of Amatitan (lasting 1 hour and 30 minutes), snacks and
drinks (open bar) are offered and you can listen mariachi
music on the train. also, there is a narration of the history

On the train you have the attention of the porters and hosts to
make the trip a pleasant one. Upon arrival to Amatitan, you board
the buses that take you to the "Hacienda San Jose Del Refugio".
Later you will visit the manufacturing area of tequila, including
the steam ovens, where the "Agave" is cooked. Then you go to the
old distillery from the last century, where you can see the "Tahona",
pulled by a mule and the ancient vats. After that, it is still
time to visit the museum where a video is shown that illustrates
the everyday tasks of the hacienda, and the "Jima (cutting) of
the Agave".

After arrival in Tequila, you will be offered lunch (buffete-style)
with typical Mexican dishes, with a show of folkloric dance, "Suertes
Charras" and impressionists, along with mariachi music. There
is a dance contest where the winning couple wins a gift from our
hosts. The day ends dancing and singing in a kind of "Fiesta Mexicana"
in gardens among trees, flowers, plants and animals. Later you
will be transferred back to the train station by bus and the train
will arrive in Guadalajara in the evening. Our driver will wait
