Four of us chicas did a tour called Highlights of Jalisco last week with Mex-eco of Melaque. We left early on Tuesday drove to Tequila in comfortable van with our very knowledgeable guide Noel. Spent two nights in centre of town with plenty to see and do! Everywhere we went we were the only ones with safe protocols in place. We mined for opals close by and went to the very special Guachimontones round pyramids thousands of years old and found only in Jalisco. There were fields of agave everywhere, creating a sea of blue green. We learned the process of tequila from plant to bottle to tasting!! Also visited a women’s group making cosmetics and handbags from the fibre of this plant.
The last night was spent in Mazamitla mountain town with our cozy fireplace and jacuzzi.
The cost for the four of us was the same as if there had been 20 of us as Mex-eco wants to keep their guides working. Call them and support a local while you learn so much about your temporary home!
