While you are in Mexico City, do not miss the opportunity to visit one of the main colonial cities of Mexico: San Miguel de Allende, in Guanajuato. Which was declared the best city in the world in 2017. Its colourful streets and architecture, as well as its historical wealth, have made it one of the most beautiful places in the world.
We will leave in the morning from our meeting point in the centre of Mexico City. On our drive, we will see the landscape of Central Mexico. Once in San Miguel de Allende, we will have an hour-and-a-half guided tour where we will get to know the main attractions of the city such as the symbolic parish of San Miguel Arcángel, the garden, the Temple of San Francisco, the Casa de Allende and the Civic Plaza. We will visit the Handicraft Market, where you can buy typical handicrafts, elaborated mainly with paper maché, metals, and blown glass. During our tour you will also learn more about the history of Mexico; outside the Municipal Palace are the figures of Miguel Ignacio Allende, an important character during the War of Independence.
After the guided tour you will have free time to stroll the streets at your own pace and visit the famous galleries. You will have the chance to eat in famous restaurants or local markets. (Lunch not included) You can also go to the viewpoint to take amazing pictures of the town.
We will depart from San Miguel de Allende around 4:30 pm to drive back.
