Beautiful little town with a big history. Our guide, Angie, was awesome! She took us to the best carnitas and ice cream carts in town.

Wonderful Day

Amy_G, Dec 2021

I really enjoyed getting out of San Miguel for a day and having a taste of an authentic Mexican town. Also learned a lot about the history of Mexico from my knowledgeable guide. My only suggestion is to ask in advance if guests would like to sample local street or market food. We did and it was one if the high lights of the day!

Thank you for the kind words. We hope to meet you back in town to keep exploring this amazing country!

A wonderous and info. filled tour!

Carolyn_K, Oct 2019

Our guide, Alejandro, was patient and deeply informed about the history of the town and the buildings in both Dolores HIdalgo and Atotonilco. My small group enjoyed the day and we all felt we learned another layer about Mexican history. We loved the reknowned tasting the unusual ice cream flavors in the Jardin at Dolores HIdalgo!
