imanhadelvalle.comGetting There
You still need your own passport (book or card) and FMM. The shuttle handles the vehicle side of things. We'll confirm pickup details closer to the date.
The Easy Option
We're arranging a round-trip shuttle from the San Diego border so you can relax, enjoy the day, and skip the drive both ways.
Meet at border lot
1:30 PM
Exact lot location will be shared closer to the date.
Shuttle departs
2:00 PM (sharp)
Please be on the bus by 2:00 — we can't wait for late arrivals.
Return shuttle
~9:30 PM
Departs the venue shortly after the farewell.
Back at your car
~11:30 PM
Approximate — actual time depends on border wait that night.
Driving or Staying Over
If you're driving yourself or staying overnight, plan ahead: Uber and Lyft don't reliably operate in Valle de Guadalupe. DiDi works in parts of the area but is hit-or-miss. The best bet is to arrange a private driver in advance — especially for the ride home after the wedding.
Ruta del Vino Tours
Valle-based; top-ranked on Tripadvisor with a documented track record handling 100+ guest weddings across multiple hotels. From ~$130 USD per group.
Baja Society Tours
San Diego–based, door-to-door wedding shuttle service with their own fleet (sedans to mini coaches). All-inclusive pricing: $319 sedan up to $699 mini coach roundtrip.
Ensenada Excursions and Tours
Best for hourly hire if you want a driver to bounce between wineries. 8-hour blocks from $187 (car) to $587 (minibus). Bilingual.
Most boutique hotels in the Valle (Bruma, Encuentro Guadalupe, Cuatro Cuatros, Adobe Guadalupe, Hacienda Guadalupe, etc.) can arrange transport for guests directly. When you book, ask the concierge about wedding-day pickup and return from Imanha — it's often the simplest option.
One important tip: book your return ride from Imanha before the wedding day. The Valle quiets down late at night and it can be hard to find a driver on short notice.
Where to Stay
Our Top Pick
Right next door to Imanha and our recommended place to stay for the weekend. Eliá has 13 villas in three sizes — from cozy 2-person villas to a family villa that sleeps 10 — with a total capacity of about 40–42 guests.
Book ASAP. Eliá is only holding our block of 13 villas through mid-June — first come, first served. After that, unbooked villas go back to the general public during peak vendimia (harvest) season.

Good to Know
Black Tie is the vibe — but please don't feel obligated to buy anything new. Any formal dress or suit you already have works perfectly.
Our venue is best suited for an adult celebration, so we're kindly asking that little ones stay home if possible. We hope this gives our parent guests a chance to relax and enjoy the evening with us.
Ceremony starts at 4:30 PM. Please plan to arrive 15-20 minutes early to find your seat.
September in the Valle is typically warm during the day and cool in the evenings. A light layer for after sunset is a good idea.
No — staff at the venue and most restaurants in the area speak English. A few words of Spanish are always appreciated though!
Most wineries, restaurants, and the venue accept US dollars and credit cards. Having a small amount of pesos on hand is useful for tips and small purchases.
Yes — Imanha has on-site parking. If you're taking the group shuttle, parking isn't a concern.
Please reach out to us directly as soon as you can so we can do our best to accommodate you.
We can't wait to celebrate with you in the Valle.
