If you book directly in their page, you need to make sure an email confirmation is sent to you. Big watch out as the page accepts payments and no email is sent. I had to argue for an hour with the payment done. In a second visit, because they are the only tour, I had another bad experience, i paid a 900 pesos tour, visiting 5 locations in 5 hours, during the tour they informed that the tour was only 3 locations, and since I booked via Hotel Rio they cannot do anything about it, off course they never paid back the difference. I do not reccomend this, tricky site, tricky staff.

We had an amazing walking (with one taxi) food tour with Diego! My husband and I love exploring the local food culture and he took us to some great local markets we never would have been able to navigate on our own. We tried tacos, meats, fruits and other treats. At the places he picked he knew the owners. Diego even brought his own plates and silverware for us. He is really knowledgeable about the history of the food culture of San Miguel De Allende. He also went with us to the local craft market. All in all a great day!

Things could not have been better at Tres Raices today. The grounds and facility are drop dead gorgeous- an oasis in the middle of nowhere outside San Miguel De Allende. We arrived a few minutes early and we were taken to a comfortable seating area and offered a glass of white wine while we waited. Our guide Isabel effortlessly took us on a short walk through the grape vines up to a lovely observation area that overlooked the vineyard. She promptly presented us with two wines to taste and told us about them and the grapes that are grown here. We were then taken to a unique antique door from India where we entered into a gorgeous hallway and made our way to the production area before descending into the climate controlled cellar. The tour was a such a seamless experience. Next came the most amazing and delicious five course gourmet tasting menu paired with excellent wines. The entire experience and food would rival any high end restaurant almost anywhere. Isabel was not only knowledgeable about the wine but the food as well. She explained in detail each course and how it was prepared. Having been to Italy and France to learn about wine making, Isabel knew what she was talking about. I won’t go into specifics of each course but we started out with seared tuna, followed by pork belly, beef and mushrooms, mini wagu beef burger and a refreshing desert. Each course was accompanied by a generous pour of the paired wine. Just an incredible experience! All COVID-19 protocols were strictly enforced!

This was a beautiful area of Mexico. We would have enjoyed it a whole lot more if it had been in English as we had been told. Signed up for an English guide and got a guide who only spoke Spanish. AND it was not just us, though in the description it says it is privare. If you plan to go, be sure you are informed in advance what to expect. You will walk over slippery paths and through sometimes thigh-high rapids. You will want water shoes and maybe a change of clothes. We weren’t given any of this information when we signed up. The night before, we were told the tour would be leaving at 6:45 instead of 8 and asked if we had water shoes... a little late!
9. Tequila Tasting
To better connect those who stay here with the true spirit of San Miguel, we frequently host small experiential workshops. These may range from intricate crafts with resident artisans to salsa-making adventures that begin in the market, gathering fresh peppers and herbs alongside locals in the know.

The hotel's high marks in recent travel magazines are well-deserved. The room was lovely. A mix of hip plus Mexican. The courtyard, restaurant and bar likewise kept in impeccable condition. What truly made the stay successful, however, was the hotel's team. Everyone, regardless of position, was extraordinarily accessible without being cloying. Questions were answered, informed opinions offered when asked, and everything done with professional yet personal polish.
