Enjoyed the tour with Miquel

Published on Dec, 2024

Miguel was a wonderful guy. Very knowledgeable mixed with great humor. Made me interested in finding out more of San Luis Potosi and Mexico.

Best tour to connect with the history of San Luis Potosi!

Published on Nov, 2024

My wife and close friend had arrived in Potosi days before the tour and had wondered around downtown, but it was not until Miguel, our tour guide, was able to passionately express the historic significance of Potosi did we feel connected to the sights and sounds we surrounded ourselves with. I recommend this tour for anyone wanting to go deeper into what San Luis Potosi stands for. Miguel did a great job sharing his love for history and his deep connection with his city. For that we thank you Miguel!

Amazing Tour and Guide!

Published on Nov, 2024

Amazing tour that I would highly recommend to anyone. One of the best guides who is incredibly knowledgeable and creates a fun and engaging tour. He let us ask so many questions and we learned so much! Go on the tour your first or second day in town for recommendations on what spots you should check out. We also did the Mezcal and Pulque tour and highly recommend you do that too.

Great tour guide

Published on Aug, 2024
