From Mexico City: San Miguel de Allende Full Day Tour

In a nutshell, San Miguel de Allende carries in itself the scent of nostalgia, one that takes you back to the Mexico of a more romantic era. Perched 6,000 feet above sea level, this city has long enjoyed the reputation of being a picturesque colonial haven. Depart from Mexico toward the city and bask in momentary glimpses of the Mexican landscape along the way. Pass by Queretaro, a bright and Baroque city, and visit the Aqueduct, the Cross ex-convent, and the historic center.

Continue to San Miguel de Allende and discover for yourself the ineffable allure. Admire the enchanting colonial architecture combining Baroque and Neo-Classical elements as you slowly unmask the history. The highlights here include San Miguel Arcangel Parish, Holy House Chapel, the Temple of San Francisco, and the Allende House and Institute. After the tour, you can wander the quaint colonial side streets and alleyways on your own. Sit down to taste the air and the cuisine, get some handicraft shopping done, slip into nondescript alleyways, and find hidden art galleries, or simply soak in the romance in the air.
