So worth it!!
If you’re used to roadtrips the drive isn’t bad at all, you can sleep on the way over lol. It was all so worth it though, after picking up our other guests we had breakfast and headed over to Tolantongo. We felt so relaxed in the little pools we didn’t want to leave but being able to see the caves and waterfalls was so so worth it. This whole experience was awesome, thanks to our guide Israel who is super knowledgeable and very friendly! I highly recommend!

Perfect way to spend an afternoon learning appreciation for a traditional Mexican dish
Absolute must do experience when visiting. The food was fantastic and Miguel was so delightful, patient and informative. I have a new understanding of the preparation of mole and a higher respect for the process. Perfect for beginners. Also the property is stunning

Breathtaking Views
This is a MUST see, even though the van drive was about two hours going through some dilapidated housing. We did, however, get to stop at a local taco stand for lunch on the way. Breathtaking views as we approached the unbelievable, ancient city below us. Then we hiked down to the town to explore. You absolutely need good walking shoes for irregular streets and cobblestones.

An Unforgettable, Authentic Family Experience!
Our day at Rancho Xotolar was easily one of the highlights of our time in San Miguel de Allende. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with the kind of genuine warmth and hospitality that makes you feel instantly like part of the family.
The entire excursion was flawlessly coordinated. The trail ride itself was spectacular, taking us through breathtaking, ruggedly beautiful landscapes that show you a whole different side of the region. The horses were clearly well-loved, gentle, and highly responsive.
A massive thank you to the owner, Tomas, and to Leo and Felix, and all members of their kind and capable family, who went above and beyond to make sure our ride and ranch tour were safe, fascinating, and incredibly fun. Learning about the history and daily life of the ranch directly from them made the experience so much more meaningful.
To top it all off, we were treated to a phenomenal, fresh, home-cooked lunch prepared right there at the ranch. If you want an authentic, breathtaking adventure rooted in deep family tradition and hospitality, do not miss Rancho Xotolar. We cannot recommend them highly enough and hope to return for another unique experience one day!

Our tour guide, Sam, was fantastic! We got to experience local tacos and unique cocktails and had great conversation the entire tour. Sam was also able to point out so many local options for other dining experiences (bakery, chocolates, etc.). Highly recommended.

Very enjoyable experience
It's a great way to figure out the city. Felipe was very knowledgeable very friendly. I'm highly recommend doing this when you first get here especially if you are so little traffic gives you an idea on you surroundings. Felipe gave me a lot of comfort tell me a lot about the town that was safe to walk as a solo person and since I had the tour I've been wandering around all parts of the city. He was very fine to show me things on the map. Thank you so much loved it.

Informative and insightful Tour
Our guide Leo was wonderful! His knowledge of San Miguel was unparalleled as he is a native of this quaint, stunning town. He was able to take us around the major sites of the city and thoroughly explained the history of the area as well. I would highly recommend a tour with Leo should you visit San Miguel de Allende.

Marvelous Cooking Experience
Absolutely wonderful . David is so knowledgeable and we learned so much. Loved the recipes that we made and it was so great hearing about all the food history. Enjoyed cooking and seeing David's garden. Like to get him my email so he can send me the recipes we made together. He sent me a request for the email on Viator.

Excellent value, people and wine.
This proved to be an excellent adventure. Leo, our driver was both charming and informative.
The winery itself was an idyllic location in both landscapes and buildings.
This was paired perfectly (wine terminology) with the knowledgeable tour hosted by S Stephanie. She brought the story to life and added so much to our enjoyment.
Now throw in several very enjoyable tasting options and you have an experience that exceeded our expectations.

We were delighted when we learned that Sam would be leading this food tour. We met him a couple of years ago on another food outing and were impressed with his knowledge and enthusiasm. He makes the experience a lot of fun. Participants will have an opportunity to sample several traditional Mexican dishes and learn a bit of history at the same time.

Locations, food, and guide were amazing
Pasquale, the tour guide, was excellent. Friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible.
The food was excellent, especially the dessert flan. The 5 stops were more than enough for a hearty appetite. Consider it dinner, it was more than enough.
We were fine, but some folks with mobility issues need to know there are lots of stairs. Pasquale patiently waited and double-checked to ensure every person was ok.
This was my first food tour. Do it, the venues and food were great.

Worth a visit!
Alex was a great guide! Very knowledgable and friendly. He picked us up at the designated location in a car, and then drove us to the site where we boarded a bus. The site is really beautiful. The walk to the site is a little steep in places, but the scenery makes the walk enjoyable. Look for the leaf-cutter ants!

In the Mexican state of Guanajuato, San Miguel de Allende has long been a haven for artists, expats, and retirees drawn to the colorful and quaint Pueblo Magico (Magic Town). Fly over the beautiful center in a hot-air balloon or learn to make salsas, moles, and other regional specialties during a cooking class. And if you get tired of the easy life, other San Miguel de Allende tours amp up the energy by taking you hiking in the Sierra Gorda Queretana mountains.
