5.00Jesus was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about Day of the Dead and the multicultural environment of San Miguel de Allende. We were lucky to visit the crypt as it was only open one weekend every year. We had a great time and we highly recommend the tour to anyone looking to learn more about the festival and beyond.
