Overview

Led by a local certified Tequila Specialist, this guided tasting offers a unique and educational experience. Guests will learn about San Diego's history and its connection to Tequila.

  • Tequila Tasting

What to expect

Travelers will explore many of Old Town’s most iconic buildings while discovering their rich historical significance. Along the way, they’ll learn about the unique fusion of Spanish, Mexican, and American cultures that shaped San Diego. The tour also highlights native agave plants growing along the route—some of which are traditionally used to produce agave distillates like tequila. Visitors will stop at vibrant Mexican shops and enjoy a freshly made, handmade tortilla.

A key part of the experience includes learning about the history of tequila and its ties to San Diego. The guide will lead the group to the Tequila Museum inside El Agave Restaurant and Tequilería, home to over 2,000 different tequilas. The tour concludes with a guided tequila tasting, followed by a visit to the tequila shop downstairs, where the guide will be available to offer personalized recommendations for those interested in purchasing a bottle.
