5.00Our tour guide Omar was "on top of his game" all around. Omar was engaging and so knowledgeable about the history of San Miguel de Allende as well as all of the food we enjoyed on the tour. We loved the handout he gave each of us....showing us a bit of the teacher in him for sure. This was so helpful as he spoke about the history and the food of this region. We already knew a bit about SMA in general but Omar gave us some much more that we did not know which gave us a new perspective of the area throughout the ages! Highly recommend this tour and of course, highly recommend Omar as your tour guide.
Great food and history

5.00Our guide was Elisa who was a multigenerational local. Provided a deep history perspective on where these local foods came from, how they were names, and how they got upgraded over time. We were full with just a handful of plates. Also got some good recommendations on good quality, small places to eat.
Good food and local history

5.00Wow! We had a great tour with Vail - she shared so much culture and history with us in our relatively short time together. And the FOOD! We could barely eat it all, which made the price of the tour very fair, in my opinion. I have lived in San Miguel for 10 years and booked the tour for some guests. We all enjoyed it very much!
Elisa was great. She was...

5.00Omar led a great tour. We learned a lot about San Miguel, the history of Mexico, and Mexican cuisine. The food was as tasty as the town is charming.
