Mi Mexico Lindo Tequila Tour

Quintana Roo · Mexico

8 story sections

A Cozumel trip would not be complete without tequila – that liquor from the agave, sacred to the Aztecs, has a rich history in Mexico. The blue agave’s tequila is still sacred to Mexicans and tourists alike – and should not be missed. In an open-air building sit rows and rows of tequila bottles. The tour is interesting and you will love the tastings, and children Will have honey-based drinks from melipona bees which is an endemic species of Yucatan that has no stinger.
