazing tour! If you are a lover of wine, book this tour. Not only did we experience a personal tour but we also learned so much of the history of wine making. read more

We really enjoyed our tour to La Bufadora in Ensenada. It was a more personal way to see the sites with a local guide. Our guide was Omero and he was friendly and described everything along the way. The countryside was beautiful with farms, shops and amazing views on the way to La Bufadora. We got there before the bus tours so it wasn't very crowded and we were able to take some great pictures. Omero was very patient as we shopped for souvenirs. read more

This was our first wine tour in Mexico. The process was easy. We booked on google and , me being distracted, accidentally booked the wrong day. I emailed them and they were really accommodating. They knew my pick up location and were on time. Luigi was very knowledgeable about places in the area. He set up our route after asking what kind of wineries we were looking to visit. Before every stop he gave us a brief history of the place and the wine maker. We had a blast. In the end, he recommended a place to eat. He recommended the octopus cocktail specifically. And omg I'm so glad he did. It was delicious. !!! Overall it was a great experience. Will be booking with them again. read more
