Chocolate five ways - This tour helped highlight the various ways chocolate is enjoyed in Mexican culture, specifically in San Miguel de Allende. Our five stops on the tour included one of the oldest chocolatiers in town, enmoladas, and a chocolate and churros shop. Would recommend!

Great Tours everyone needs to take it - Veil was our leader on the tour and she was so informative and so excited about every place that we visited that we just loved her. She’s been living in SMA for several years and she has a well-rounded opinion about different places. I think without her we never would’ve enjoyed the city as much.

Fun and Interesting - My friend and I had a great time on this tour. Sam is knowledgeable, friendly and fun. We visited 4 places to taste difference types of food using chocolate (the 5th stop didn’t work out because it’s a tiny place and we were 10 people). I have dietary limitations and he offered alternatives at each place. It was nice to get history of foods as well as the city. We moved at a leisurely pace and enjoyed the sites between stops. Highly recommend this tour to anyone.

Sweet San Miguel - plus - Sam was great explaining how 1) cocoa plants got to Mexico and S America and 2) how Mexican recipes were developed to include chocolate not only in sweets but other dishes as well. What really embellished the tour was the extra discussion of local society, culture, and history of San Miguel. Great tour for education, tasty treats and taking in the extraordinary beauty of San Miguel de Allende.
