Fantastic MTB trip with Armando! - I arranged a personalized tour with Armando which was a mix of riding up out of town, dirt road climbing, technical single track. Armando met me on time and we had a really great 3 hour ride through varied terrain and great views of Gto. from different vantages. He is a great and interesting guy. I will definitely go out with him again. I can't recommend him enough.

Amazing mountain bike tour of Santa Rosa - Our family had a great bicycle tour with Armando in the Santa Rosa mountains. The tour was prompt, courteous, and safe. Our family really enjoyed getting to know Armando and learn more about the mountains, the mines, and Guanajuato. Armando humored our fledgling Spanish speakers in the family by practicing Spanish with us. He was fluent in English and spoke perfect English with our non-Spanish speaker. A moderate level of fitness is needed, the biking is mostly downhill with a few gentle uphills. The tracks are technical in a few places, so some basic mountain biking skills are a good idea. Thank you Armando, it was a great experience!

Great Experience in Guanajuato! - Susana is an expert in the history of Guanajuato. His family Irene has direct connections with the city and its culture. Susana guided us throughout the city and taught us about the history of Guanajuato in a fun, interesting and interactive way. It was a pleasure to learn about the city and the history of Mexico in general from her. 100% recommended!

MTB ride in Guanajuato - It was nice ride in the mountains near the Guanajuato. A bit challenging for me - and that's why interesting. On the summit there is a beautiful view to Guanajuato. Also we rode near mines and Armando gave me some information about them

Mountain Bike Tour - Nice ride through the hills and mountains outside of Guanajuato. Mostly downhill on fire roads. Technically and physically easy. The guide was very knowledgeable of the area. Nice stop at a village bakery with fresh out of the oven buns.
