Tacos, tequila and more! - This was such a great tour with Sam, our guide. We were a small group of three on a sunny Wednesday afternoon. Sam met us at the first stop and was so great to talk to from the get go. All 5 stops on the tour were amazing, from a little rooftop restaurant to a fancy rooftop bar and a few neighborhood joints in between. All the stops had great vegetarian options for me. I had tacos with baby asparagus, a tostada with mango, jicama and onions, cheese enchiladas with mole, and a quesadilla with oaxacan cheese. The drinks were delicious as well, from a lime margarita, a tamarind margarita, and hibiscus juice to reposado and mezcal. I was super full by the time we were done. Sam was so kind and patient with all our questions and gave us a great orientation to the town of San Miguel. He also gave me excellent recommendations for local markets and restaurants to check out. He paced the tour very well so we had enough time at each stop and did not feel rushed, and also had a bit of time to digest the food from the previous stop before eating again at the next stop. I definitely recommend this tour and would ask for Sam to be your guide.

2024 San Miguel de Allende - This T&T tour was amazing!! Total of 5 restaurants which they were all so good. The tacos varied in filling & the tequila was served with different mixes, all in all it was a great tour, highly recommend and our tour guide Pascal was so knowledgeable of everything about San Miguel. My sister & I even went on a sunrise walking tour, yes it was early, with him and loved visiting the beautiful cobblestone streets around town. Thank you Pascal for showing us the beautiful town of San Miguel de Allende🇲🇽

A delightful experience/tour with a gem of a guide - Sam is the perfect historian/guide for Sam Miguel. He educated our group (4 people ranging from 43 to 71) with fascinating facts while leading us to terrific venues for great food and drinks. Who knew the Aztecs came from Alaska??? Who knew that women played heroic roles in the fight for independence ? (Of course they did, but Sam actually includes them in his narrative. ) Best fish taco I ever had; lovely food and drinks all around, and a very stimulating exposure to Mexican history. I'm not sure I'll eat another cricket while sampling mezcal next time, but I will definitely hire again Sam on my future trips to beautiful San Miguel.

Find the best hideaway spots and delicious food on this tour - This was even better than I expected. Sam was super knowledgeable about the area, local businesses, AND the history of the city itself. It was fascinating to learn more and we got to eat at several out-of-the-way places we never would have found otherwise. He was super cool about my wife's gluten allergy and making accommodations and we met some new friends. Highly recommend!

Fantastic tour! - We had an amazing time on this tour!! Sam was so much fun and so informative. We learned so much about the city that we wouldn’t have otherwise- so much interesting history and culture. He also pointed out other points of interest along the way- churches, mercados, panaderias, chocolate shops, etc that we visited throughout the week. All of the stops were wonderful and the food and drinks were top notch. He was as able to accomodate my gluten allergy at each stop. We would highly recommend this tour- great start to our week in beautiful San Miguel.

Amazing tour and guide! - I cannot recommend Sam enough for his knowledge of San Miguel, his attentiveness to detail and his flexibility for my partner, who is 4 months sober. It was so much fun and so yummy! It was a really wonderful experience!
