I booked a tour online via Groupon. I received an email the day before the tour with instructions…read moreon where to meet, time, etc. The tour guide, Tadeo, met me as I exited the border crossing. I was the only customer, so I enjoyed having a personalized tour. Tadeo has a great personality for his role. He provided a detailed history of Tijuana's culture, history, and current state. The only place I would have liked to see that we didn't go was el Centro Cultural. I was tired from walking and the trip to Tijuana lol. I will definitely return to see more of the city and other areas in Baja Norte. While in Tijuana, we visited the Arch, landmark sign, market, Cathedral, restaurant for vegetarian entrees, Tequila tasting, souvenirs, restaurant with a great view of Avenida Revolucion, and the old Jai Alai forum

Contacted the whats app number and the phone number provided plus sent numerous messages, all remained unanswered and the phone goes to an answer machine that has not been set up to receive messages !!! Eventually my son managed to contact them via instagram to be told they had not received our booking , this is quite frankly a lie as they had already confirmed everything by mail and debited my account. Only solution offered was a full refund (a full refund for a booking thy had apparently not received) ! We spent an hour getting to the border , changed dollars to pesetas waited for almost two hours and then had to spend an hour returning to SD . A complete wasted day , big disappointment for my son who wanted to visit Mexico during our trip to SD from the UK, just a total disaster from start to finish. If you cancel after 24 Hours with this joke of a so called tour company you lose your money , they on the other hand can take your money, allow you to travel to the border for the tour , not bother their backsides turning up and then only offer you your money back. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE BADLY LET DOWN AND DISSAPOINTED

Our second tour with Aja Baja--it just gets better and better!…read moreKaren and Andres were so wonderful and gracious that this was a trip with friends, and not just a business relationship. The wineries were beautiful and fun; and the workers were helpful and considerate. But, what set this trip apart was having Karen and Andres as our tour operators and guides.

I cannot say enough great things about the Aha Baja Wine Tour that I was invited to for my friends…read morebirthday. From breakfast, to the fastest way to get back through the border and all the amazing stops in between, Karen and Andres had everything planned out. If you're looking for a phenomenally planned and intimate tour of the Valle, you have found the right place! Karen and Andres not only try every place to ensure its quality before taking their guests there, but they are also locals to the area. They know just about every restaurant and winery like they own them! Both are very knowledgable of the history of the area, so as you drive along the coast or through the mountains and valley you can ask them anything and they can tell you its background story. And because they know each place so well, they have great recommendations for everything! Another thing I really liked about their tour is their attention to detail. It seemed as if they knew what our tastes were and knew exactly where to take us. Karen was prepared with snacks when people were hungry and blankets and pillows when people were ready to take a power nap. They also took photos of everyone during the tour! How awesome is that? You can just enjoy the moment and not have to worry about keeping up with your camera! Aha Baja Wine Tours really took care of us like we were their family. They are one of a kind people and I would recommend this tour to anyone looking for a great time. The wine and food choices were fresh and spectacular! They really plan everything and all you have to do is enjoy your day. Don't hesitate to book one of their tours, you will love every second!

This continued on the actual trip. They had lots of interesting information to share, had an eye on all the details and overall they made us feel safe and comfortable so that we could enjoy the tour. I especially liked how they picked 3 wineries that were quite different but all had something nice to offer. The wine tour was very interesting and I really enjoyed the wine, but for me it was also a lot more than that. We got a very nice introduction to Mexico and saw some of the beauty that it has to offer. A perfect combination of a great wine tour, beautiful scenery and a cultural experience. I would definitely consider doing this trip again and I will recommend it to everyone. Even if you are not a big wine drinker, the experience in itself is really nice!

We recently took a full-day tour run by Ark Voyage & Tours based out of San Diego…read more The drive to Guadalupe Valley was uneventful (which is the best kind of trip to take). Once there, we visited a number of wineries, all of whom are producing some very decent red wines and even a few good whites. Our guide, Kurt, started at Vinas Pijoan where we sampled some excellent and usual red blends as well as a sweet dessert wine called "Manel" that wowed us with its raisin-y, chocolate-y goodness. We moved on to Hacienda La Lomita where a truly gifted winemaker showed what he could do with chardonnay, syrah and old-vine grenache grapes. There's no denying that he had talent and some very luscious fruit. That was followed by a jaw-dropping scenic Las Nubes lunch (and wine tasting). We also visited Quinta Monasterio, Trevista, Torres Alegre and LA Cetto for some short visits/tastings. Torres Alegre offered some remarkable aged wines at reasonable prices - a 9-year old Cabernet Franc/Merlot blend was selling for $45 and left whoever sipped it walking on clouds. LA Cetto produces value wines that can compete with many California wineries -- its Terra red blend cost $14 and could easily play in the California wine game. Kurt was well-versed in wines from around the world and specialized in his insights into Baja wineries. What we discovered was that the wines being produced in Baja are now easily as good, if not better than those being crafted in Temecula and came surprisingly close to Paso Robles quality. But what Baja uniquely offers is the experience of tasting wines in an entirely different cultural setting. The vast majority of visitors to Guadalupe Valley are Mexican, along with some Europeans and Asians. As close as it is to San Diego, relatively few San Diegans make the short trip to this wino otherworld. There are a lot of reasons, including concerns about safety, US restrictions on importing liquor from Mexico, language barriers along with an entirely different currency. While these concerns may have had some validity in the past, most are no longer issues. The merchants in the Valley all speak English, use U.S. currency along with all credit cards and the region is as safe as most places in San Diego County. Moreover, the roads are well-maintained and marked. Yes, it is a different country with different rules and customs. But that is what makes the trip there so exciting and, well, different. Ya gotta check this out. It is a great outing and Kurt made it effortless.

AMAZING - THIS SHOULD BE A "MUST DO" on your list!…read more I've been following Club Tengo Hambre for years - but finally decided we should do it. My friend treated she and I to the Valle de Guadalupe tour for my birthday! We showed up in San Ysidro and was greeted by the amazing "Ana" - if you go, please request her - she's so knowledgeable about the area and an absolute joy to be around all day. We walked across the border (super super easy) and met up with Alejandro (our driver). We stopped by a local taco spot followed by a trip down the coast. You get to see Rosarito and Ensenata before heading up in to the valle! We stopped at two wineries - one family owned (no one there except us) and the other was women owned - both were such a delightful, peaceful experience. The Wine? AH-MAZING!!!!!! Final stop - I won't ruin the end of the movie for you - but let's just say you won't be disappointed. Advice - you can get around with flip flops, etc. They recommend closed toe shoes but sandals (or your favorite wine tasting attire is perfect). Bring a light jacket just in case!

Violeta did a great job picking every place. Many times the food or drinks on tours are just okay. But we loved the breakfast tacos, the charcuterie board was one of the best I have had, and dinner was great and it had an amazing view of the sunset. The drive down to Valle De Guadalupe was very scenic. i was surprised at the quality of wine in Mexico. I had low expectations but we enjoyed the wines and the wineries in Mexico are very generous with their pours. I would highly recommend this if you have someone visiting or if you want to get a group of friends together to celebrate . Violeta was very knowledgeable and friendly. They also can arrange private tours as well.
