My friends and I weren't too sure of how the process would be since they picked us up after we walked across the border. We booked our rides through WhatsApp and the communication was super easy. They were super responsive, and the day before our designated rides, they shared the driver's number for us to connect directly. Our driver down to Valle was named Elias and made the whole process so simple! He picked us right outside of where we came out after crossing the border. He was super friendly and wanted to make sure we were comfortable for the drive. He told us a little bit about Valle and how he's lived there for 25 years. On my way back, I had a different driver, who was Natalie. She was super nice and the ride back was so quick, probably because it was the morning and traffic wasn't too bad in Tijuana yet. She was helpful in directing me to find the line to cross the border. Without the direction from her, I would have definitely been confused. They made this whole process so seamless! They were on time and available for all the questions I had leading up to the rides as well. I will for sure use them in the future any time I'm traveling somewhere driving distance in Mexico!

We added on a wine tour in the valley too. Ivan our driver, a native of the valley, was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the valley, even providing excellent restaurant recommendations.

They even suggested and helped us get a fast pass for border crossing that saved us 3 hours in crossing the border. Great team and service.

Big shout out to Eugenia as well for doing a fantastic job organizing the tour from start to finish. If you are in Ensenada and want a seamless wine route experience without the stress of planning, this is a great option. I would absolutely do this again.

He had a cooler of wine ready for us (3 bottles of white) and cups poured as we entered the van. Jesse (the driver) was really nice, helpful, and informative. He drove safely (no car sickness!) and got to us to the wineries without a hitch. We toured 4 wineries total, and could choose which ones we wanted, when we wanted to go. It was very flexible to our plans. We even added an extra 2 people and they booked an extra car just to accommodate us. My friend even forgot her purse in the car and he drove it back to us the next morning. We had such a good day and would definitely book with them again. $80 each person including transpo, wine, food (including light pizza lunch!) and snacks.

They are truly a 5 star business because they are THAT AWESOME! We booked the upscale wine tasting package and it was just the best day ever. Our driver, Jose Luis Blanco, was friendly, prompt, and just a nice and sweet guy. He made us feel safe and is just so knowledgeable as he is from Ensenada. It was just my bf and I so it felt like we had our own private driver. We went to three beautiful wineries in Valle de Guadalupe and we did not feel rushed as he patiently waited for us. The wineries weren't too busy since it was in the morning so it felt like our own VIP experience. On our way back to Ensenada he asked us if we wanted to stop for tacos or souvenirs in the downtown Ensenada area before getting back on the ship. He even let us stop at OXXO for snacks! Though we didn't do the taco and souvenir stop though we had plenty of time to do so, it was just so nice and thoughtful that he offered that! He was just the best driver! 20/10! The best part is, we were back on the ship at 3:30pm and the ship leaves at 5:30pm. They will make sure you are back with more than enough time which was my biggest concern! Even if we stopped for tacos and souvenirs, we were still back to the Ensenada area around 3:00pm from our tastings with enough time to do this and be back on the ship on time. Thank you so much to Jesse, Jose Blanco, and the entire team at Ensenada Excursions! I would love to try the massage add-on next time :) If you are looking for a fun, professional, and amazing excursion company, book with Jesse and his team at Ensenada Excursions!!!

The wines were fantastic, but what really made the experience stand out was the service. Everyone we interacted with was warm, welcoming, and genuinely excited to share their wines and story with us. Our sommelier was especially wonderful and made the tasting feel personal and relaxed rather than rushed or scripted. One of our favorite parts of the visit was the chocolate and wine pairing that my husband and I did together. Every pairing was thoughtfully put together, and it was so much fun discovering how the flavors changed and complemented each other with every sip and bite. The best surprise of the day? Finding out our sommelier was from the 805! As fellow Central Coast locals, it made the experience feel even more special and gave us an instant connection that we definitely weren't expecting to find in the middle of wine country in Baja.

They do have a "Michelin rated" restaurant inside the building, curious to see what the service there is. Overall, i would say there are so many other wineries around Valle de Guadalupe that offer better services/food and drinks.

Tucked away in what looks like an old bank, this little winery instantly pulls you in with its vintage charm. The moment I walked in, I couldn't help but notice the high ceilings, the old safe door still standing proudly in the back, and the way every corner was filled with some part of the wine story--barrels stacked neatly, bottles arranged on tall shelves, and rustic touches that make the place feel authentic and full of history. It's not a huge space, but that's part of what makes it special. There's something intimate about it--like you've discovered one of Ensenada's best-kept secrets. The decor has this old-school feel that pairs perfectly with the warm, inviting vibe of the place. You can tell that the people who run Santo Tomás love what they do. The staff couldn't have been friendlier--they greeted me with genuine smiles, offered insight into their wines, and made the whole experience feel personal rather than commercial. Even before tasting anything, I could tell the wine was going to be good. The atmosphere just set the mood perfectly. And sure enough, each glass had that balance of depth and flavor that makes you want to linger over it and enjoy every sip. Santo Tomás isn't flashy or modern--it's timeless. If you appreciate good wine, friendly people, and a sense of history in the places you visit, this spot is worth every minute. So if you ever find yourself in Ensenada, do yourself a favor and step inside. You'll leave already planning your next visit. Enjoy!
