Guanajuato is a fantastic place to visit, so rich in history and so full of nightlife. It's really a must-do in Mexico. We had a guided tour arranged by Estigo. We were met by our guide, Alejandro, and driver Javier in the morning, right at our hotel. I don't recall if this was supposed to be a "private" tour, but it was just us. The van was clean, very comfortable and the driver was appropriately cautious. We drove through many of the tunnels that flow beneath the city. The history and development of them is a whole tour on its own. Alejandro is a gem of a guide! Formerly an architect, he was steeped in the history of everything we saw and had lots of interesting stories about the architecture and development of everything we looked at. My partner was a little worried about descending into the "mine shaft." But it's not an active mine and is clearly safe, well lit and really interesting! It's fascinating to see these operations that were literally started 500 years ago!
As for Estigo, you will find so many operators in Mexico, but Estigo is great! Communications are steady and clear, any issues were quickly resolved. Prices are competitive and the service is great. Don't think twice!
