Wonderful evening of music, dance, and laughs - Thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment, music, dancing, and laughs. Little odd to receive a sales pitch to buy individual roses, but would definitely recommend. Ours was entirely in Spanish, which while we understood fine and enjoyed, it could be any issue for other non-speakers. Unsure if English is even available. Possible they tailor to audience. Very talented group, glad to have done it

Great Experience - The musicians were talented, full of energy, and had the audience participating with them. The presentation is in Spanish and requires climbing up and down stairs. Optional offers: As part of the experience they had a professional photographer who offered to take four pictures for approx. $5. They offered sampling of local drinks, and offered flowers to share with your loved one(s) for approx $8. For me, one of the best memories in Guanajuato.

Callejoneadas - The ambiance was great as well as the musicians. Very talented and very entertaining. Highly recommend to do at least once. Just keep in mind you will be walking a lot so make sure to have your walking shoes on. Overall a 10/10 experience.

Large group, missed out on the charm of the tour. - I wanted to like it, I liked the premise of it: students trying to make a living while bringing people for a walk, and entertain them with music. Maybe it’s a cultural thing, and it probably is, however I found that the best part was the first 10 minutes, where we were all seated on the church steps listening to the music and singing along. For the rest, the group was way too large (about 70 people) for the narrow passageways of the town; if you end up at the back of the group you’ll miss most of what’s going on. I also felt pressured to buy things, be it drinks, flowers and ribbons. Again, it may be cultural, as at least half of the people purchased something. I’m guessing going on an earliest tour might be better as I’ve heard it’s normally not that crowded.
