The tour was very interesting and educational. it's a great way to get an overview and history of San Miguel, and to see the main attractions. Our guide was knowledgeable and fun. The only disappointing part of the day was the lunch. The vegetarian option was tamales, but they weren't particularly good, and one was too spicy, as was the mole sauce. Also, we did not get an appetizer, even though that was supposed to be part of the package. However, overall I enjoyed the tour and was glad I took it.

This was an informative tour. Our tour guide was hospitable also gave us tips for our stay and recommended places to eat. If you’re looking for something more factual on history dates this may not be the tour for you. It may also depend on your tour guide. Easy walk through town for us. We’re glad we took the tour.

I met my tour guide Leslie, who has been living in San Miguel de Allende already over 10 years and became a citizen of Mexico as well. From talking to him, I understood, how much he loves the mexican culture and how much he likes to share his great knowledge of local history, architecture and living style. These 3 hours went super fast while listening to him and laughing about his jokes. He gave also the answers to my practical questions. Great tour and wonderful tour guide. I enjoyed it a lot!!!
