This was a great tour I would definitely recommend it if you are an art lover/collector visiting San Miguel de Allende. We were on a short trip over new year to this fabulous place, Arturo agreed to take us out on New Year’s Eve to visit four different artists. He collected us from our hotel and drove us out into several areas of the city to meet 2 painters and 2 sculptors in their homes or studios. Just visiting these different areas which you wouldn’t normally have access to was an experience in it self. Arturo spoke good English and gave us a background history into art in the city and of the artists we were meeting. I own an art gallery based in the UK and was really surprised how strong all four of these artists were. They had all spent years developing their own practice, techniques and it was fascinating hearing each artists talk about what inspired their work. We did purchase a couple of pieces and could easily have bought from any of the artists we visited. We will definitely be visiting some other of Arturo’s artist/galleries when we return to SMA.

We were disappointed in this tour, inasmuch as many of the places that were on the itinerary -- two museums and the national theater -- were closed. And they've been closed for a long time due to Covid. Our tour guide said, "we'll need to cut the tour short"...we suggested we visit a winery on the way back, but this came from us not him. The guide himself was knowledgeable about the history of the location, which is why this isn't a 2-star, but the owner, Jesus, should either have not booked us on the tour at all or at least informed us that after a one-hour+ drive many of the destinations would be unavailable.

I've always been a fan of Kahlo and Rivera's art, so it was an incredible experience to visit their home and studio. While they both lived there for many years, Kahlo is the star of the show here; that being said, there is not a large collection of her work here (much of it is in art museums and galleries), but there is a small but insightful selection of her early work and "rough sketch" materials. What was really incredible to see was her workspace and personal living quarters; there is also a small gallery of her medical equipment and dresses that she featured in her paintings. Most of the information in the museum is in English and Spanish. At the time of my visit, the museum had reopened after the lockdown but with restricted ticket times to keep crowd sizes small. Some sections of the house were under renovation as well, but the studio, Kahlo's night and day bedrooms, and the beautiful garden were accessible.
