About Our San Diego Service Area

San Diego Tequila Tour operates from Old Town San Diego — the historic birthplace of California and the only neighborhood in the city where tequila culture, Mexican history, and California's founding story all live on the same block. Every tour starts at Rockin' Baja Lobster, winds past the Whaley House, climbs to the Old Town Tequila Factory rooftop overlooking the harbor, and ends at El Agave — a restaurant and tequila museum with over 2,000 bottles and a personal flight for every guest.

We run tours daily, year-round. Monday through Thursday: 3pm and 6pm. Friday through Sunday: noon, 3pm, and 6pm. Groups of 2 to 20 guests welcome on the standard tour. For groups of 25 or more, we offer private custom tequila tastings at your venue — we bring the experience to you. Tour price is $99 per person. Getting here from anywhere in San Diego is simple: rideshare is the move, and most neighborhoods listed are under 20 minutes away.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where does the tour start and how do I get there?

The tour starts at Rockin' Baja Lobster in Old Town San Diego. Full address and parking details are provided after booking. Rideshare (Uber or Lyft) is the recommended way to arrive from hotels in Gaslamp, downtown, Mission Valley, or anywhere else in the city. From most central San Diego neighborhoods, you're 10–20 minutes away.

What's included in the $99 per person price?

Five full shots of premium, additive-free tequila (a mix of blancos, reposados, and anejos), one fish taco (veggie or chicken available), chips with dip and salsa, guided Old Town history commentary, and expert tequila education throughout. You'll also receive a professional Google Photos link after the tour. That's it — $99 flat, nothing hidden. See all FAQs here.

Can we book a private tour for our group?

Yes. The standard tour accommodates groups of 2 to 20. For groups of 25 or more, we offer private custom tequila tastings at your venue — ideal for corporate events, large birthday parties, holiday parties, and convention groups.

Is this appropriate for people who are new to tequila?

Absolutely. Our guide walks through the differences between tequila types, how production affects taste, and what to look for when evaluating quality — in a way that's fun, not a lecture. People who show up as casual drinkers regularly leave as converts. Valid ID required. Must be 21+.
