Description

Discover a different side of San Miguel De Allende on this walking tour with a bilingual guide. Visit the old, quiet, and romantic part of the town, walking through the cobblestoned streets and past colorful houses with a picturesque blend of architectural styles. Meet your guide and be introduced to the town’s historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, filled with buildings from the 17th and 18th centuries. Behind half-open doors, see Baroque and neo-Gothic mansions, many of which function as boutique hotels, designer shops, and art galleries today. Walk through the winding paths of the tranquil Parque Benito Juarez with colorful flowers and benches under shade trees. Then see the fountain of El Chorro near which lie many old public washing stations, some of which are still sometimes used. Next, go to the viewpoint of Mirador de San Miguel de Allende for panoramic views of the city, from the towering pink spires of Parroquia de San Miguel Arcángel all the way to the dry hills of the Guanajuato countryside in the back. Before ending the tour, visit the house where El Pípila, a local hero who played a significant role in the struggle for Mexican independence, was born.
