One might say that I practically grew up in San Miguel Allende. It is where I learned to speak Spanish in my youth. My mother was an artist and every waking moment that I wasn't in school in Arizona, we were here! She painted and I studied Spanish at the Instituto Allende. We lived among the locals and submerged ourselves in the culture. I have seen the town grow. Progress changes everything yet San Miguel and its people have managed to preserve the essence of this treasure of a town. I have yet to meet a single person who once they have visited, hasn't returned. let me show you some of the not so well known places that still exist as they did 50 years ago, a different side of San Miguel. It's hidden treasures if you will. Thank You for taking the time to read this and regardless of where your travels take you, Happy Trails To You Betty L.

Overview of your San Miguel De Allende tour

In the 1970's I lived here with my mother, she painted and I studied the language and culture. I love to share my stories from then and now. San Miguel is a vibrant artists colony filled with historical monuments, galleries, and restaurants. Many of the locals run their shops and business from their homes. On this tour I can show you some of the public areas where women wash their clothes, walk through the park where local artists display their work. There are two open air markets not to mention the numerous vegetable and flower stands all over town. I am happy to customize a tour including any of the wonderful destinations San Miguel has to offer. If you prefer galleries and fine dinning, San Miguel has many wonderful rooftop restaurants and bars. I assure you a wonderful day ! Join me:)
