Bring good walking shoes 😝
This is a workout, but we loved it!!!
We got tour tour the city and learn about the families who built this city, while also enjoying the sights.
Our tour guide was simply amazing and he did a great job even sharing his insight on restaurants and shops.

Fun, Delicious, and Truly Memorable
My family and I had a wonderful time at our cooking class with Sam and Armando. I really appreciated how thoughtfully the experience was organized and how each person had a hands‑on role in bringing the meal together. I learned a lot and it was fun to get a taste of what it's like to work in a professional kitchen. On top of that, the food was amazing and it ended up being one of our favorite meals in SMA. This experience was one of the top highlights of our trip!

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...
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.

Jesus was Exceptional!
The drive from San Miquel de Allende to Guanajuato was delightful as Jesus filled us in on the tour itinerary and gave us a historical and cultural framework that perfectly set up our time on the ground in Guanajuato. Once there he led us through the very dense urban core of the city and we were able to enjoy the many architectural gems and the wonderful plazas and public space. Highly recommend this tour in general and Jesus in particular!

Great food drinks and company.
Omar was great and his commentary often bent the history discussion towards the history of food in Mexico which was a really interesting angle. Great mix of foods and drinks including beer tequila and mescal. Felt like we went to more places than advertised. Your fun may depend on your group (ours was great) but who signs up for tacos and tequila if they aren't down for fun? Definitely recommended.

Amazing night of gastronomy and local culture
What an incredible experience! We enjoyed a wide variety of traditional Mexican meals offered in the most beautiful restaurants throughout the city. Our guide Pascal was friendly, knowledgeable and also a very talented singer. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience San Miguel de Allende from a local perspective.

Great unique experience especially if you get Diego
Our guide was fabulous. We ended up with a private tour (lucky) and spent the day in a Kia Sedona which was very comfortable. Diego did an amazing job spoiling us, telling us about Mexico as well as explaining the locations we stopped. We loved the day because the experience was so unique. I was surprised though by how commercialized the area was. Based on photos, it appeared to be more restricted on number of guests. It actually is like the local water park but was still worth the time and money. Also of note, the water is not hot like a normal sulfur hot springs, nor does it smell. Its really like bath water. Lunch was good. Breakfast was okay. Buffet is at a local hotel and was pretty cold but lots of variety.

Best tour in Mexico!
We had an absolutely wonderful walking tour in San Miguel de Allende. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely flexible, which made all the difference for our group with both kids and adults. He told engaging stories that brought the city to life, adjusted the pace seamlessly, and made thoughtful stops along the way so everyone stayed interested and happy.
The kids were entertained and included (no small feat!), while the adults felt like we were learning something meaningful rather than just ticking off landmarks. It never felt rushed or rigid — instead, it felt personal, warm, and tailored to the group.
This was exactly the kind of tour you hope for when traveling as a family: insightful, relaxed, and fun for everyone. We’d recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone visiting San Miguel de Allende, especially those traveling with children or anyone who values flexibility and great storytelling.

Horse Trailride and Hotsprings.
This experience is fabulous! The scenery, the guide and co-owners, Beth, Catilano and Reyes, were exceptional. Ride through beautiful countryside, viewing mountains and canyons, breathtaking vistas. Then you get back to the ranch after a 6 mile trail ride, to a delicious homegrown and home cooked meal. They were more than happy to accommodate our vegetarian friend. Hard to say goodbye to new friends… but next came the hot springs portion of the day. Much needed for gringos after sitting a horse for a few hours!! Our day included the hot springs at Escondido - a beautiful tranquil experience on a Monday afternoon.
I look forward to returning when the wildflowers are blooming. Our host, Beth, was delightful. Vaya con Dios, my friends.

Fantastic trail ride and cultural experience
This was the highlight of our trip. I booked a half day excursion for my partner's birthday. We had such a fun day! It's so much more than just booking a ride. Thomas and his family are very welcoming and the day starts with a special Mexican coffee that is delicious, followed by learning to milk a cow (if you choose) making your own special Latte:-) The horses are fantastic..very surefooted and trustworthy. Thomas and all the wranglers make it a blast with suggestions, singing and general good cheer as you embark on a great ride down to the river and back with several different terrains and beautiful views of the countryside. On your return you are served a delicious homemade lunch in a beautiful spot not he property. One of the best meals we had the whole trip. Highly recommend for a family, small group of couple. You don't want to miss this experience!

Reliable, safe, comfortable and knowledgeable ride into SMdA!
Could not have been a more pleasant experience! It’s a decent length drive to SMdA; Luis and his vehicle were comfortable and safe, complete with water and cool A/C. I booked far in advance and was a little nervous (because I’m an over communicator) as his response was delayed, but not overly so… so a heads up if you’re like me, don’t worry, he will be there! :) Even booked a return trip with him which was just as delightful. And bonus.. Luis is so passionate about the history of the area and was able to recommend some must-do’s while were there.

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.
