This was an BEST bachelorette trip.The five of us went on a private tour had wine all day it was amazing with thie drink in our hands and the views where beautiful. The staff was also top notch they always did their best to keep us having fun and comfortable while also feeling safe. then when it was time to wind down all five of us were able to have a massage all at the same time so no wait time and we were able to keep our trip going.
It's an excellent service, especially considering the short time available for cruise passengers. They provided us with an excellent tour and ensured we were back at the port on time so we wouldn't miss our cruise. I highly recommend them.
We ended up doing Guadalupe Wine Route Tour during our visit and it turned out to be a solid choice. From the start everything felt safe and well organized, which made it easy to relax and enjoy the experience. We would definitely do this again next time.
The Valle de Guadalupe Wine Tour with Ensenada Excursions is great for cruisers. Thanks for these words!
We booked a private Valle de Guadalupe wine tour from the Ensenada cruise port through Viator, and it was hands down the best decision of our cruise. Meeting our driver was easy — he was waiting just outside the port with a sign and clear instructions were sent ahead of time. No confusion, no stress. Within minutes we were on our way to Valle. The entire day felt relaxed and personalized. We were able to visit beautiful wineries at our own pace without being rushed or stuck on a crowded bus. Our driver was nice guy, friendly, and very local about the area. We felt safe. Wine was good. cheese awesome This was so much better than booking through the cruise ship. Better value, private experience, and no waiting around for large groups. Plus, we made it back to the ship with plenty of time t spare. If you’re stopping in Ensenada and considering a wine tour in Valle de Guadalupe, skip the ship excursion and book this instead. Highly recommend!

Went with a group of 5 on Private Wine Tour with cruise port pick up! We got to pick our places for wine and make stops for olive oil and cheese. We loved it and Alfredo was great guide full of recommendations. Much better than canned Carnival Tour!
Thank you for the great review! We’re so glad you and your group enjoyed the private wine tour and the flexibility to choose your stops, including olive oil and cheese tastings. Alfredo will be happy to hear your kind words—he loves sharing recommendations and making the day special. We truly appreciate you choosing a private experience with us and hope to welcome you back again!
We did this private Valle de Guadalupe wine tour with a group of 4 friends while stopping in Ensenada on a Royal Caribbean cruise, and it turned out to be a perfect day. Pickup from the cruise port was simple and well organized. Our driver was waiting for us just outside the port with clear instructions, and the vehicle was clean and comfortable. The drive into the wine valley was scenic and felt very relaxed. What we loved most about this tour was the flexibility. Since it was a private experience, we weren’t locked into a rigid schedule or crowded group. We visited several wineries at our own pace and also had time to stop and buy local olive oil and incredible cheese, which ended up being one of the highlights of the day. Our driver was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everything ran smoothly without ever rushing us. He handled the timing perfectly so we could enjoy the tastings and still make it back to the ship with plenty of time before departure. This was so much better than booking a cruise excursion or a large group wine tour. If you’re cruising into Ensenada and want a laid-back, private way to experience Valle de Guadalupe, this tour is absolutely worth it.
