Tequila Route: How to get from Guadalajara and what to do for a weekend

Logistics and strategic transportation

Planning a getaway to the heart of Jalisco is much easier than it seems if you master the transportation logistics from the state capital.

For university budgets that seek efficiency, the most viable option is the bus that leaves from Guadalajara’s Old Central Station, which offers regular departures every hour and drops you off in the center of town in just over ninety minutes for a cost of between $200 and $300 MXN per trip.

On the other hand, if what you're looking for is a premium experience, Tequila Express offers packages that include the train ride and visits to emblematic distilleries such as Casa Sauza or Orendain, with costs starting at $2,500 MXN.

Experiences in distilleries and authentic tours

Once inside Magical Town, Distilleries are a must-visit stop. There are full-day economic tours departing from Guadalajara for approximately $790 MXN, which usually include transportation in a pickup truck, visits to agave fields, and tastings at traditional distilleries. For those who prefer specific brands, the tour to José Cuervo’s distillery (La Rojeña Factory) costs approximately $1,050 MXN, while the tour at Casa Sauza is around $840 MXN per person.

Tentative budget for a weekend (2 days, 1 night)

Our platform is designed for the modern traveler who values transparency:

  • Transport (Redondo by bus): $500 – $600 MXN.
