Discover San Miguel through the eyes of a local on a walking tour designed to be your perfect introduction to the city. More than just another walking tour, this experience combines history, architecture, art, traditions, local stories, hidden corners and everyday life in San Miguel.

Led by a local certified tour guide, explore colorful cobblestone streets, beautiful plazas and some of the city's most iconic landmarks. Discover the history behind the famous pink Parroquia de San Miguel Arcángel, walk along picturesque Aldama Street, and learn how San Miguel has transformed through the centuries.

Along the way, visit historic buildings and unexpected spaces, including a former convent that is now a beautiful boutique hotel featuring an impressive collection of Mexican folk art. Enjoy wonderful views of the Parroquia from its terrace.

We'll also visit El Chorro, one of the most historically important areas of San Miguel, and finish at the colorful local and artisan markets, where you'll experience a more authentic side of the city and can stay afterward to explore, shop and enjoy the area at your own pace.

During the tour, enjoy a fresh fruit drink at the local market and receive personalized recommendations for restaurants, rooftops, museums, shopping and things to do during the rest of your stay.
