Great history lesson and knowledgable guide - This was such a great tour. The guide was excellent. Very knowledgable of so many aspects of this holiday, the history and the current evolution of not only Dia de los Muertos but the evolution of Mexican culture and pre Hispanic religions and integration with other religions and cultures to what it has become today and how it is celebrated.

Informative tour about Día de los Muertos in SMA - Thus is one of the many tours we have taken with Follow Me Tours. As always, the guide was very knowledgeable about the history and customs of Día de los Muertos. I would recommend this tour and any of the other tours offered by Follow Me Tours.

Best Day of the Dead touring experience. - When I came back to San Miguel de Allende a year ago, I joined this tour and changed my whole perspective I had about Day of the Dead. This tour was informative as well as educational where I learned about cemeteries, camposantos, burials, altars, and more. As a plus, being able to walk into the crypts and going into one of the old Cemeteries in town was simply the best. The whole staff on this tour made me feel great, and happy to know that they keep this event year after year. Easy to identify the staff with their skulls shirts!!! Comparing with other tours I did about the date on México City, Michoacán, and Yucatán, this one, by far, was the best.
