'''Tequila train''' refers to a train service featured in hundreds of travel blogs and accounts, where tourists are transported from [[Guadalajara]] (the largest city in [[Jalisco]] state) to [[Amatitan]], a location 20 miles east of the town of [[Tequila]], Mexico. The train service, offered by a private company, is popularly known as the Tequila Train because it features tequila tastings and transports its passengers towards the distilleries of Amatitan and towards the town of Tequila. |
|||
The train is most popular during the yearly celebrations in Guadalajara, when it is impossible to get tickets -- these must be purchased days or weeks in advance. |
