go with Jesus! - My husband and I loved our SMA tour with Jesus. It was amazingly informative and fun. He shared his love for him home town, the history of Mexico and San Miguel de Allende, his knowledge of architecture and showed us some off the beaten path things. I highly recommend Jesus when you want a great tour.

First day Must - Buenisismo! Went with my 14 yr old brother and he loved it too. We got to see SMA through a Local’s eye - which is the best way to travel. Even during the pandemic with limitations, it did not feel like it - so many beautiful places , facts to know and personal stories of the town. It went by fast. Definitely recommend and would even do it again. I recommend doing it the first day you arrive to SMA so you know exactly where you want to go the rest of your stay here.

Great job - Jesus did a great job and it was a good tour, professional and informative. Also I ended up being the only person who booked the tour for the day and Jesus was nice enough not to cancel, so I got a private tour for the same price as a group tour. Thanks again
