Baja Culinary Expedition - A Journey Through MICHELIN Guide Mexico 2025

The stars have aligned in Baja.

Back by popular demand after last year’s sold-out debut, our Michelin Guide–inspired expedition returns to Valle de Guadalupe for another extraordinary cross-border culinary adventure. Once again curated and hosted by Baja Wine + Food founder Fernando Gaxiola, this all-inclusive experience celebrates the restaurants and wineries that continue to earn global recognition.

This year’s journey takes you deeper into Baja’s Michelin story, with sparkling brunches, chef-led pairings, and multi-course dining at Michelin-recognized restaurants, alongside intimate reserve tastings at some of the region’s most iconic wineries.

What awaits is more than a day trip—it’s your chance to be part of the movement that has made Valle de Guadalupe one of the most celebrated food and wine destinations in the world.
