Finca 18 Puerto Vallarta Tequila Tour + Chocolate Pairing

3.Finca 18 Puerto Vallarta Tequila Tour + Chocolate Pairing

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 393 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $89

At Finca 18, guides including Mario, Greg, Emily, and Alex show you a 12-acre family ranch, agave nursery, ovens, and distillery. You will taste five or more agave spirits with chocolate, guacamole, and ranch-made snacks. The small group setting feels personal, but the ranch is about an hour from central Puerto Vallarta.

“We were looking for a fun off the beaten path experience. This far exceeded our expectations! This is a very small production place. We live in the wine country and only go to small family owned places. This is all of that and more! After a ride out to the ranch in a very cool and comfortable van, we were met by Greg. You will absolutely love him. He’s fun, friendly and so knowledgeable about his craft. You will enjoy agave based spirits much more than you did before, after your time with Greg. Do yourself a favor and add the chocolate pairing to your tasting when you get there.…”

The Agave fields are beautiful and it's really demands respect after learning the whole process and how Tequila is still mostly manual labour. Vising the destillery was very interesting and really set a lot of misconception straight And then we started tasting!! vVery important note : Have a good breakfast before the trip because lunch is planned quite late and you don't want to start drinks ng on an empty stomach!! The stop in Tequila was really fun! it just so happened that there was a tequila festival going on…”
