Terrific tour! - Elisa was a wonderful guide. A friend from Minnesota came to visit, and I booked the tour to get her some background on this beautiful city. Elisa is very knowledgeable, and having grown up in San Miguel, she provided some extra insight into the culture and traditions of Mexican families. I highly recommend this tour!

Amazing historical tour with a fantastic local guide - We took the Landmarks and Lunch tour with our 5 star guide, Elisa Torres, who brings her many generations of history and family life in San Miguel de Allende to turn this tour into a extremely unique and exceptional experience. Beyond her extensive knowledge, Elisa is tremendously personable and it was a pleasure spending time with her on this very worthwhile tour of central San Miguel.
Thanks Elisa for a fantastic afternoon.

SAN Miguel, the Heart of Mexico - Great tour hosted by Sam. The city is beautiful and has a ton of history. We have been to the city before a few times over the years so we have a bit of knowledge and understanding of it. But with Sam our guide, we learned so much more. He is an American that moved there and has become a first rate local. As you can see the love he has for San Miguel. Overall the tour was fantastic, the provided lunch was fantastic and the host Sam was fantastic. If you want to have a fun time and see this great City, take this tour and ask for Sam.

A wonderful day in San Miguel de Allende - Our tour guide, Elisa Torres, gave our group a most interesting and enjoyable tour of beautiful San Miguel de Allende. Born and raised in San Miguel, Elisa imparted not only her knowledge of the city and its history but did do with a heart to that spanned the many generations of her family and their real life. We saw lots of architecture presented with the story the peoples that brought it here from churchs to revolutionaries, and the dwellings they inhabited making the current beautiful city, feel as if are were back in time. It ended with a wonderful lunch that exhibited traditional delicious foods chosen to depict their true heritage, with delightful conversation regarding the good and how connected their families remain to it this day. Bravo, I Recommend Elisa Torres as a tour guide for anyone who wants to get a glimpse of this beautiful city.
